ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok Experience Widespread Service Outage Affecting Spain

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General3 September 2026 at 17:16

Artificial intelligence services ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok became unavailable simultaneously on Thursday afternoon. The outage affected all three AI chatbots at the same time, generating a widespread disruption that surprised users.

The causes of this simultaneous failure are still unknown. None of the companies responsible for the services — OpenAI (ChatGPT), Anthropic (Claude), and xAI (Grok) — have revealed what caused the interruption of their systems so far.

The failure also affects Spain, where many users reported being unable to access these AI platforms during the afternoon. The problem appears to have international impact, although the article focuses particularly on the situation in Spanish territory.

Not style: see what the R$1,200 glasses that 'wake up' Arrascaeta before a Flamengo match are for

Arrascaeta, a player for Flamengo, arrived at the Maracanã wearing special phototherapy glasses called Circádia, valued at R$1,200, which emit green light to increase alertness and help with concentration before night games. The device, developed by the company AVA, aims to temporarily shift the body's natural biological response that signals it's time to rest, allowing the athlete to remain awake during the match without the need for coffee or energy drinks. The use of this technology is especially useful in night games, when the body begins to prepare for sleep.
