TL;DR
- OpenAI has announced it is doubling usage limits for ChatGPT Pro $100, $200, and $500 plans and Business Premium.
- This announcement comes after the company received backlash from a previous plan to reduce usage limits for Pro 200 subscribers.
- The company also says it will continue offering extended limits for dots.
Your voice matters; don’t let anyone convince you otherwise. A perfect example of this is a recent dispute between OpenAI and its users over usage limits. Due to backlash, the company is now reversing course. It also provided some news on dots limits.
Thibault Sottiaux, a software engineer and product executive at OpenAI, announced on X that OpenAI will double usage limits for all ChatGPT Pro $100, $200, and $500 plans and Business Premium. This primarily affects ChatGPT Work and Codex, which share usage limits under eligible subscriptions. According to Sottiaux, the change is scheduled to go into effect immediately.
Day 25/
We are doubling all usage limits for all Pro 100/200/500 tiers and Business Premium, effective today.
We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200, so your Work and Codex usage will stay the same. We’re also going to continue offering extended limits for dots for now, and usage of your dot will still continue to be separate from your default usage.
And we’ll of course also keep shipping better models and other efficiency improvements that increase your effective usage over time.
Previously, OpenAI had planned to reduce usage limits for the Pro 200 tier, without lowering the price. This usage reduction was expected to start on October 29. But it appears that a healthy amount of feedback convinced the company to change its mind. “We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200, so your Work and Codex usage will stay the same.” OpenAI has not revealed the exact numerical allowances for each tier.
Tacked onto this announcement, Sottiaux also offered an update for dots, personal AI agents that run in the background. OpenAI plans to continue offering extended limits for dots, at least for now. Sottiaux adds that “usage of your dot will still continue to be separate from your default usage.”
