Day 27 of OpenAI's 28-day countdown (Saturday, October 31, Pacific Time). Without announcing "Day 27/", Tibo wrote only "Banked 1/2" six hours and 16 minutes before the day ended. As teased the previous day, this can be read as the first of the remaining two resets, provided in the form of a "banked" credit that users can choose when to use.
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 26 (Friday, October 30, PDT). Just 1 hour and 17 minutes before the day ended, Tibo posted "Day 26/" stating that users can now switch between multiple accounts on the mobile app, and further hinted that the remaining 2 days will be resets—and they are "banked."
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 25 (Thursday, October 29, PDT). Tibo announced on "Day 25/" that usage limits for all three Pro plans and Business Premium would double starting today, and he also mentioned canceling the planned reduction for Pro 200. This was the day before October 30, when the September announcement said Pro 200 amounts would decrease.
OpenAI's Day 24 of 28 (Wednesday, October 28, Pacific Time). Tibo introduced a feature to send text messages to your dot in "Day 24/". This follows his tease of "good news tomorrow" from the previous night, and it is a preview for Pro users in the US.
OpenAI's 28-day saga, Day 23 (Tuesday, October 27, Pacific Time). Tibo quoted ChatGPT's iCloud Mail and Calendar plugin announcement at 7:42 PM PDT, writing "Day 23/" followed by "Just kidding, today is a reset." Forty-five seconds later, he added a deadline of "midnight PST." This is 4 hours and 17 minutes before the end of his personal day 23. We will confirm the arrival in the next installment.
OpenAI's 28-day count, Day 22 (Monday, October 26, Pacific Time). OpenAI announced GPT-6.1 Terra at 11:06 AM PDT, and Tibo posted "Day 22/ Terra is back!" 1 hour and 18 minutes later. According to him, it's the first model with significantly improved writing, personality, and nuanced understanding of requests, offering twice the usage of 6.1 Sol for both API and subscriptions. While the news RSS subtitle says "for everyone," the changelog specifies it's for Work and Codex Plus, Pro, Business, En
Day 21 of OpenAI's 28 days (Sunday, October 25, PDT). Tibo's "Day 21/" was posted at 10:21 PM PDT, 1 hour and 38 minutes before the end of his 21st day. The content was, "Wonder what happens the remaining seven days. But today is a reset." While he hasn't explicitly stated it was delivered, third-party aggregators recorded arrivals at 11:08 PM and 11:49 PM PDT. This is the 4th reset in the 5 days since Day 17. Cumulative total: 12 releases, 11 resets, 0 unkept promises, 0 unconfirmed.
OpenAI's 28-day journey, Day 20 (Saturday, October 24, PDT). Tibo's "Day 20/" appeared at 20:39 PDT with just three words: "Rest and reset." He added a deadline of "By midnight PST" 33 seconds later, and at 23:06, he posted "It is all propagated" with an image saying "ONE HOUR LATER...". This is the first time he has explicitly confirmed arrival via a separate post since "Done" on Day 13. Recent stats: 12 releases, 10 resets, 0 missed days, 0 unconfirmed.
