OpenAI will no longer limit how many texts free accounts can send to ChatGPT
There will still be limits on image generation, voice mode usage and other features.
OpenAI has announced a significant change to its ChatGPT free and Go accounts, ending the rate limits on text prompts. Starting next week, users can engage in unlimited text conversations with ChatGPT, although usage with additional features like files, images, or voice mode will still be rate-limited. The company will also introduce GPT-5.6 Luna as the default model for free and Go accounts, replacing the previously used GPT-5.5 Instant.
This update will take effect within the week. Additionally, a new "Think" button will be available for free and Go users, allowing them to request more thorough responses from GPT-5.6 Luna without any usage limits. Plus and Pro tier users will also benefit from enhanced ChatGPT experiences, including an optimization of GPT-5.6 Sol model for everyday conversations and a new slider to adjust the level of thought put into the model's responses.
