Paid subscribers to Codex and ChatGPT Work will see their usage allowances refreshed once more on Sept 29 to mark the company's annual developer gathering. An OpenAI developer indicated that these resets are scheduled for Tuesday, though external critics now allege the company is facing a severe compute shortage lasting 12 months. These analysts claim OpenAI has backed out of three Stargate infrastructure projects and is raising capital at high valuations to compensate for a lack of building skill.

The upcoming resets follow a September 25 infrastructure failure that disrupted services and led to an initial round of limit resets on September 26. While OpenAI states the Codex outage is resolved, users report that the Astra 6 and Sol 6 models have become nearly unusable. Subscribers claim they are hitting throughput caps far faster than usual despite the restored services and previous resets.
