Microsoft's AI tool, Copilot, is experiencing issues, with over 700 reports of problems on Friday morning, according to Downdetector.
The Downdetector status page shows recent user-reported problems with Microsoft Copilot, mostly affecting the app at 67% and, to a lesser extent, the website, with only 1% users facing login issues.
According to Statusgator, over 200 users reported issues like slow performance, server not responding, and blank/no responses in the last 24 hours.
Microsoft has not issued a detailed technical explanation about the partial outage or the slow responses from the AI tool.
However, according to Microsoft Learn, slow performance and session interruptions with Copilot can happen due to several reasons, such as browser settings, network issues, or system resource limitations.
Users experiencing Copilot issues can try a few troubleshooting techniques that might temporarily boost performance or restore access, including refreshing or restarting the app, clearing browser cache and cookies, switching browsers or devices, closing unused tabs or apps, and waiting for server stabilization.
