之前 OpenAI 由于算力限制，停止了 200 美元的 Pro 订阅，今天重新开放订阅，同时调整了用量计算方式。
一句话总结就是价格不变，额度打对折。这不是重点，重点是 Tibo 的这段文字游戏（原文放文末），堪称高端玩家。
怎么玩的呢？
官方表示，由于新上线的 GPT-6 Sol 和 Luna 的 API 价格降价了 50%，因此即便订阅额度折半，用户实际能完成的工作量依然比一个月前更多。
是不是有点绕？是不是有点不容易理解？不理解就对了。
API 降价一半，正常情况下 200 美元本应买到过去两倍的额度。结果是：我们新的模型更便宜了，为了用户的「利益」，我们决定保持与之前的额度一致，用户没有任何损失甚至「有赚」。
瓦特？
为了不让用户觉得不爽，还特意放了几颗甜枣：
- 承诺不恢复 5 小时使用限制，允许用户自由支配每周额度
- 承诺模型效率会进一步提升，API 价格会进一步下降
- 会上线一批不消耗日常额度的新功能，目前功能详情未知，但一定然订阅显得更划算
能把变相涨价给你算的明明白白的，OpenAI 也是很行了。
Hi,
Tomorrow we are re-opening the Pro $200 subscriptions to new subscribers, but together with it we are also changing how we calculate the usage for it. In effect, if you do the math, it will net out at half the dollar in API spend compared to the old Pro $200 plan.
Now that it's said, let me explain why this is happening and why you will still get more work done than if you were on the Pro $200 subscription one month ago.
(a) We didn't want to compromise in other ways and are committing to not reintroducing the 5h limit, so that you can fully use the weekly usage when you want.
(b) On the subscription, we guarantee that over time you always get more work done and with an increasing level of quality. This means that you will continue to get more value per dollar spent as a result of models getting more efficient and us passing down the improvements in the form of API price reductions.
(c) We don't want to put an incentive on ourselves to artificially inflate the API list prices to make it look like you are getting a lot (and workaround it through discounts, etc). Instead we want to continue to both rapidly reduce prices and increase capabilities of models on the API. This week we introduced GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna at 50% of their previous price. Over time, we see prices go low enough that it makes sense for most to buy usage as needed without there being a significant gap between what you get in a subscription and what you get in the API for a dollar spent.
(d) Tomorrow, we are adding more things to the subscription that won't draw on the usage, I won't reveal what that is yet.
I wanted to be transparent before all the big announcements tomorrow. Lots of new exciting things are coming to the subscriptions that will make it super compelling, but I wanted to make sure to share this change ahead of time so you can all understand it before we shower you with good news.
Codexingly,
Tibo