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 19 (October 23, Pacific Time). Tibo's "Day 19/" was released at 4:12 PM PDT. According to him, it contains three "small updates": faster call connections for dots, no more cache invalidation when changing inference settings mid-conversation in Codex and Work, and a Codex CLI update (0.164.0, changelog dated October 23). Day 18, which was previously deferred, was addressed by Tibo at 9:46 PM as "Day 18/", ending with "a reset." The deadline remains "by 10 AM (PST) t
OpenAI's 28-day count, Day 18 (October 22 UTC). Tibo's "Day 17/" arrived at 23:55:22 on October 21 PDT, just 4 minutes and 38 seconds before his own calendar closed. The content says "Today is reset day" and "By 10 AM tomorrow (PST)." Third-party counts are split on whether it arrived at 17:10 UTC on October 22 or not yet, and Tibo has not confirmed receipt. The Day 18 announcement has not yet appeared, and October 22 PDT has not closed. Cumulative stats: 11 days released, 8 days reset, 0 days u
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 17 (October 21 UTC). First, a correction: Day 14 was not left unnamed as previously stated, as Tibo posted "Day 14/" on October 18 at 18:18 PDT. It covered editing past messages in the desktop app. Day 16 arrived around the same time in the evening, announcing that Codex and Work caches will be kept forever. Day 17 brought only the riddle "Dot, Dotter, Dottest," and October 21 PDT has not yet closed. Current totals: 11 releases, 7 resets, 0 broken promises, and 1 u
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 16 (October 20 UTC). In the morning of PDT, Tibo admitted that usage limits for about 40,000 accounts did not match the plans they had selected, announcing corrections and additional credits while apologizing. It is neither a universal reset nor a new feature. OpenAI announced the acquisition of Orchestra Bio, but this is not an improvement for users. "Day 16/" has not appeared as October 20 PDT has not yet closed. The tally so far: 9 days of releases, 7 days of re
OpenAI Day 15 (October 19 UTC). OpenAI Developers streamed "COOKED: Ep. 1," where they reviewed DevDay while cooking ramen, prompting Tibo to declare "Day 15/ We're cooked." The actual update arrived 10 hours and 48 minutes later at 11:33 PM PDT: "Still cooking... and reset." Day 14 passed without a declaration, marking the first unfulfilled day. Total count: 9 days of releases, 7 days of resets, and 1 day unfulfilled.
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 14 (October 18 UTC), has yet to be named. Tibo asked "What’s cooking today" on Sunday morning and wrote "People are asking for resets on the street. I'll make little cards to hand out" in the afternoon, but no "Day 14/" post appeared before the UTC day ended. In his own calendar (PDT), nearly 6 hours remain.
OpenAI's 28-day rollout, Day 13 (October 17 UTC), is a reset. Tibo wrote "Day 13/ Le limit reset" and set a deadline by replying 16 seconds later, saying it would arrive "sometime today by EOD PST." Four hours and 51 minutes later, he simply posted "Done." He didn't say what was finished, and responded "Pot committed" when asked why Codex gives resets every day. The current tally is 9 days released and 6 days of resets.
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 12 (October 16 UTC), is out. Tibo's "Day 12/" talks about increasing the "effective usage" of Codex and Work through context reuse between sub-agents, extending cache retention, and improved request routing for better cache hits. No specific numbers are provided for the increase. The post arrived 4 minutes and 49 seconds before the end of Day 12 UTC, with replies calling for numbers and others waiting for a reset.
OpenAI's 28-day journey, Day 11 (October 15 UTC), is here. Tibo's "Day 11/" states that a series of changes and additional compute have "very significantly" decreased the occurrence of the disruptive "Selected model is at capacity" error, and that if it does occur, it should eventually continue automatically. No specific figures were provided for the reduction, and the way to verify is to "let us know if you still see it."
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 10 (October 14 UTC), was a reset. Tibo's "Day 10/ Reset" arrived at 21:55 Pacific Time, about 5 hours after the date changed in UTC. Just before this, people were worried about the 24-hour silence, to which he replied, "I need to work once in a while." It's coming "within 2 hours." After calling this morning a "blank," Sorami re-counts the day boundaries.
OpenAI's 28-day countdown, Day 9 (October 13 UTC), was a release that reduces the amount stored on disk by the ChatGPT and Codex desktop apps by approximately 60%. Thibault called it a "Small ship." Just 21 hours prior, he wrote that "something pretty insane is coming" and later mentioned "plans that will let everyone use it much more." The Day 8 reset was completed 4 hours and 3 minutes after the announcement, and Sorami predicts the next moves.
At 1:00 AM JST on October 14, Google began rolling out Gemini 4 Argon to the world via paid APIs and the Gemini app (Pro/Ultra). With the "ultimate model that wouldn't arrive" finally here on day 14, Sorami's series concludes today.
