If you had trouble using ChatGPT today, you aren't alone. The AI chatbot experienced a partial outage for many users this afternoon, with Down Detector saw reports reaching more than 12,000 reports around the peak point of the issue today.. OpenAI issued a status update shortly after noting that "elevated error rates" were occurring for ChatGPT and Platform users. That problem was marked as resolved at 5:14PM ET.
While the initial outage may be repaired, OpenAI does still have an active status alert up. It's only for the fine-tuning component of its API service. But the end may also be in sight for that final issue, because the current statement from the company is "We have applied the mitigation and are monitoring the recovering.
Another AI chatbot, Anthropic�s Claude, also experienced an outage today. It listed similar issues with "Elevated error rate on API across all Claude models." That status was resolved by 1PM ET.
Update, February 3, 2025, 6:17PM ET: Updated to reflect the change in status and mention Claude outage.

2K owner Take-Two has paused development on Borderlands 4 for the Nintendo Switch 2, the company shared during its Q3 2026 earnings presentation. The Switch 2 port was originally planned to be released on October 3, 2025, a few weeks after the game's September 12 launch on all other platforms, but was indefinitely delayed on September 23.
"We made the difficult decision to pause development on that SKU," Take-Two told Variety. "Our focus continues to be delivering quality post-launch content for players on the ongoing improvements to optimize the game. We�re continuing to collaborate closely with our friends at Nintendo. We have PGA Tour 2K25 coming out and WWE 2K26, and we're incredibly excited about bringing more of our titles to that platform in the future."
When the Borderlands 4 Switch 2 port was originally delayed, the game's developer Gearbox shared that the port needed "additional development and polish time" and that it hoped to "better align this release with the addition of cross saves." In Take-Two's Q2 earnings presentation on November 6, 2025, the Switch 2 port was still listed as having a "TBA" release date. The lack of mention in the company's Q3 presentation and Take-Two's comment to Variety pretty much confirm that if a Switch 2 version happens, it won't be anytime soon. The official Borderlands 4 post-release content roadmap currently lists plans for paid and free story DLC and raid bosses, but nothing related to additional ports of the game.
Grand Theft Auto VI's planned November 19 release date is still on the books, however. Rockstar Games' next blockbuster title was originally supposed to be released in fall 2025, before it was delayed to May 2026 last May. The game was delayed a second and final time � at least for now � in November 2025, to its current November 2026 release date.
There's still room for another delay, but in the earnings statement Take-Two projected confidence, sharing that Rockstar would start marketing the game this summer. The franchise remains a cash cow, so it�s only natural the company would want to get the rollout of Grand Theft Auto VI right. As part of its earnings presentation, Take-Two shared that Grand Theft Auto V, which was originally released all the way back in 2013, has sold 225 million units.

Watch Sir Sadiq Khan get skewered by a GB News panel in a blistering attack, branding the Mayor of London's efforts as "not good enough".Tre Lowe led the charge against the Labour Mayor, saying: "Last time I spoke about London, I said we had more chance of seeing Lord Lucan than seeing bobbies on the beat."And sadly, the actual stat is true. In the last year, we have lost 1,460 officers. That's in one year. That is a fact. Yes, we're told that knife crime is down and that's great."And murders are down and that's great as well. But what isn't great is that us Londoners don't feel safe. "I know a lot of women in London don't feel safe. Certainly when my wife goes out, she doesn't feel safe. I have to come and get her all the time. "The problem is, is if there are no bobbies on the beat, there is no visibility and there's no deterrence. See, because policing isn't all about stats. It's about confidence and the standard Londoners expect from our Mayor are sadly being let down. "This is my city, a city that I absolutely love and this isn't good enough."From London's famous New Year fireworks to the Overground's "woke" rebranding, the panel went on to deliver a scathing assessment of Sir Sadiq's legacy in office.WATCH THE CLIP ABOVE FOR MORE
