I'm using a personal license and Codex. What does this cost to generate 3x solutions as a starting point?

Even in simple coding I have been doing, I notice Codex will burn through my Open AI subscription rather fast.

I'm using a ChatGPT Plus subscription, and I only use Codex in the cloud [1]. With this setup, I have never hit the usage limit.

On my most active days, I integrate around a dozen fully reviewed and adjusted MRs into my codebase.
