ChainThink reports that on August 25, according to an official announcement, Thibault Sottiaux, head of OpenAI Codex, declared that Plus users will have their 5-hour usage limit reinstated, affecting both ChatGPT Work and Codex.
The $100 and $200 Pro tiers will not be restored and will remain unchanged for at least the next few months. The 5-hour limit was previously temporarily lifted.
Sottiaux explained that restoring the limits is primarily based on two considerations: distributing computational demand to avoid overwhelming loads from a large number of users simultaneously; and preventing Plus users from exhausting their entire weekly quota in one go.
