OpenAI Tweaks Codex and ChatGPT Work Limits
GabGarrett · x · 2026-07-13
Over the past 48 hours, OpenAI has pushed several updates to Codex and ChatGPT Work:
- Temporarily lifted the 5-hour usage limits for all Plus, Business, and Pro plans.
- Rolling out a change to make GPT-5.6 Sol more efficient and consume fewer credits, with exact savings to be quantified and announced later.
- Officially noted that active users have reached 6 million, and a usage reset will be completed within the hour.
The original post throws in a joke comparing this to Anthropic users, but the core message is OpenAI's latest adjustments to usage quotas and efficiency.
