We will give one banked reset for every day you don't have access to Astra on your paid ChatGPT plan, starting today. Team is moving mountains to give access as fast as we can.
First one will land in ~ 3 hours. There is still time to create your account if you don't have one.

As excited as I am for Astra, OpenAI really knows how to make terrible big model releases
They hyped GPT-6 Astra today just to make us wait several days to get it
GPT-5 had a terrible livestream, and GPT-6 has a terrible release so far, ugh

I honestly don't understand this move, we're used of better
Why releasing the benchmarks now but limiting the model to a limited set of users ?
Why not letting them having access to it since Monday ?
Honestly weird decision
We are starting to release GPT-6 Astra and we are doing it as carefully and quickly as possible. It was very important to us that we bring it to all Plus users and not only Pro, Business and Enterprise.
It will take a few days for the rollout to complete and behind the scenes many novel systems will operate at scale for the first time and we are bringing a lot of compute up.
It is pure magic.

🚨 SCOOP: Astra recently graduated from the dogfood stage, and is now being made available to select OpenAI partners under the name "ultima-alpha"
If feedback over this weekend is positive, the plan is to expand the early access program throughout next week before the wider launch, targeting next Thurs (the 3rd) to the end of the following week
Work also continues on an update to GPT-Image 2, with their launch windows being very similar (possibly even launching simultaneously)

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: OpenAI are preparing to launch Astra imminently, targeting next week.
Their next major model, Astra is a new pretrain - the largest model OpenAI have trained since GPT-4.5. Their most recent dogfood checkpoint of the model, internally known as "mewfour", is the Release Candidate.

Why is new ChatGPT app playing music when I'm using it ? Honestly I don't think it's a bad thing but I think users should have an easy option to disable it (or don't set the default value to true)

These guys are really shameless
Such engagement farming everytime a new model release, we can't know what is real or not anymore
(Spoiler : His tweet isn't about Kimi 3)
Kimi K3 is actually crazy. Someone just remade HALO CE 10v10 multiplayer with one prompt. No engine. No dev team. No months of work.
Kimi K3 is miles better than Anthropics Fable 5 from what I can see. We will be seing AI game making take over after the summer!

Don't fall for these obvious engagment farming, 5.6 Sol is a really good model, people getting their disk wiped / getting their production database wiped (which was happening before the release of 5.6 Sol btw) shouldn't be use AI at all.
GPT 5.6 SOL CANNOT BE TRUSTED.
I woke up this morning and my MRR was down THOUSANDS of dollars.
My customers did not cancel. Code written by GPT 5.6 Sol canceled EVERY active Stripe subscription my business had. In 7 seconds. While I slept.
Fable 5 has never done this to me.
Fable 5 can be trusted with production.
GPT 5.6 cannot.

Introducing... another usage limit reset for all our ChatGPT Work and Codex users. Should land over next 30 minutes. Hope you have an awesome weekend.
Thank you for pushing our systems to the absolute limit, we have never seen traffic increase so quickly. Keep the feedback coming and we'll keep shipping.
Hello beautiful people! We have reset usage limits across Codex and ChatGPT Work. And another one will come later in the day. Rejoice.
Now that I have your attention, a quick update on ChatGPT Work, Codex and all the updates we shared yesterday.
We’ve spent the last 24 hours reading feedback, looking at usage patterns, and talking with many of you. The short version is that there is a *lot* of excitement for GPT 5.6 Sol, ChatGPT Work on mobile & web, but also that we didn't get everything quite right.
- We made it too easy to use the highest-compute settings without making the impact on usage limits sufficiently clear.
- We reorganized the desktop app in one bold move, making familiar things like chats and projects harder to find.
- Our launch framing was focused on ChatGPT Work and to some of our Codex fans it made it feel like Codex was going away over time. Absolutely not our intention, we love Codex and it is here to stay.
- And we introduced regressions for some existing multi-agent workflows, alongside a collection of rough edges in plugins and other parts of the experience.
We’re landing a first set of improvements today. We’re resetting usage twice so people can keep experimenting, changing defaults and the model picker so they don’t push people toward unnecessarily expensive settings, fixing several plugin submission issues, improving how we represent Codex in the product, and cleaning up some of the most immediate desktop problems.
A larger set of improvements will land next week. We’re bringing chats and projects back into the sidebar in a more familiar and customizable way, making usage and reset timing much more visible, clarifying when to use ChatGPT Work and when to use Codex, and addressing the many other smaller pieces of great feedback we've had.
The ambition behind this launch hasn’t changed. We think bringing ChatGPT and Codex together into a workspace where people and agents can collaborate is a very important step forward. But an ambitious direction doesn’t excuse avoidable confusion or regressions in the first version.
Please keep the feedback coming. We’re moving quickly, and you should see the experience already get better with a few updates today; and substantially better again next week.

I've seen a lot of people posting about how bad 5H limit on codex is, yet we have no news from OpenAI ...
Can we get an answer ? It's been a while the 5h limits have been bad (and not only because of the x2 limit coming to an end last month) @thsottiaux
