Overview

ChatGPT Meltdown Bug refers to a reported problem with the OpenAI large language model artificial intelligence ChatGPT that became apparent on February 20th, 2024, when the model started outputting gibberish, foreign languages and strange words when prompted by users with normal queries. The event was widely discussed online across multiple sites and platforms as users shared their reactions and examples from ChatGPT's strange responses.

Background

On February 20th, 2024, at around 3:40 p.m. PST, users reported "unexpected responses" from OpenAI's LLM chatbot, ChatGPT. According to the company's own reporting, the issues were resolved within four and a half hours at 8:14 p.m. PST.[1]

While it is a fact that artificial intelligence models and generators can "hallucinate," producing seemingly random, false or incoherent outputs, the strangeness of ChatGPT's problem intrigued many online as word of the issue spread that day. While the bug appeared to have been solved within a few hours, OpenAI offered no official explanation of what went wrong and how.[2]

Screenshots of responses circulated widely online, including the one (seen below, left) shared on February 21st, 2024, by X / Twitter user @christapeterso, which received over 500 likes in 15 hours,[8] and another (seen below, right) posted on Reddit by a user who had asked the AI to give a biography of the Jackson family.[9]
