I’ve been using Gemini 1.5 Flash for quite a while now with very few lag, and maybe a few isolated errors. Starting yesterday, I’ve been getting many 503 Errors, Model is Overloaded immediately after sending prompts. The API now only responds less than 25% of the time.
I have the same issue for about 15 hours. Also I think around less than 40% of requests is successful. It’s returning “503 - service unavailable” sometimes, so I think this is 100% issue on Google side.
Not exactly sure, but probably this is because of new Gemini version, which was dropped recently
You are right man, my whole user base is irritated sie to this. I am also facing same problem for last 15-20 hrs.
Does anyone contacted gemini ai support??
Gemini changelog says the most recent update was the Gemini iPhone app, I don’t think this is directly related to the issue, though it is possible that it is indirectly overloading Gemini’s system.
Try using Gemini’s experimental model “gemini-exp-1114”. I believe that Google allocated too many resources to the experimental model, possibly due to an imminent update.
Please tell me if you have any issues with the experimental model.
