It's an alert. Whenever the latency of OpenAI's API goes above a certain value, it's no longer efficient to test. When it comes back down it is, so I need to know when it breaks that threshold so I can remotely toggle my GPT agents.

I truly believe OpenAI team may become stronger than ever in the next few months. The greatest risk was expansion and being spread thin, a shifting culture. Can’t imagine anything that would bring us closer together, nothing that would ignite more passion to continue the mission.
