The ChatGPT Work outage began on Monday, August 31, at approximately 11:04 a.m. ET. Users are reporting increased delays, errors, and problems accessing Work mode.
ChatGPT Plus subscribers appear to be particularly affected, as Work mode is currently unavailable for some users.

OpenAI has acknowledged the incident on its official status page and says it is working on a resolution.
According to OpenAI, users are experiencing an increase in errors across the affected services. The company also confirmed that ChatGPT Plus users are particularly impacted because Work mode is currently unavailable for some accounts.
