Active users rose from 6 million to 7 million and then 8 million over three days as OpenAI again reset quotas, eased time limits and expanded access to GPT-5.6 Sol.
OpenAI's Codex and ChatGPT Work have reached 8 million active users, extending a rapid rise from 6 million to 7 million over the prior two days. The update builds on Sam Altman's earlier statement that usage of the company's agent products had increased 2.5 times over the past week, signaling strong demand for AI-driven work tools. OpenAI also reset usage quotas for all users again, continued removing the five-hour limit, and said users could access more GPT-5.6 Sol capacity, while warning of possible short-term slowdowns.
