🤖 ChatGPT users can breathe easy again! The AI chatbot resumed service Tuesday after a brief outage that temporarily left thousands in the U.S. unable to access its popular interface. According to Downdetector.com, over 13,000 users reported issues at the peak before reports dropped to 309 by 4:33 p.m. ET.
🚨 OpenAI, ChatGPT's parent company, swiftly addressed the glitch: "We've identified the issue, applied mitigations, and are monitoring recovery," their team announced. While Downdetector aggregates user reports, the actual number affected may differ – think of it like your group chat blowing up when the Wi-Fi drops during finals week 📉.
💡 Pro tip for digital natives: Always have a backup plan! As one Reddit user joked, "Guess I'll actually have to think for myself next time." Whether you're drafting essays or coding projects, remember – even AI needs coffee breaks ☕️. Stay tuned for updates!
