Very good move. In my experience, for system programming at least, GPT 5.4 xhigh is vastly superior to Claude Opus 4.6 max effort. I ran many brutal tests, including reconstructing for QEMU the SCSI controller (not longer accessible) of a SVSY UNIX of the early 90s used in a 386. Side by side, always re-mirroring the source trees each time one did a breakthrough in the implementation. Well, GPT 5.4 single handed did…

Really great to see this whole thread after so many questioning looks from people on why I use codex instead of Claude which generally doesn't work for me.

I never thought it was about particular usefulness for low level vs high level but it tracks with my general low level work.

Did you modify the Plus plans usage recently or as part of this introduction? Given that Pro plans usage are multiples of it (5x/20x) and given reports of less Plus usage, clarification would be appreciated? Transparency on this sort of thing is the best way to address negative company sentiment.

I'm honestly not sure, as I don't work on it. My understanding from afar is: - There was a 2x promotion in March that ended on April 2, so limits have felt tighter since then - We sometimes reset rate limits after bugs or milestones or because Tibo feels generous, which can make some days feel different than others (they are typically announced here: https://x.com/thsottiaux ) - Recently Plus was tweaked to have a sm…

Following up - I was wrong about 10x/40x. Here's how it actually works:

$20 = 1x

$100 = 5X (but temporarily 10x for just Codex til May 31st)

$200 = 20x

We'll send out new tweets and clarify our pricing page.
