OpenAI says it's doubling Pro usage limits and bringing Work features to Chat

According to BleepingComputer, "Your use of ChatGPT and Codex will draw from the same allowance," OpenAI noted in the email[1] to Pro subscribers. The outlet adds that OpenAI says Unlimited Instant is included in the subscription and won't count towards the shared usage limit.[1]BleepingComputer also reports that OpenAI has already doubled Work and Codex allowances for its Pro 100, Pro 200, and Pro 500 subscriptions, effective October 29.[1] Daily.dev reports that Codex will remain a separate experience in the ChatGPT desktop app.[2]According to Android Authority, Thibault Sottiaux posted on X: "We are doubling all usage limits for all Pro 100/200/500 tiers and Business Premium, effective today."[3] Android Authority says the move comes after the company received backlash from a previous plan to reduce usage limits for Pro 200 subscribers.[3]BigGo Finance reports that OpenAI's September 29 email told some Pro 200 users their Codex and Work quotas[4] would drop from 20 times ChatGPT Plus to 10 times[4], with no change to the price.CellCog, citing OpenAI's help pages, reports that Plus usage, Ultrafast access and the weekly GPT-6 Pro Chat limits on Pro 100 and Pro 500 stay the same.[5]gHacks notes that OpenAI does not publish exact numerical usage limits for each tier, so subscribers cannot verify the doubling against a published figure.[6]
