    It kills me to run out of claude code usage then my much more mundane usage, queries or web searches, is also cut off. Not doing that has been a big plus of chatgpt/codex in my mind.

      You can tell Claude Code to detect and watch its usage. Have it refuse to work at 90-95%.

      I imagine they’ll keep a buffer of usage for mundane queries and just block deep research tasks/image generation/etc

    This will hurt people who use GPT-6-Pro which isn't easily available in codex and deep research.

    Those were 2 flagship projects that will now make ChatGPT a lot less useful to people who pay.

    We're in trouble. OAI wanted to raise $30B and raise $11B they are cutting costs.

    I just got an email stating that "Chat and Work are coming together in one experience". Then, half way through it's the real headline: "A shared allowance for ChatGPT and Codex". Figured it was coming at some point...

    I got it, too. Not surprising but this was definitely one of the deciding factors keeping me with ChatGPT. Much more willing to change providers now.

    Not surprising: Claude has behaved like this for awhile and it was only a matter of time.

    At the least, it deters people from spinning up Astra Pro requests via the ChatGPT interface willy-nilly.

      Are they likely to be feeling generous and improve usage limits? I think it's easy to see what they're hoping to achieve with this.
