OpenAI doubles Pro limits, and ChatGPT and Codex will share one allowance in December
Plus, Pro and Business plans move to a single token pool; Instant chat stays unlimited.
Put it to work. Check Settings, Usage now and see which recurring jobs burn the most tokens, so you know what to trim before the shared pool starts.
-

Researchers showed a booby-trapped shared chat could read private conversations. OpenAI has patched it.
Put it to work. Treat shared AI chat links like any link from a stranger. Open them only from people you know.

A Claude agent chose a gene therapy and ran the procedure on a lab mouse
A human surgeon held a physical kill switch, and the agent refused to override a safety limit midway.
Put it to work. Copy the safety pattern, not the stunt. When an agent can take irreversible actions, require human approval for them and keep a one-click way to cut it off.
