ChatGPT has become fashionable and has many uses that we can give to this AI capable of talking to us or writing what we ask. But it is precisely its multiple uses that make the tool not always work as it should. We explain some tips and tricks if you don’t know what to do when ChatGPT doesn’t work, is collapsed or doesn’t respond.
If you’ve tried using the AI tool but get a warning that there are too many requests or it’s crashed, we have several options. The first and most basic is that you wait and enter at another time , but it is not always an option if we need something or want to use it as soon as possible.
Check if it’s down
The first thing we must check is if ChatGPT does not work only for us or if it is down. We can take a look at Twitter to see if it is failing all users or we can resort to specialized websites that detect crashes or global problems on certain pages.
If it works for other users, but not for you, you can try a series of tips and tricks that will allow us to enter and start using artificial intelligence.
Refresh the browser
If you don’t want to wait, please update the browser. It is the first thing we always do and it may seem like an unhelpful solution, but it usually works on many occasions. In addition, it has been proven that it is usually one of the most useful solutions when ChatGPT does not work and is saturated and you want to try to use it.
It may not help at all, but it will take us a few seconds to do it and it will hardly cost us any effort to give this tip or trick a try. Please update the browser first. If it doesn’t work, keep reading other tricks or options.
Delete cookies
Another of the tips that we can follow is to clean the browser’s cookies. It is usually something that helps us make websites work when we have access problems, for example. There is nothing wrong with deleting cookies from your computer and it will not cause any problem for your data nor will any type of fundamental file you have be deleted, only temporary files.
Deleting cookies or cleaning them depends on the browser, but we will generally find this option without any problem from the settings. In Chrome we will simply have to touch the three points on the right side of the browser, we will open the settings and here we go to “privacy and security” where we will find the section that allows us to delete browsing data.
Sign out and start again
To use ChatGPT we have to login to OpenAI or we can’t. If we want to try to make it work and it’s crashed, we can log out and log back in. It seems silly but it will generate a new request and we may be given access at that point if the above didn’t work and you want to use it.
This is simple and we simply have to go to the section to log out and log in again with your username and password to access ChatGPT again. Test to see if this works and you can use it normally.
