Why so slow???

It’s suddenly moving at 1/4 speed of usual and now is very difficult to work with. The status page shows no problems though.

Same issue here, did you manage to find any info as to why this is happening?

Same issue… It’s getting worse and worse, I don’t feel like I need to pay extra, cause I don’t feel like it’s worse the time to compile it’s answer…

i have the same problem… I think I will stop paying for the account because it doesn’t make sense now with this speed. I think that is something with new options like browsing and plugins

I have the same issue since MONTHS. I am a paying PRO customer and the website response time is just HORRIBLE (reminding me of modem connection times in the first internet times!) I need to ask a question from time to time (for coding help), but when I visit chat dot openai dot com the website many times does not even respond, and when I write something into the chat it does not RECOGNIZE MY LETTER TYPING. Horrible UX! The WORST I have experienced in 10 years. I get it that you are popular with 170m users and counting, but charging money for this UX is just unbelievable! FIX IT or I leave!

This “performance” makes me HATE chatGPT, not like it!

same here. I just forked out my $20 for a monthly in hopes of it being faster. MAJOR DISSAPOINTMENT!!! Canceling my subscription until this is fixed.

Same here, not the Internet. Can’t be doing this to paying customers. If you are struggling so much for money, just make the price $40 a month. People will still pay. I however do not want to hear about your problems and expect a fast service, this is unacceptable.

Same! It’s been super slow going on for two weeks now

Same for me too, but only certain times of the day, weirdly.

Watching it generate a response, line by line, only to inevitably just ‘hang’ (meaning it just stops randomly and doesn’t continue) is painful.

I hope OpenAI improves it.

For now, at least for me, starting a new chat and asking it again puts it back to normal speed. But it will inevitably slow down again over time.
