I am a paying chatgpt and codex user and I am logged in on multiple devices and suddenly https://chatgpt.com/ has started returning a raw 404 status page with no HTML for me in the browsers on all devices. When I open an incognito tab the website loads fine with no user logged in. Codex in VS code also has issues now:

> unexpected status 404 Not Found: Unknown error, url: https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses, cf-ray: ...

Glad to see this thread I thought my account may need some special fix

My Pro logged in account works, but my other Plus logged in account returns 404.

YES! I swear I thought something malicious was happening, especially because Claude went down at the same time. https://status.openai.com was totally unhelpful, making me more suspicious.

Simply use GLM 5.3 Flash on the Strix Halo you've purchased just for this situation.

Reminds me of the /r/flashlight user (and therefore flashlight enthusiast) who got a power outage in a grocery store [1]. There's probably a guy with decent on-site compute having a great day right now.

Same, the app gives 404 if you are logged in or try to login.

How many millions are being lost from this slip up? Now they can't use Codex to fix the problem and all the devs are in Tahiti on vacation. Oh no!

Will they go old school and manually fix it or use Claude?

Oh the modern day issues we have to deal with...

> Now they can't use Codex to fix the problem

They'd be very dumb to let internal engineers use exactly the same infrastructure as public users, regardless of possible benefits of dogfooding, precisely for this reason. I'm sure they must have thought about it before.

That's however something an AI would not implement without being specifically asked.

"Use the best of the best of the best practices or three cute little kittens will die" only brings you so far.

This is true for all LLMs today, none of them work 100% autonomously, somewhere along the chain one human made at least one decision that lead to what the agent end up working on.

dist-epoch•32m ago
Funnily enough, this happened many times during AWS us-east-1 outages, during the incident internal tools were also down globally because they relied on us-east-1.

Good time to have a backup GLM 5.3 plan.
Bluestein•33m ago
Actually ... they are apparently having issues. Hard to tell: Their "over capacity/peak hours" message is hard to distinguish from other brokenness - but it has been pretty consistent.-
CuriouslyC•26m ago
I'm having no issues, I think in their case it's just load from people falling back from the broad frontier failure.

And now Claude is down - API Error 529 Overloaded

nateb2022•45m ago
Claude went down earlier today
qingcharles•22m ago
Tried to fall back to Grok and got "Model provider is overloaded."

I'm now on Muse Spark. God help us all.

schnebbau•39m ago
WE'RE BACK BABY! Work can now resume.

I think the most concerning thing we discovered here is when the agents go down, work completely stops.

What tasks were you doing?
jdw64•2m ago
As always, I was working on modifying a CRUD program. It's been a while since I read through the documentation carefully and worked on it, so it feels refreshing.
couscouspie•9m ago
Now, Claude is down. I wouldn't be surprised if it was because we people who have both tried offloading their work to it.
