Hi, my GPT-4 API calls have been extremely slow since today. I am experiencing the same issue with ChatGPT (GPT-4). It seems to be linked to my account because when I test the speed using another account, GPT-4 responds normally. I havenāt reached the maximum quota for this month. Could it be related to a quota issue? Are there any other possible reasons?
Thanks for your help
The same here. Timeout every times after 5min. I need to launch 5 times to get 1 and i pay for 5, really amazing ! What is your plan to solve that OPENAI ?
Yup, this is happening to me as well. Also seems to be specifically connected to my account.
They have issues in their servers, I donāt work for OpenAI but it usually happens when they release new features, and plugins probably got everyone excited and got jumping on, which uses GPT4 in the background.
I hope they solve it soon.
Yes, it was happening to me also. So I changed my backend response to SSE (Server send events) so that my users should know that something is going on.
Impressive! May I ask where you obtained this data from?
This is from the monitor in AWS hooked to the Lambda function that makes calls to the GPT-4 API.
So my own personal view of performance from my API calls.
Hereās our API performance for GPT-3.5-turbo over the last month:
The data are somewhat noisy, but clearly an upwards trend. The type of inference hasnāt changed and the size of each request hasnāt changed.
I wonder what the solution is, especially if you sre trying to build a business around it.
Well, itās not clear that there is a solution yet.
Iām hoping the OpenAI folks will pull through.
Iād be OK paying, say, 10x more for a 4x faster product with some kind of latency guarantee.
Iām also looking at other models, both self-hosted, and competing providers, but itās somewhat slim pickings for now ā¦ Especially until Google actually lets people use that PaLM model they āreleasedā twice already.
Clearly, thereās demand for what OpenAI are doing, and the main challenge is meeting up to that demand.
Greetings! I use GPT 4 along with Dall e 3 for creating artistic images. Lately, Iāve noticed that itās awfully slow. I thought it was due to the long chat Iām having creating my next project, but I see Iām not the only one this happens to. Once I enter the prompt I have to log out to log back in and see the response. In addition, at the beginning it offered 2 images among the results, but it has been limited to one per request in recent weeks. Limewire and Bing also support dall e 3, but it is not the same as using GPT 4 support.
Iām out OpenAI! You ask 20$ for a *** slow service. Itās not even a service anymore since almost all queries fail.
March 2024 here ā it has become more slow recently, often freezing and allowing no input at all, or not completing answers and then freezing.
Based on what Iāve seen in other tech firms that quickly gain customers, OpenAI isnāt supporting the current versionās customer issues with enough staff, $ and expertise. Not worth $20 when there are other options in the market.
Probably cause lots of people use it. Thatās why
Iām experiencing the same now. GPT-3.5 is quite fast & stable but GPT-4, if the response less than 30s then ok but more than that nothing happens 
What I find frustrating is the complete lack of communication from their side.
I feel surprised there arenāt more people commenting on this issue. I have seen a significant decrease in response time as well as increase in failures to create responses across both GPT4 and 3.5 in the past two weeks. I use it as a great resource to compliment my academic learning as I can seek clarification, additional detail, or analogies on topics and information. Iām hopeful that it wonāt be long before I am able to verbally converse with AI rather than type. I came here for answers on the current system lag and failures, but there doesnāt appear to be anything on that end identified in this stream. Iāll keep an eye/ear out, I suppose. But yes, it is bothersome to see this issue when we are paying for the most efficient version.
Also having this issue, and have been. ChatGPT 4 responses are taking upwards of 5 minutes to complete, if they even complete without erroring. Probably going to have to drop my subscription for next month if they canāt figure something out. ChatGPT 4 is no longer a worthwhile product if it canāt even manage to give a full response. I reached out to support last week and have gotten no response, to which Iām disappointed, but not surprised by.
When chatGPT is slow due to maintenance or high traffic, I use chatGPT at MiniToolAI . Com
