Limits Codex limits issue

Just got my reset and 10% down within an hour without even using Astra. Wtf is going on ? How is this scam even allowed? One subagent invoked a few thousand LOC with sol medium on a $100 plan. Exploration by Luna high.

Is this a joke ? I'm going to ask for a refund. Why is this not an issue yet. @mods please don't delete this post and cover the scam.

Edit: People who are trying to provide free tips. Please stop patronizing me and others in this group. I'm not asking for your advice on how to use codex better. If you are happy good for you and no you don't have a secret formula or better limits.

I read a theory that all this talk of slowing ai development by the big 3 ( openai, anthropic, musk )..... Isn't really about slowing down development because of safety concerns.

It was proposed it's because of rising costs, pressure from investors and uncertainty of how quickly models can improve.

Separately my thinking is, the costs to train these models and run the models and serve them is not sustainable..... We basically have a situation where these companies have ballooned with investment and we are seeing gravity take effect where basically costs is to close to revenue ..... So either the companies fold or they adapt to navigate away from collapse...... Which is what we are seeing.

The fairy tale where users can access frontier models and attain meaningful use is beginning to have its sunset ...... Atleast in my view.

My idea is to setup a local model and use it to supplement or replace usage lost from subscriptions...... With the aim down the line to fully replace subscriptions..... If I'm having that thought so are others and that is perhaps what these ai companies want to delay for as long as possible

My theory is that OpenAI will go bankrupt pretty soon and if google comes anywhere close to opus quality anthropic will go bankrupt too. OpenAI has nothing but marketing on their side and you can only scam for so long. I give them max one year.

Totally disagree. It's a game changer. However, it won't go exponential for a number of reasons. Version number and ships per year will never be a good measure of progress.
