@cherry_mx_reds OpenAI/Anthropic will not be able to justify their spend or valuation if that is the case, which means innovation will slow down exponentially.

@CtrlAltDwayne Weekly usage has gone WAY down in Codex. It's either a major bug or OpenAI has significantly decreased weekly usage limits.

If your “AI startup” breaks when OpenAI’s API is down, you don’t have a startup. You have a wrapper.
