We saw a sharp rise in Downdetector reports for Claude, one of the best AI chatbots you can use, but it seems to have been resolved now. We've seen Claude spike up and down over recent days, but it saw a sharp jump to around 4,000 reports this morning before dropping down to its more regular levels. Clearly, something bigger was wrong than just too many users jumping onto the service as they switched from other AI tools.
For its part, Claude has acknowledged the outage on its status page, citing increased errors, and it did a fairly good job of keeping us abreast with the latest info as it happened.
