Microsoft-backed OpenAI's popular chatbot ChatGPT was back up after an outage affected thousands of users, the company said on Friday.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted on X that ChatGPT had been down for 30 minutes, adding a frown emoji and saying, "We are much, much better at reliability than we used to be, but clearly more work in front of us." Outage tracking website Downdetector.com said ChatGPT's services were down for about half an hour, affecting over 19,403 users as of 7:13 pm ET.
