“Anthropic PBC’s artificial intelligence chatbot Claude and related consumer-facing applications went down early Monday, with the startup saying it has been grappling with ‘unprecedented demand’ for its services over the past week. Nearly 2,000 users had reported Claude AI service disruptions at the outage’s peak around 6:40 a.m. New York time, according to service-monitoring website Downdetector. Anthropic said in a statement by WhatsApp that ‘consumer-facing surfaces’ such as claude.ai and the company’s apps were offline. Businesses that have integrated Claude’s AI models into their own systems were unaffected.” (03/02/26)
