Summary
Three flagship AI chatbots from OpenAI, Anthropic and SpaceXAI went down Thursday in a rare overlapping outage, with only some models affected at each provider.
OpenAI said a routing error starting at 7:43 a.m. PT made ChatGPT and Codex unavailable for some users until a fix was implemented at 8:17 a.m. PT.
SpaceXAI separately apologized for problems tied to an outage at its Memphis compute center and said impacted compute partners were affected, offering a possible explanation for Grok and parts of Claude.
Cloudflare denied any significant disruption and Microsoft Azure showed no apparent issues, leaving no confirmed common trigger for all three outages.
