I can’t say I’ve used it extensively enough to draw a conclusion, but it did seem similar to GPT 5.4 in Codex.

When I threw it at a difficult issue in an iOS app, it like GPT came up with wrongly guessed explanations. It only found the issue after I had it instrument the app and add extensive logs. Usually GPT 5.4 is the same.

Only that with GPT 5.4 it’s at least included in my subscription, while sending 3-4 messages to Opus 4.7 for this blew through my $20 plan limits and consumed $10 of extra usage on top. At that point I can’t help but bring up how much more expensive it is.

Rest assured OpenAI won’t want to leave that kind of money on the table…

		There’s also still Google with their TPUs, xAI has some large models in the works, not to mention China. With that much competition and ongoing improvements, I don’t have such a pessimistic view on future usage limits and cost.
