Yuchen Jin: The OpenAI vs. Anthropic subscription battle is about tokens per dollar
Yuchen Jin commented that the focus of the OpenAI vs. Anthropic subscription competition is no longer on whose model is best, but on who offers more tokens per dollar. The Tibo post he cited announced that usage limits for all Pro 100/200/500 tiers and Business Premium are doubled, the usage limit for Pro 200 will no longer be reduced, and Work and Codex usage remain unchanged.

We heard your kind feedback and won’t be reducing usage limits for Pro 200, so your Work and Codex usage will stay the same. We’re also going to continue offering extended limits for dots for now, and usage of your dot will still continue to be separate from your default usage. And we'll of course also keep shipping better models and other efficiency improvements that increase your effective usage over time.
