OpenAI's 5-Hour Limit Is Back (Users Are Furious)
from Stacked Podcast
OpenAI has restored the five-hour usage cap on ChatGPT and Codex, and some users are burning their whole weekly allowance in a single hour. Nick and Jack break down why the cap is back, whether time-based pricing for AI models is coming, and what the $20 plan says about the "AI underclass." Then: the Financial Times reports Fable 5 accounts for only 11% of Anthropic model spend two months after launch, so what would you even use the API for, and is frontier intelligence still underpriced? Plus Anthropic's shrinking lead over OpenAI, Meta's upcoming Hatch consumer agent and the rumored Watermelon model, the WhatsApp agent play, and why humanoid robots matter.
