That's advanced safety research lead, Shotaro Odate. He holds 253 patents related to safe driving technologies, and is literally obsessed with safety and saving lives. That's a real OG you're looking at. He's also got mad gym discipline.

It's me again. I come bearing great news.
First of all, we have hit 20M active users for Codex some time this week. Second of all, this is cause for celebration and during the day we will credit every Codex and ChatGPT Work user with a BANKED reset that you can use at your own leisure. And we will have some other good news later too!
Now, on usage limits draining faster, while we're not seeing anything abnormal, we do take it incredibly seriously and there is an ongoing investigation. I will share if we do find anything and my below post is really a clarification on a specific pattern that we did see that I wanted to call out.
Go do something amazing today.
Update on rate limits in Codex. We do see that for some users the cache hit rate has been worse this week than the stable state the weeks before. This could explain that usage is draining somewhat faster for those users as hitting the cache consistently is an important component of being efficient.
We are investigating and will have an update tomorrow.
This week’s ChatGPT feature drop - Aug 21:
Another Friday, another roundup of what we shipped this week:
1/ Recent photos: Long press on + menu to quickly attach recents on iOS - this is a fun, power user feature. just beautiful design! also a handy shortcut.
2/ Time: We made it so ChatGPT better understands your current time. It was surprisingly bad at this before, for some interesting, complex reasons. Now it's better!
3/ Long convo loading: Long conversations load and run faster on https://t.co/Hp1l59poJq. Less waiting = better.
4/ 'No internet' errors: We show clearer updates in the UI when you’re waiting for an internet connection. It's so frustrating when ChatGPT times out. Now at least you'll know why, when it's the internet.
thanks to the crew that keeps shipping every week and hope you all enjoy 🚀
If you’re building with GPT-5.6 Sol, we’re reducing API prices by over 20% for the next 3 months as we make it more efficient to run, while the credits you buy will go further in Codex on token-based plans and the usage included in your subscription stays the same.

i genuinely don’t get this obsession of how long you’ve been a fan of someone… means you’re a bigger or better fan. like just let people live and love and enjoy their faves. why’s it always gotta be some sort of competition on here
