OpenAI Have Finally Done It

Open AI have announced a new $100 a month plan. Command AI Which joins their lineup under the pro subscriptions. So, you can go into pro here. You can do 5x or 20x. So, it's really nice now that they've got this middle point between the $200 a month and the $15 a month. This was something that's like, "Well, I don't want to I don't want to pay 200, but I'm chewing through my usage under this plan, which is the one I've got." So, five times more usage than plus and everything you've come to expect, really. So, just increase usage, which I think I just think that $100 is a bit of a sweet spot. Still a lot of money, don't get me wrong, for but these are good models and it suits my budget, 100. I don't need 200. Not even Well, maybe called, but not even really 200, I don't I don't think. So, um they're basically celebrating 3 million weekly Codex users, five times growth in three months, and um 70 That's 70% month-on-month growth. Which they gave The only reason why I'm using it is because they gave double usage. And then the only reason why I'm using it a second month is because I've got a free month given to me um because I attended an event or didn't attend a an event. So, I don't think their usage is as as well celebrated as um uh as they think it is. "Celebrate 3 million weekly Codex users. We are set We are We are resetting usage limits. We will do this every million users up to 10 million. Happy building." So, yeah, but I think this 3 million has got to do with the fact that they've been giving away tokens, which we'll get into. The month my usage is done, I'm out. Like I just like Cored. I do actually like having both, to be fair. I do like having both. But, unless I'm building heavy, which I'm not doing like heavy heavy stuff um all of the time. I'm building my own tools. I'm recording videos, doing video work, and whatever. Like coding is is probably 50% of what I do. So, I'm not heavy heavy heavy. However, when I am heavy, I chew through all of the my usage. I'm I'm I'm using up my Codex, and I'm going back to Claude. Using my Codex, going into uh Yeah, yeah. So, either way, I'm I'm just leveraging free free usage right now. So, I don't necessarily think it's anything else other than free usage or free tokens that's meant they've got such an uptick in users.
