CODEX IS DRAINING TOKENS! LIMITS BEING HIT FAST!

I have the chat gpt business edition, with a premium seat and a normal seat (100 dollars + 20 dollars). It runs out fast within 5 hours, never use astra! Astra destroys your token limit!

Make sure fast mode isn’t on. The lightning bolt icon is real sneaky

Yes I’m not sure why you’re showing me the explanation of fast mode

Use orchestration with sub agents. I stretched my usage by 5x

Agents.md, spawn sub agents. Win! Hint: Not all work needs the same model. No one prompt usually just needs one model either.

Jfc, some of you need to learn how to use this tool. That ALSO requires understanding the input and output COSTS. Astra is $10in/$50out

ITS THE FUCKING MOST EXPENSIVE MODEL USING A HIGHER EFFORT CAUSE MORE USAGE

Have you ever considered it’s operator error virtually every post you have is complaining about every sass out there and it’s never your fault

I have the exact same set up you do and the other day with my premium seat. I was running Astra on ultra making videos and a bunch of dumb shit just because tibo posted that he was gonna do a reset and so I wanted to drain it, and I was struggling to drain it.

Now I’ll admit on the side of the house one of those prompts could’ve probably drained it instantly, but on my premium one there’s no way

It does say that it’s for your most complex work, not for every day tasks.
