A screenshot shows OpenAI services experiencing elevated error rates, with APIs, ChatGPT, and Codex all affected. The error shown in the image is a 503 Service Unavailable response.
The post frames the outage as a reminder that AI downtime can be as disruptive to productivity as internet outages. The image itself adds to the joke: a chat bubble asks “Are you still up?” while the reply is a service-unavailable error with a retry button.
