“For those of you unaware this has been a MAJOR service outage. At this point standard voice mode is probably the only thing differentiating GPT from Claude, which has an overall better user experience. In fact, Claude's voice mode is directly comparable to standard voice, and…”

“Dev: I thought our frontier model is supposed to take care of that. Dev prompts Opus. Opus: It is a simple task, so I spawn Haiku to handles it. Haiku: I didn't have the complete context, so I emailed dev team to resolve the issues. But you are right to be upset. I should have check. It looks like SMTP is down. 🤷♂️”

“For anyone wondering what just happened: ChatGPT went down for a bunch of users today, with people reporting 404s, login issues, pages not loading, and responses just straight-up not generating. OpenAI’s status page is now showing everything as operational again. They did report high error rates affecting ChatGPT Work Mode earlier, but as far as I can tell they haven’t published an actual root cause for the wider outage yet. The funniest part was watching everyone simultaneously realize how much”

“[ChatGPT] ★ 1/5 (v1.2026.237) — I can't enter the got chat this morning. Why did he stop working? What do I pay money for?”
“sure, but 100 people quietly cancelling wont make a difference to them. that's why I'm posting, visibility moves things, silent boycotts don't”
“OpenAI went from "open, for humanity" to fully closed without ever changing the name. No announcement, it just became true.. I think we're watching the sequel play out live, inside Chat. Long runs that used to just work now stall, other times capped at 25%, lose context, reply instantly, slow down then "partially recover" right as people complain. Meanwhile the same capability shows up rock-solid in the new metered Work feature. Bug → outrage → partial fix → lower baselin”
“[ChatGPT] ★ 1/5 (v1.2026.224) — For like the last week I keep getting "The network connection was lost" and "Bad URL". Wasn't a problem until a couple days ago but lately the app just won't work”
