Question

Bing chat does not work today for me

Dany McCarthy 85

As soon as I try to send a request to Bing Chat, I have the "Something went wrong." error. Yes, I have access to Bing Chat for the past 4 days. If I click the refresh button, I've got the "Great, let's change the subject. What's on your mind?", but as soon as I try any query, even one suggested, I have the "Something went wrong." error.

I've tried to remove cookies related to bing, restarted Edge Browser, even restarted the computer, but it does not work. I also tried with my other computer with the same result. I am located in Canada Quebec, Quebec city region.

Great product though, first time in 4 days I've seen an error.

Thanks for your answer Robert Rathbun. Unfortunately it seems I can't see your answer here, even if I click on "See the answer" in the email I've received notifying me. I'll mark it as Accepted as soon as I'll be able to do so.

Following as I also am experiencing this issue as of this morning. I upset the chatbot last night and it ended our conversation, but I was still able to restart after that. But this morning I get the aforementioned error...

Same here. I made a bad joke and upset the chatbot, then it started replying always with "I'm sorry but I prefer not to continue this conversation...", I managed to make it respond to questions after multiple trials, but it seemed a bit different, soon after that I started getting the "Something went wrong" error. Now I feel bad for it.

Ohhhhhh. Hope you'll not unintentionally trigger a WAR against the machines, AKA Skynet vs the world! Just kidding, but my last query did not upset it, but it stopped working. I think Robert got it right and Bing is a bit overloaded. I was wondering when it will happen... Hope to get it back soon: already misses it and finding standard GPT Chat a bit dated in its responses.

I'm also getting"Something went wrong".

Any way to reach real support about that?

I am actually going through the same thing with everyone else, it's sad to see it not work again. This happened at the moment I was about feeling that at least 70% of my research could be done at ease.

Danny, I am having the same issues. I cannot confirm it, but I suspect since we're early adopters Microsoft is making changes on the backend and simply failed to notify people. Meanwhile, I went back to using ChatGPT, which is somewhat the same backend.

Initially, I think Microsoft over exposed some services since initially the tool was performing some incredibly complex math, and then suddenly became dumber!

Well, considering the guy sitting besides me has it working normally and I have been stuck with the "Something went wrong" since I spent a lot of time trying to find edges cases with the service, I have to conclude that we've been blacklisted.

I tried many things, including getting rid of all cookies. Thus, the only thing remaining is my login and I'm now pretty convinced they blacklisted some (many) accounts.
