A viral thread claims OpenAI has upgraded the ChatGPT free tier in two significant ways: free users now get unlimited text chats, removing the previous usage caps, and the default model has been switched to a smarter one. The post frames it as a game-changer but cites no official source, so details like any time limits and which model is now default remain unconfirmed.
