OpenAI users report frequent usage limit resets, exceeding weekly allowances

A user on Reddit has observed that OpenAI's usage limits appear to reset more frequently than their stated weekly allowance. This user, who also subscribes to Claude, finds that OpenAI's frequent resets allow them to utilize their subscription more than the advertised weekly limit, estimating they get approximately 2.4 times their weekly usage. They are curious if this is a common benefit or if they are missing some aspect of OpenAI's usage policy. AI
