OpenAI has announced a temporary suspension of new user registrations for its paid ChatGPT Plus subscription due to a surge in demand for AI services that the servers can't handle.
Here's What We Know
According to the head of the company, Sam Altman, the number of people wanting to subscribe to ChatGPT Plus surged after the announcement of the new tools. This led to the current capacity of the OpenAI infrastructure being exceeded.
The company wants to make sure all subscribers have a consistent experience using the service. The company is likely addressing the issue of providing enough computing power.
OpenAI did not specify when it will resume accepting applications for ChatGPT Plus. Users are advised to sign up for in-app notifications so they don't miss the opening of subscriptions.
