ICT Desk
OpenAI’s generative AI chatbot, ChatGPT, is currently undergoing significant disruptions, preventing users from engaging in chats or accessing their previous conversations, reports NDTV.
Nearly 4,000 users had reported problems on the outage tracking site Downdetector, it said.
The outages seem to be affecting not only ChatGPT but also other OpenAI services, leading to speculation that the GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini models are down, causing the wider disruptions. Users have been sharing their experiences and reactions on platforms like X.com and Instagram.
In a recent podcast appearance, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman shared his vision of a future where AI surpasses human intellect, saying this shift will feel like a natural part of life for future generations.
"My kid is never going to grow up being smarter than AI," Altman commented on the Re: Thinking podcast with Adam Grant, acknowledging that AI will outperform humans in many areas. "Of course, it's smarter than us. Of course, it can do things we can't, but also who really cares?" he added.
