Not sure if this helps anyone else- but this same behavior was caused by my ISP suddenly enabling a Security Shield - disabling allowed widgets to render. (likely some kind of web socket blocking - not sure). I gave details to OpenAI via Support so they can assess/monitor if others report this behavior.
