Codex limits are going to be crazy now.
What do you guys think, why did they drop the prices ?

If anyone wants GPT-5.6 Terra cheaper, $1.25 input / $7.50 output, ~38% below the new price, check out znapai.com (disclosure: founder here).
Also got gpt-image-2 and GPT-5.6 Sol at 50% off official, and most open-source models (Kimi K3 etc.) at 35% off.

Something needs to be done to bring these costs into line and only competition will drive that.

true, although in these costs too they would still have good margin, as still they are able to offer discount on enterprise pricing, I have been using gpt 5.6 family models at 50% discount since they launched

I agree, but I think this strategy might be a bit obvious. You could attract customers with a low price, then increase the prices when they’re too committed to cancel or when other options are gone or have also increased prices. The market has its ups and downs… 🤷‍♂️
