Power user burns 170M+ tokens a week on ChatGPT, credits GPT 5.5 for winning him over
ChrisUniverse · x · 2026-09-29
A heavy ChatGPT user reports consuming an average of 170M+ tokens per week, with just 2% of this week's usage left.
He says he wasn't big on OpenAI before GPT 5.5, but the model changed his mind. He also recounts wasting a weekly reset token by using it 2 hours before @thsottiaux hit reset — and is skipping the reset this week since OpenAI's DevDay is tomorrow.
