🆕 OpenAI Developers GPT-5.5 is now generally available and rolling out in GitHub Copilot. Our early testing shows ➡️ It delivers its strongest performance on complex agentic coding tasks ➡️ It resolves real-world coding challenges previous GPT models couldn’t Try it out in Copilot CLI or Visual Studio Code. 👇

@OpenAIDevs OpenAI increased the price 2x, and token usage is supposedly better ...and you jack the price 7.5x ?????

@OpenAIDevs Whelp, time to move on.

@OpenAIDevs

@OpenAIDevs 7.5x usage feels really high especially when your entire usage count is per-prompt.

@OpenAIDevs Oh, wow a 7.5x multiplier, makes sense as it's more expensive compared 5.4, but still! Also Pro+ only, I used to recommend people Copilot to test out the frontier models at a fraction of cost, not anymore!

@OpenAIDevs Microsoft said Copilot drove over 40% of GitHub’s FY2024 revenue growth, with GitHub now at a $2B revenue run rate. So making GPT-5.5 a 7.5x premium request multiplier feels ridiculous. Make it 1x or 2x.

@OpenAIDevs 7.5x

@OpenAIDevs 7.5x is oof

@OpenAIDevs A really odd time to massively hike pricing just when copilot seemed to be gaining momentum.

@OpenAIDevs Another 7.5x model holy shit rate limited must get highered then cause 7.5 x is huge for two new models

@OpenAIDevs Fix the rate limit s*** first! Before can even think of going back to GitHub copilot!

@OpenAIDevs Copilot just went from helpful intern to senior engineer overnight. Agentic mode is actually shipping features now.

@OpenAIDevs Wow… 7.5x for promotional?

@OpenAIDevs has to be a fucking joke, 7.5 again. who tf you think you are

@OpenAIDevs 7.5x is too damn high! Stop screwing over your customers!

@OpenAIDevs I am pretty sure that microsoft knows they are pushing users away from copilot. 7.5x and they are also planning on moving to token based usage. While openai only increased the price by 2x, with better token usage.

@OpenAIDevs With the same multiplier as for Opus 4.7? Sorry but your new policy with the removal of some LLMs has destroyed all interest in Github Copilot.

@OpenAIDevs 7.5X LOLOLOLOLLLLLL

@OpenAIDevs Be careful out there. ⚠️ GitHub merged PRs incorrectly yesterday (4/23) due to a merge queue regression affecting squash & rebase merges. This is an Industry standard platform, reputation on the line

@OpenAIDevs Note that this model is launching with a 7.5× premium request multiplier as part of promotional pricing. promotional pricing LOL xD

@OpenAIDevs It’s still not showing up on vscode 😭😭

@OpenAIDevs 5.5 cost 7.5x or 15x is fine. But can you share with us whether you would keep 5.4 forever at 1x? We just want some level of certainty.

This is where model upgrades start to feel real, not just benchmark-real. Once agentic coding tasks get meaningfully better, product expectations around developer workflows change fast. Curious what people here think gets rebuilt first: IDE UX, copilots, or the workflow layer around them?

@OpenAIDevs Not going to touch it.. that thing gets your account week ban rate limited in minutes. People reported having multi day bans on Pro+ licenses before even the 2nd prompt was finished. Copilot is not a platform you can trust anymore

@OpenAIDevs Most people commenting still don’t really understand how ghcp pricing works. 1x user request is about 4 cents. So 30 cents for 7.5x. You can do a lot with one user request if you optimize towards that, which you can do with subagents (free) and askQuestions tool. Still cheap.

Lol, the x7.5, you are assholes, capable of stuffing yourselves with money without any limit, and especially without any shame. You're disgusting.

@OpenAIDevs Absolutely ridiculous rug pull on GitHub copilot pro users who grew accustomed to the best frontier models in vscode

@OpenAIDevs

@OpenAIDevs 7.5x

@OpenAIDevs 7.5 is crazy

@OpenAIDevs consider adjusting the rate limits? I have only used a handful of times, yet I have already triggered the rate limit and must wait until next week. under these circumstances, I do not feel that I will be able to fully utilize the premium requests quota. 🥲

@OpenAIDevs "Complex agentic coding tasks" sounds great until you realize Copilot is still a single-agent tool. The bottleneck in production isn't the model - it's constraint files, recovery logic, state management. Ship GPT-10, won't matter without multi-agent coordination.

@OpenAIDevs It's so bizarre... 2x the API price but much more token efficient compared to 5.4... why a 10x price bump? (7.5x is the promotional pricing)

@OpenAIDevs The interesting shift isn't just better code generation. As models get stronger at agentic workflows, the bottleneck moves from writing code to understanding large codebases, dependencies, and business logic. The model that understands context best wins.

@OpenAIDevs Copilot now has hidden session and weekly caps, meaning you’re restricting both token usage and the number of calls. This is too mean.
