In the event you haven’t kicked the tires but on the most recent and biggest ChatGPT and Claude fashions, that is your fortunate week.
OpenAI is (fittingly) opening the flood gates to GPT-5.6 Sol, its just-released and strongest mannequin, asserting Sunday that it’s “quickly” lifting the five-hour utilization window for ChatGPT Plus, Enterprise, and Professional subscribers.
On the similar time, Anthropic is – once more – extending the trial interval for Fable 5, its personal new top-of-the-line, giving Claude subscribers one other week of in-plan entry. Anthropic can also be doubling Claude Cowork utilization limits till August fifth and boosting weekly Claude Code limits by 50 % by way of July nineteenth.
The relaxed utilization limits are solely non permanent, after all, and the cynical manner of taking a look at them is that Anthropic and OpenAI are simply whetting our appetites earlier than tighter utilization restrictions return into impact.
Then once more, it may merely be the results of competitors between the rival AI giants, with OpenAI making an attempt to scoop up Anthropic subscribers irritated by the beforehand introduced and tighter restrictions on Fable 5, and Anthropic responding in sort.
Regardless of the purpose, now is an effective time for ChatGPT and Claude subscribers to reap the advantages of the relaxed utilization limits, notably in terms of GPT-5.6 and Fable.
Apart from (quickly) lifting its traditional five-hour utilization window, OpenAI says it’s optimizing the GPT-5.6 Sol’s reasoning and “mutli-agent” use to protecting it from burning so many AI tokens.
For now, it seems GPT-5.6 Sol will stay on ChatGPT subscription plans, with no indication from OpenAI that subscribers might want to purchase utilization credit for the brand new mannequin (apart from those that’ve burned by way of their common utilization limits).
Anthropic has warned it is going to ultimately pull Fable 5 from its subscription plans, though an Anthropic exec has (now) repeated an earlier promise that “we purpose to revive Fable as a regular a part of our subscriptions as quickly as capability permits.”
