| Codex has been good for a long time, more expensive but very focused on efficiency. Working with it feels faster and more to the point than Opus models and I trust it more with long-running jobs. Also regular resets vs being at the whim of Anthropic drama all the time is hella nice. |

| Codex is cheaper on average no? I think the models are expensive but the token efficiency of the harness itself solves the problem. |

| ▲ | kristianc 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yes that's what I meant, the per token cost is higher but as you say the efficiency levels it out / works slightly in Codex's favour. |

| Anyone know what the deal is with the resets? |
| |
| ▲ | kristianc 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | They've discovered it's a good marketing strategy. Whenever there's an outage, or a new launch, there's often a reset with it, which helps keep people engaged with OAI / Tibo and reduces churn. They've also introduced banked resets, which are really clever. If you have a $200/month plan and three banked resets, you're not churning because you will overweight giving up those resets (loss aversion theory). | | |
