OpenAI Codex lead vows daily improvements or usage-credit resets for 28 days
量子位 · wechat · 2026-10-05
Tibo, who leads OpenAI Codex, has pledged that for the next 28 days the team will deliver either a clearly useful improvement for most Codex users or a full usage-credit reset each day. After soliciting community feedback, he locked in four directions: simplifying the product, boosting efficiency, breakthrough features, and new models.
User complaints go beyond limited credits: a blurry DevDay with 20+ updates, unpredictable resets that disrupt work planning, shrinking plans, and mid-task model disconnects — "unlimited bullets that keep jamming." The key to Tibo's promise is the "clearly useful" bar, not the "every day" cadence. The piece also notes a public spat with GrokBot's Lauren Tan and speculation about pressure from Claude Opus 5.5.
