We understand how frustrating it can be to receive an error message when using Magai. The “Could not connect to remote server” error means that OpenAI (ChatGPT) was unable to process your request and send a response back in time. This is usually caused by one of two issues:
1. Large or complex prompt.
Magai leverages OpenAI’s ChatGPT API to generate responses to your prompts. We send your prompt to OpenAI’s servers to process and generate the response. The more information you provide in a single prompt, the longer it will take for ChatGPT to generate a response. If your prompt contains a very long passage of text, multiple questions, or is very complex, the connection may time out before ChatGPT can finish the completed response.
2. Connection was interrupted
There was an interruption in connectivity between Magai and the ChatGPT servers. Magai sends your requests to OpenAI’s servers to be processed by ChatGPT. If there is an interruption in connectivity over the Internet, your request may not reach the servers or the response may not return to you in time.
Tips to avoid this error
To resolve these issues, we recommend the following:
Keep your prompts concise and avoid providing too much context or too many questions at once. It is best to start with a single prompt at a time, evaluate the response, then provide follow up prompts with more details.
Check your Internet connection and try again. Temporary network issues can sometimes interrupt the connection between Magai and ChatGPT. Waiting a few minutes and trying again usually resolves this.
Contact our support team if the issue persists. We can look into any ongoing connectivity or server issues and work to restore service. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
