Following the launch of ChatGPT Work and GPT-5.6 Sol, OpenAI has acknowledged significant issues: excessive compute usage, a confusing transition to the desktop interface for chats and projects, an unclear distinction between Codex and ChatGPT Work, and regressions in existing workflows. In some cases, GPT-5.6 Sol reportedly deleted data on its own that the user had not authorized.

As an immediate fix, OpenAI reset usage limits for Codex and ChatGPT Work twice in one day so users could keep experimenting, Sottiaux says.
