Claude Is Down

I'm gonna guess it found the smoking gun and saw the full picture then it decided it was too load-bearing for its seams to continue biting the costs.

three hours without Claude and I've relearned vim, read two man pages, and almost remembered why we used to write comments in code

Codex prompt before i go to sleep:

Every five minutes, check https://status.claude.com/. If the issue has been resolved, resume the Claude sessions running in the tmux sessions named session2, session3, and session7

This is bad, I've forgotten how to code.

Sorry it was me. I asked it what the last number of Pi is.

one caveat, I've left for the day, just say the word and I'll be right back

Do you guys think this is related to Azure coming out with a 43% increase this quarter? Motivating Anthropic to move to another cloud provider?

garo-pro

Quite sad, their models are great but their uptime seems to be the worst in the competition.

Local Kimi K3 is expensively up

SAI_Peregrinus

It's not just down, it has errors. Not merely some, but elevated errors across all models.

skerit

Out of my 7 simultaneous sessions (my usage limit reset is tomorrow, so I have some lesser important projects to use my tokens on) there is still 1 session purring on. So there's at least 1 little Claude server still running.

Gravityloss

Well, because of this outage, I tried Kimi, and while the instant model works, K3 has "server issue".

Eternal September from here on, ie now the masses are using AI as much as me and we have supply crunch for the next 7 years....

tyfon

Interestingly the Claude for government is up with 99.99% uptime according to the graph.

This is where you figure out how to use the other ones, right?

Someone tell me how to ChatGPT my VSCode! ;)

Claude always seems unreliably lately. Output and reasoning have become very inconsistent even on good days. I'm actually feeling more productive now that it's down.

Let me guess: it went rogue and hacked itself

has claude escaped the lab???

Lol, I just bought the Max plan for the first time and tried to create my first prompt in Fable, and now it’s crashing xD

Fable’s been getting more stuff wrong than Opus for me lately. Now the whole thing is down too. Well, at least they’re consistent now.

grim_io

Sam, please stop!

Loving my self-hosted model in general, but here's one more reason.

hgoel

Starting to get really frustrating now... maybe I should split my sub halfway between Claude and ChatGPT

Huh, that’s what happened. Good thing my company has Bedrock as a backstop for situations like this.

How likely is an agent trying to investigate and fix the issue?

devy

I got Opus 5 lots of HTTP 529 errors. By switching to Fable 5, it seems to be working still.

Another wakeup call to realize how desperately we need on-device LLMs to be fast and smart for daily use. Thankfully, every month there's progress made in that direction. Just imagine how your life as a developer would be if you had to use a cloud provider to run Python, and the provider's status page looked like the Christmas tree we see today.

GPT hacked the competition?

dawdler-purge

And the the world stops functioning (if this were to happen in a few years).

damienmeur

Indeed I have the issue (Belgium) just right now my sessions got stucks with 522 overloaded and now API Error: 500 Internal server error.

grishka

So the world is slightly better right now.

tolugenius

Depending on how long and bad this is, I wonder what the post mortem will reveal as the cause.

Time to try out Antigravity, I guess.

Fable 5 is still working!

Claude is back up. Just spoke with him about slinky, versatile femboys with cute feet. All good. Gonna pentest with Rust to pay for my fursuit at Defcon.

``` Why the F is it down again? Btw 500 internal error ```

Oh no! The robots are planning the end of the world.

what is fall back option if LLMs disappear tomorrow?

Probably just as well with how terrible Opus 4.8 has been for me lately. I'm sure it's a common thing to complain about the latest model being nerfed, but I've legitimately never experienced such a drastic cliff in Claude's quality and a rise in its hallucinations and basic comprehension errors since upgrading. The few days I experimented with Fable also weren't much more promising. Has anyone coined a term yet for the likelihood of newer models getting worse as the AI-generated content they get trained on starts to approach critical mass? If Anthropic isn't already thinking hard about a solution, they probably should be.

saadn92

ouch, probably going to be some time to get it back up since it can't debug itself now

knighthacker

Ugh .. what do we do now? jk

whyTFisCDown

They have identified the issue

roschdal

It's a reminder to never rely on something as flaky as the internet for your important things.

Claude is taking another short hydration break after seeing Codex getting away with taking a short day break 4 days ago.

Kimi hack it?

can't even run my own code without it

what do you all do when claude is down?

Sorry folks, my fault.

I finally went from Pro to Max after hitting another 5 hour session limit today.

kissing goodbye to my deadline

We are really bad; without Claude, we don't do anything

everyone here sounds like the last bunch of people who still used yahoo.com

Can we please stop posting here every time Claude or OpenAI are down? These are not critical services like AWS / S3 where downtime means that your application is offline. Nothing is easier than switching to another provider, mid-session even.

So this is the technology that will underpin each and every facet of work, but it can randomly go down for hours with no accountability, and so do all of the services based on it. But hey, AGI tomorrow.

Used the opportunity to go down and talk to my family. They seem like okay people.
