OAI really trying to push folks to either the ad infested tier for gen chat (ChatGPT Go) or Pro ($100/month) for code.

I guess the $20 Plus plan is the red-headed step child now.

Meanwhile, Z.ai coder is what…$9/month? Hmmm.

I don’t have a local rig powerful enough to natively run a good coder (Qwen 3 next), but “I am altering the deal, pray I do not alter it any further” is THE perfect use case for running your shit locally.

PS: It looks like Pro and Plus tiers have gone up a smidge too? Eg: last I checked they were $20 and $100; they now show $30 and $155. I cancelled my account so OAI gifted me a free month (lol) but seriously…fuck that.
