The ChatGPT subscription gives you access to the -spark model(s) in Codex which are blazing fast (but pretty dumb) which I think runs on Cerebras hardware too.
is this specifically in codex? have been trying to use the models for months on opencode then pi but it says chatgpt subscriptions don't have access to it - i was under the assumption that OpenAI doesn't lock down their models based on harness a la Claude Code
Plus. No wonder - i suspected this but i couldnt find any docs. Side note, how are you liking Pro? I have really been considering getting Pro recently, but not sure if its more worth to just switch to openrouter. I feel like my usage currently barely outstrips the plus usage limits and Pro would be too much, and using Openrouter by default would mean I would have a lot more leeway to run more random lighter workloads without worrying about using up my limit, but I'll really miss GPT 5
I find it to be excellent. I have three Pro subscriptions so I can build stuff 24/7. I only use GPT 5.5 xhigh. Before 5.5 I wasted a lot of time with bugs. I want to make sure that doesn't happen again -- if I can help it.
