BlockBeats News, July 11th, OpenAI Codex core member Tibo posted on the X platform, stating that it had been too easy for users to enable high compute mode without fully explaining its impact on usage limits; a major overhaul of the desktop application made common features such as chat and projects difficult to find; the release was overhyped with a focus on ChatGPT Work, leading some Codex users to mistakenly believe that Codex would be phased out in the future. Furthermore, the new version caused issues with some multi-agent workflows, plugin functionalities, and other aspects of the user experience.

In response to these issues, OpenAI has introduced the first set of improvements, including adjusting default settings and model selectors to prevent user misuse of high-cost configurations; fixing multiple plugin submission issues; optimizing how Codex is presented in the product, and addressing some desktop user experience issues.

Additionally, over the past 24 hours, OpenAI has been collecting user feedback, analyzing usage patterns, and engaging with users. Despite the market's strong interest in GPT 5.6 Sol and ChatGPT Work web and mobile versions, OpenAI has acknowledged several issues with this update.

As of now, two recharges of Codex and ChatGPT Work usage limits have been completed, with a larger-scale update scheduled to go live next week. During this update, chat and project functionalities will return to the sidebar in a more familiar, customizable form. The platform will also enhance the visibility of usage limits and reset times, further clarifying the specific use cases for ChatGPT Work and Codex.
