OpenAI’s artificial intelligence ChatGPT is back online after the chatbot briefly went down for some users on Tuesday.
According to an update on OpenAI’s status page, the company previously said it was “experiencing issues” including “increased ChatGPT error rates.”
On Tuesday night, OpenAI announced that these issues have been resolved.
“Earlier today, some users temporarily encountered issues using ChatGPT due to a routing misconfiguration,” OpenAI said in a statement to CNBC. “It’s fixed now.
About 3,000 people reported problems with the chatbot on Tuesday, according to Downdetector, a website that tracks outages.
The outage comes days after OpenAI disclosed a security breach at Mixpanel, one of its data analytics providers.
The breach compromised user information such as name, email, and other details associated with the OpenAI API.
OpenAI did not say how many users were affected, but said in a blog post that the attackers “exported a dataset containing identifying information and insights for a limited number of customers.”
AI Lab launched ChatGPT three years ago, sparking the AI boom. As of October, OpenAI announced that more than 800 million people use chatbots every week.
