Major outage reports affect multiple AI chatbots, with users unable to access services including OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Codex, Anthropic’s Claude, and xAI’s Grok. Several outlets cite user reports and outage-tracking sites showing intermittent or widespread errors when attempting to use these platforms.
According to the Verge, issues begin around 11AM ET, with ChatGPT returning error messages and OpenAI’s status page noting elevated errors across ChatGPT and Codex. The IOL and NDTV also report that users experience access problems across ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. The Independent similarly notes that some users report problems with rival systems alongside OpenAI.
OpenAI later indicates that the affected services have recovered, though coverage describes a period during which users encounter disruptions. Across outlets, the main differences are in emphasis—some focus on the breadth of impact across competing chatbots, while others center on OpenAI’s status page and timing of the elevated errors—without providing conflicting claims about the core outage reports.
