Date
June 14, 2025

We know how much you love to play AI Dungeon, and we’re very sorry about the various slowdowns and outages over the past week or so. We definitely share your frustration when things aren't working. We have more information to share with you about the outages as well as current and planned interventions.

My goal with today's post is:

  • Share how we plan to compensate subscribers for the downtime
  • Give you information about the past week's issues
  • Detail our plans to address those issues going forward.
  • Discuss the state of AI Dungeon and the impact of scale on our platform
