Never underestimate OpenAI. I went down a rabbit hole on the Codex app's history and the numbers kind of blew my mind. Claude Code Desktop: 328 days old. Codex for macOS: 258. Codex for Windows: 228. Anthropic had a 70-day head start on Mac and 100 on Windows. And a handful of people at OpenAI still caught up in record time, using Codex to help build Codex. It started as a cloud product nobody really cared about. By June, it had over 5 million weekly users. By October, Codex and ChatGPT Work had hit 40M active users combined. We roast it. We complain about the bugs. And most of us can't imagine working without it anymore. That small team deserves way more credit than they get. OpenAI has surprised us before. I wouldn't bet against them doing it again.

GPT-6 Sol and Luna are out. Not only are they a very significant improvement across the board, but also in writing and general "you know when you try it" quality. We are also permanently reducing the API price by 50% making both of them viable for a ton of new usecases and making your usage go further too, even on the subscriptions. And one more thing. We are loading a banked reset into all accounts of our Plus, Pro and Business users. Let's go! openai.com/index/introducing…
We have been focusing on efficiency and intelligence for all. Very proud of the team. Only possible when you have incredible models at the top end of the capability that you can then use to make a big difference in everything else.

GPT-6 Sol and Luna just landed in Astra’s orbit. Both launch today with API prices 50% lower than GPT-5.6. Build with Sol. Scale with Luna. To production and beyond.

OpenAI wiped everyone's Codex usage to 0% yesterday. Then gave nobody a reset. “Kerfuffle” is doing a lot of work here. Your explanation only covers people who used a banked reset. I didn’t. My weekly Codex quota still dropped from nearly half to zero, then returned without an email or explanation. What exactly failed—and who was actually affected?
There was a bit of a kerfuffle this morning with some banked resets not fully applying when used in ChatGPT Work and Codex. Everyone who used one in the affected time window is getting another one and an email to apologize.

We are progressing through the rollout of Astra. Pro and Business subscriptions get it first, some of you should start seeing it across ChatGPT Work and Codex. And then we will proceed with rollout to all of Plus as fast as we can.

Update on rate limits in Codex. We’ve found (a) some inefficiencies when using images in long sessions with multiple compactions (b) high p95+ usage for Computer History (c) a feature that was meant to generate conversation titles that was draining a bit more usage than intended. And we have a tiger team combing through everything and shipping fixes tomorrow. We also found a novel approach to drive efficiency up significantly that is completely unrelated and we will be working on next week. As part of some of the fixes tomorrow, we will also do a full reset of the usage for all paid subscriptions. See you then.
Update on rate limits in Codex. We do see that for some users the cache hit rate has been worse this week than the stable state the weeks before. This could explain that usage is draining somewhat faster for those users as hitting the cache consistently is an important component of being efficient. We are investigating and will have an update tomorrow.

don’t be switching to 1M and then asking for resets next day 😓 use your tokens responsibly… and by that I mean, delegate to Luna as much as you can 🌙 only make the switch for use cases that would benefit from it
GPT-5.6 Sol 1M in Codex. This used to only work for API keys, but we just flipped the switch and works for usage through ChatGPT accounts now too. The same warning applies, there is a reason the current context length is the default, we have tuned it to ~perfection. But you do you!

BREAKING: The Trump administration is reportedly using Pakistani officials to announce fake talks rumors to stabilize the oil market during market opening moments, per Iranian outlets and analysts. Tehran has repeatedly stated it has no plans for negotiations with the U.S., yet Pakistani officials continue to claim talks are in progress or positive — a pattern that has repeated multiple times in recent weeks.

The AI bubble is far worse than I thought... Nvidia is reportedly on the hook for $5 T worth of circular financing loans for its customers Keep in mind, at the height of this bubble $NVDA's fiscal 2026 earnings is only $120 B 2000 bubble on steroids The math ain't mathing....
So... AI hyperscalers are totally broke and their free-cash-flow just turned negative. What could possibly go wrong with that $3 trillion worth of off-book, hidden SPV debt Nvidia... HT @TruthTaz

Old news actually from a bunch of days ago, but crossed that 15M. Enjoy a nice reset everyone. Landing in the next hour or so, go /fast.
I previously promised a reset for every 1M in additional active users for Codex, until 10M. We blew past that and have been silent since 10M. Little surprise for you tomorrow.

Replying to @xyzfennell @liammm
Open any app, press ⌘+⌘, and ask Codex to handle whatever’s on your screen with computer use. Try it once and tell me you’re going back to the CLI! 😉

so that's why tibo stopped giving us banked resets it all makes sense now 🙂
OpenAI appears to be working on a feature that would let you purchase a rate limit reset for Codex Source: public checkout pricing config & ChatGPT web app assets
