@OpenAI @thsottiaux Hey, any reason why I have access to Astra now but only on Windows? I still don't see it on OSX :(

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

Hey @thsottiaux @OpenAI I still don't have access to Astra but the banked resets stopped coming in. :|

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

I still don't have Astra. The Codex Gods have forsaken me.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

Has Codex been incredibly slow for y'all lately or it's just me? It's horrible in normal mode and barely better in fast mode.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@tinytechfox right after these few dozens cat videos.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

So @thsottiaux evil plan is now clear. First, get us addicted to resets. Then start selling resets. It all makes sense now.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@SKatalystAI What LLM did you use?

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@tinytechfox 6am: Wake up
6:30am: Work :P

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@tinytechfox It’s called ADHD

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@MissJennyDix That’s like 10 layers of bad decisions. What did they think was going to happen?

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@crisisofconsc Will you mail me one? 👉👈? Will pay.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

Hey @sama @thsottiaux @OpenAI Please make Luna available to use as a sub agent please.

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@suchnerve Lady, that's a gaming PC. 🤣😝

GPT 5.6 - Context automatically compacting

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@lydiahallie sadly wasn't accepted. maybe one day!

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

@jumpdesktop y'all having a massive outage today?

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

What do we want! "No 5H limit on Codex"
When do we want it? "We already have it... we just want to keep it that way!"

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

Do not bring back the 5h limit. This was the single best thing y'all ever did. Please!

Hello people of Sol! I've reset usage limits for all ChatGPT Work and Codex users. Together with that, a quick update on GPT-5.6 Sol usage limits.

Over the past few weeks, many of you have told us that Sol was using your Codex limits faster than expected. To be clear, we have not reduced usage on any subscription plans.

We’ve been digging into what was happening and have landed several improvements. As a result, we expect your usage to last around 18% longer during typical use of Sol. Some of you should already see significantly larger improvements from today. Tomorrow, we’ll also restore the five-hour limit that we temporarily paused while investigating.

Here’s what we found:
- GPT-5.6 Sol is much more willing to work for longer, make additional tool calls, and coordinate complex workflows across tools and subagents. That makes it better at solving hard problems, but some tasks were using far more than we intended.
- Sol also works harder at the same reasoning effort than previous models. High on Sol can use more tokens than High did on GPT-5.5.
- Programmatic tool calling, also referred to as code mode, gives Sol much more flexibility to run tool calls in parallel or continue working while waiting. But it also led to more responses per turn, more cached input tokens, and higher usage than expected.
- This was particularly noticeable when Sol was waiting for tool calls to finish or running many web searches. We’ve improved how we handle both cases and are continuing to make code mode more efficient.
- The impact was also very uneven. The median user actually found Sol quite token efficient, while some power users working on harder tasks saw their usage drain much faster. We were very focused on average and median usage before launch and missed some cases where the long tail could use significantly more usage.

Sol is a significant step forward in what Codex can do, but capability and efficiency do not always improve at the same pace, and some issues only become clear once people are using the model at real-world scale. We should have recognized this sooner and been more upfront about it.

You keep pushing the frontier and we’ll keep improving efficiency and sharing updates as we go.

6 minutes just for ChatGPT to return "I’ll give you a clean handoff: the original objective, every source currently present, verified figures and decisions, and the unresolved gaps"

[Pierre-Luc Brunet @Fuitad]

Usign Codex CLI for coding == Incredible
Trying the ChatGPT app to help me wrap the accounting for @MagitekRR, incredibly painful. -_-

Both on Sol Medium. Something in the app is bloated and just doesn't work.
