It's interest to see this quote: `for the bottom 10% of user turns sorted by model-generated tokens (including hidden reasoning and final output), GPT‑5-Codex uses 93.7% fewer tokens than GPT‑5` It sounds like it can make simple tasks much more correct. It's impressive to me. Today coding agent tends to pretend they're working hard by generating lots of unnecessary code. Hope it's true

This is my issue with gpt-5. If you use the low or medium reasoning it’s garbage. If you use high, it’ll think for up to five minutes on something dead simple.

I just want the codex models in the API, I won’t touch them until then.

And before someone says it, I do happen to have my own codex like environment complete with development containers, browser, github integration, etc.

And I'm happy to pay a mint for access to the best models.

Codex CLI IDE just works, very impressed with the quality. If you tried it a while back and didn’t like it, try it again via the vscode extension generous usage included with plus.

Ditched my Claude code max sub for the ChatGPT pro $200 plan. So much faster, and not hit any limits yet.

They've said it's coming:

Im using Cursor with the $20 plan and hit rate limits after 15 days (so im paying extra the rest of the month). What do you recommend I do?

I saw that, but soon doesn’t inspire confidence, and is easy to overlook if they don’t. They didn’t with the previous Codex model.

Wait, what? They now allow claude code like subscription instead of the API too?

Yes for at least a month. Download the vscode extension and sign in with ChatGPT

You could get two plus accounts? Or maybe a business account with two seats?

The $200 pro feels good value personally.
