ChatGPT Goes Dark: Global Outage Leaves Users in the Digital Cold
OpenAI has confirmed a significant service disruption affecting ChatGPT, preventing users from logging in, creating new accounts, or accessing their chat histories. The outage, which began on Wednesday evening around 8 PM ET, represents a total breakdown of the platform's core functionalities. While engineers work on a fix, both free and premium subscribers are finding themselves locked out of the AI service, with previous conversations remaining inaccessible until the system is restored.
