    First of many outages as they realize how much cash they are burning and can’t stay afloat.

    My company locked down our AI models to tech leads and chief engineers because the average user could save a lot more money by just using Google.

  • This is news? Am I just jaded by Anthropic’s uptime?

    edit: the attempted funny is that Anthropic is down so often it’s hardly news.

    • Yes, news. We regularly see “Twitter is down”, “CloudFlare is down!”, “YouTube was down for 93 seconds! Humanity is in danger!”. Why not chatGPT?

    • Anthropic was also down today.

      And Google had internal issues they didn’t publicly report.

  • “it’s not just you”? It’s not even me. I wonder how many complaints there were - would be a good metric of actual usage

    • Kind of. As long as you understand that people like me exist.

      I ordered a big mac from McDonalds one time. I got a chicken sandwich instead.

      I was sitting inside. I could easily have went back to the counter and said something.

      Instead, I just went with it. Guess I’m having a chicken sandwich today!

      Now, that being said, I also don’t use AI. So, I would have never noticed it being down. But hypothetically, if I tried to use AI, and it didn’t work, I’d just do something else instead.

      So it won’t be the number of complaints = the number of users affected. But it does give you somewhat of a scale.

    It’s definitely not me. I don’t use that shit for anything. I hope it stays down forever.
