The popular AI assistant ChatGPT, and image generator Sora, suffered significant downtime as part of a major OpenAI outage today, June 10.

Downdetector showed reports regarding a ChatGPT outage started shortly before 12am PDT overnight and into June 10. This wasn’t the first time we’ve seen ChatGPT go down, with an outage also occurring back in December 2024.

The downtime in December was around four hours, with another outage in June 2024 lasting around five hours. Today’s outage lasted more than eight hours.

Are we going to be getting a lengthy outage every six months now? It’s sure to spark an internal review at OpenAI as it will want to avoid outages like this in the future.
