Since the evening of September 3, 2026, OpenAI's ChatGPT, xAI's Grok, and Anthropic's Claude chatbots have experienced a massive outage. As RBC writes, this follows from Downdetector data. Complaints about the work of OpenAI began to arrive at 19:24 Kazakhstan time. Half an hour later, the number of complaints reached 35,866, of which 79% were related to problems with ChatGPT. At the same time, complaints began to be received about the work of the xAI Grok chat bot, and a little earlier, local failures in the work of the Claude chat bot, owned by the Anthropic company, were noted around the world. Users note that the problem has not yet been resolved, and the cause of the incident remains unknown. The doctor of psychological sciences said that the habit of “Google” the symptoms of the disease on the Internet only increases anxiety before visiting the doctor. In addition, the state of uncertainty and lack of answers can increase anxiety.
