OPENAI'S NEW CODEX APP HITS 1M+ DOWNLOADS IN FIRST WEEK — BUT LIMITS MAY BE COMING TO FREE AND GO USERS

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

OpenAI's standalone Codex application surpassed a million downloads in its first week of availability. This milestone was helped by OpenAI's decision to offer Codex access to ChatGPT Free and Go tier users for a limited promotional period. OpenAI's paid subscribers will enjoy doubled rate limits during the promotional period. Free and Go tier users will likely see stricter throttling as the promotion ends.
