Trader consensus favors no ChatGPT outage by March 20 at 77.5% implied probability, driven primarily by OpenAI's robust infrastructure on Microsoft Azure, which has maintained high uptime amid surging demand for GPT-4o models. Recent status.openai.com reports show all systems green following minor degradations resolved within hours earlier this month, contrasting with infrequent major disruptions like the February 2024 incident. No credible leaks or announcements signal capacity strains, and historical patterns indicate outages are rare outside peak scaling events. Key watchpoints include traffic spikes from new features or viral usage, though OpenAI's proactive monitoring tempers risks, justifying the market's optimism.
