According to OpenAI, the outage is classified as a ‘partial outage,’ which has affected 12 components of ChatGPT that are experiencing degraded performance. Users have reported losing access to conversations and projects — some even claimed their chat history was wiped entirely.

Sources indicate that the issues are not confined to ChatGPT alone; similar problems have been observed with competing platforms. For instance, reports for Google Gemini surged from almost none to around 90, while issues with Claude AI increased dramatically from about six to 169. Microsoft Copilot also experienced a rise in user reports from one to 99.

OpenAI acknowledged the ongoing situation and stated they are investigating the underlying issues affecting their services. As they work towards a resolution, impacted users remain frustrated and vocal about their experiences on social media.

“We are currently experiencing issues,” said a spokesperson for OpenAI. The sentiment among users is reflected in comments such as, “Chatgpt down? Total history just wiped…” indicating the extent of dissatisfaction among those affected.

This outage comes at a time when reliance on AI tools is growing rapidly across various sectors — highlighting the potential consequences of service interruptions. The fact that multiple platforms are experiencing simultaneous outages raises questions about systemic vulnerabilities within these technologies.

While OpenAI continues its investigation into the matter, details surrounding the root cause remain unconfirmed. Observers will be keenly watching how this situation unfolds in the coming hours and days.
