Update, 8:54 p.m. ET: OpenAI says the issue is now fully resolved. The original story follows below. OpenAI has confirmed that users are encountering errors when trying to log in to their accounts or create new ones. Here are the details.
OpenAI recently announced an ongoing issue affecting ChatGPT users, making it difficult for them to log in or create new accounts. This problem was reported on OpenAI’s system status page around 8:03 p.m. ET, and the company confirmed the issue shortly after. As of now, all ChatGPT signups and logins are reportedly down, causing frustration among users worldwide.
Reports of the outage have increased on Downdetector, and users on X are sharing their experiences, stating that even logged-in users cannot use the chatbot. When tested, OpenAI's Mac app seems to function properly, but the web-based version occasionally fails to load chat history, account projects, or generate responses. The outlet will continue monitoring the situation and provide updates once OpenAI releases more information or declares the issue resolved.
