Recent October incidents, including an eight-hour GPT-6.1 Sol degradation on October 13 affecting Codex API, CLI, VS Code extension, and ChatGPT Work, plus elevated errors on October 6 and a full outage on September 25, have created the near-even odds. Traders see a pattern of capacity errors, quota spikes, and model-specific disruptions tied to scaling large language models, yet note rapid mitigations and current operational status across OpenAI's surfaces. Persistent user reports of "model at capacity" issues and reliance on upstream providers keep uncertainty high, while any new model release or peak-load period could shift sentiment.
