OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude have suddenly gone down in India and worldwide. Users connected to these services are unable to log in or ask questions, affecting their work. Hundreds of people are expressing their frustration and anger on social media.

Users reported that they are unable to load old chats as well. Many believe that the downtime of Claude increased traffic on ChatGPT, which caused it to crash too. Some users responded humorously on social media, saying the entire tech industry is taking an unscheduled coffee break.

Arpit Soni from Bhopal, who writes about new gadgets and technology, said this sudden downtime has also affected his work. According to Arpit, he has been in the media industry for the past nine years and has worked as a senior content producer for four years.

By 8:06 PM, a total of 428 reports had been registered on Downdetector. Several users have also complained about issues with Google Gemini. This disruption has caused a stir worldwide and has disrupted users' daily routines.
