The main reasons why ChatGPT might not be working include:
- Internet connectivity problems such as weak or unstable connections causing network errors.
- Server issues like downtime, high traffic, or maintenance leading to temporary outages or slow responses.
- Corrupt browser cache and cookies interfering with ChatGPT's functionality.
- Conflicts caused by browser extensions or scripts.
- VPN use that may block or hide IP addresses affecting access.
- Login problems due to account or permission issues.
- Mobile app loading errors or device-specific issues.
Common fixes to try are: waiting for the service to recover if it is a server- side problem; clearing browser cache and cookies; restarting the browser or device; checking and improving internet connection; disabling VPNs or browser extensions; trying incognito mode or a different browser; and logging out and back in again. Checking OpenAI's status page can confirm if the issue is on the server side. If all else fails, trying the ChatGPT app or alternative AI chatbots might help temporarily.
