Blogger scaling01 tweeted that while unsure if his posts directly influenced Elon Musk's decision, the timing and Musk's comment make it seem plausible. He had previously commented on Codex's slowness and led a 'ChatGPT Plus rebellion,' which might have impacted GPT-5 usage limits. He believes assuming his actions had consequences, even if delusional, feels good. The quoted reply also shows him shouting out to Elon.
