Yes I am 24/7 connected to 1gbs fiber and other apps and websites work as expected. Restarting it or turning it off does not resolve the issue as soon as I use AI again in a new pages blank document ? Ideas ? Solutions?

Is Apple Intelligence enabled in System Settings and did you install ChatGPT?
Some features and capabilities of Apple Intelligence may not be available in some languages or regions.
Some ChatGPT features may require a ChatGPT account and paid subscription to access certain features.
There may have been transient Internet conditions, including remote server outages, that may have caused an interruption in your ChatGPT request.

Your solution may be in any or all of items 2 - 4. An alternative may be rebooting your Mac and trying the Pages writing tools again.
