OpenAI admits it "didn't get everything quite right" with ChatGPT Work launch and scrambles to fix UX and costs

Following the launch of ChatGPT Work and GPT-5.6 Sol, OpenAI has acknowledged significant issues: excessive compute usage, a confusing transition to the desktop interface for chats and projects, an unclear distinction between Codex and ChatGPT Work, and regressions in existing workflows.
