OpenAI needs to solve Codex usage limits

I’ve been having a blast experimenting with Codex… except for the constant nagging around five hour and weekly rate limits, and having to navigate resets, etc. Granted, I shouldn’t complain since I’m on a free month trial at the Plus level (normally I think ~$20 USD), but it is giving me the impression that to build the tools I want to build and execute what I want to execute creatively, I would need to go up to the $100 or $200 plan (which might be on hold still, I haven’t checked). I understand that compute costs money, obviously. And I do think the quality of results I am (sometimes) getting tend to be very high, and it’s rare that I throw a task at it that it just can’t do. However, it’s kind of common enough that it fucks it up, totally over-engineers something simple it’s done before, and then blows up my usage for the present 5 hr period, and drains down my weekly usage at the same time. Then, when I challenge it about it, it’s just like confirming that yes it did something…
