Blogger lxfater highlights William's analysis of OpenAI's shifting subscription terms — quota cuts, resets, and perceived model downgrades.
- The Dots product's first-month promotion (roughly Sep 29 to late Oct 2026), which didn't count against quotas, ends next week.
- Official terms said the first month wouldn't count against quotas, with per-tier usage terms to be announced later.
- Prediction: speed-ups and extra bandwidth/capacity may become paid features or consume quota; quotas may be halved next week. Unofficial speculation, not confirmed.
