I work at a very big company and I have unlimited access to Codex with no visibility on token usage. I don't know if this is the norm but seems kind of crazy to everyone in my team

Same, however managers are starting to ask questions, like 'what can we do to help remove bottlenecks' (they think sprinkle unlimited tokens -> revenue multiplies). In actual fact what happens is devs benefit.

It's like the company gave every senior dev a super eager brilliant fellow coder to do their work for them so they can 'do more important things' i.e. Netflix and sleep.

'Yes still working on this ticket' When codex/cc completed it flawlessly last week. The upside is absorbed by the devs knowing they could be soon surplus to requirements.

At the moment a lot of companies thinking of it like speculative capex - we can just stop doing it if we don’t get results, or we can easily optimize.

My concern is that with all the bundling that the model labs are doing the lock-in becomes harder than anticipated to unwind
