I did this. Fuck what anyone else says, just put the pedal to the metal and BUILD. Push spaghetti code. Nobody cares about OOPs. Doesn’t matter what anyone thinks. Just keep on doing. Document in public. Don’t listen to the haters. Release more than you refactor. Just keep pushing. Nobody cares, nobody notices, that’s the key, just fucking PUSH. That’s the way out, that’s what works, 100% times.

We’ve updated the Model Spec, our public description of how we want our models to behave. This revision makes clearer what we want from models as they take on more autonomous work in the world and become capable of helping us in new ways. 🧵 openai.com/index/updated-mod…

ha, you can plan any fact in a negative light. In my view it’s a pretty big win for everyone across the Pro plans.
To clarify: If you’re already on Pro 200, you’re keeping your current Work + Codex limits. No cuts.

2x usage limits for Pro 100/200/500 + Business Premium, starting today! Pro 200 limits won’t be reduced. dots keep their extended limits too, with usage counted separately. more room to build 🫡

Day 25/ We are doubling all usage limits for all Pro 100/200/500 tiers and Business Premium, effective today. We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200, so your Work and Codex usage will stay the same. We’re also going to continue offering extended limits for dots for now, and usage of your dot will still continue to be separate from your default usage. And we'll of course also keep shipping better models and other efficiency improvements that increase your effective usage over time.

Big FYI: DO NOT change models unless you really know what you’re doing, the prompts for these models are carefully calibrated for the defaults.
Codex's Dreaming V3 memory system uses GPT-5.6 Luna and Terra by default. Upgrade by copying the following into config.toml: extract_model = "gpt-6-luna" consolidation_model = "gpt-6.1-terra" Both models are more intelligent AND cheaper than their predecessors. It's better than a free lunch. It's like getting paid to eat lunch.
