I am constantly getting “The server experienced an error while processing your request. Sorry about that! You can retry your request, or contact us through our help center at [help.openai.com](http://help.openai.com) if the error persists.”. It’s been like this for the last few hours. It’s a paid plan, but am not sure where to escalate.

When it gets beyond this, it erroneously terminates its output at random levels of incompletion.

Same here, i don’t like that it’s wasting the amount of messages by failing to provide a decent output and having to repeat over and over to get a full result, I got maybe a good 7 questions out and with repeats now i am at my limit of 25, ridiculous.

</div>

I’m getting the same error message. Also, it sometimes stops generating after just a few words. Sometimes even just one word.  
It’s great when it works, but that is the exception.

Same here. Too slow and then ends up writing the same frustrating message!

I paid for GPT-4 and know there will be pressure on servers but this is becoming super annoying due to its recurrence and length of time it takes!

Exactly the same issue for me exclusively with the GPT-4 model, and it’s been happening since yesterday. What’s worse is that the server error eats into your usage cap. Very frustrating.

Happening to 90% of my requests using ChatGPT-4. Which is very annoying because every time there is an error it eats up one of my 25 requests.

They need to fix this at least for Plus customers.
