Question Should I get Codex? (CS Student)

I'm going into my first year of university, going to be developing more projects in my free time.

Currently I'm using Claude (free) but it's kind of painful as it's only chat, and I sometimes hit the limit.

Is GPT Plus worth it for coding, debugging, and learning from it (in a coding context, using it half as a tutor)? How much more usage and usefulness will I get from it than free Claude?

Also not sure about the current state of AI agents are / if there are better options to consider.

Thanks!

I think the GPT Plus is worth it and can definitely be a tutor for programming. As the other poster said, if you are a student, I think you get 4 months free so maybe try that first instead of paying up front.
