So in no way would I quit Annual Pro+ now

Started my annual pro+ last-minute in March.

I guess I'll have to stick to it until GPT-6 comes out.

Why there isn't any top LLM providers investing on diffusion LLM?

A year ago, I would’ve said Diffusion LLMs were an interesting idea but still far from practical. They’re still pretty rough, but Mercury 2 now makes it seem like they might finally be getting close to usable.

That said, aside from Meta, Ant, and Inception/Mercury, it doesn’t seem like many labs are seriously investing in them — especially the major ones like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, or even architecture-focused teams like DeepSeek and Kimi.

I’m not very familiar with DLLMs, so I’m curious: why is that? Are there still fundamental issues with the paradigm that make them unlikely to become even second-tier models? Or is current hardware stack a bottleneck for DLLMs training/inference? Or are other labs just working on it quietly and not there yet?

"Early May" is ending, where is the preview?

BTW, what happens if I don’t ask for a refund by May 20? Can I still request it in June? I would really like to experience the new multipliers first and then decide.

I’m still undecided about switching from Copilot to Codex, because a few things are unclear:

The Copilot GPT-5.5 model multiplier still hasn’t been disclosed. (https://www.reddit.com/r/GithubCopilot/comments/1t53aqr/copilot_gpt55_multiplier_is_now_listed_as_75x_tbd/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
There’s no usage preview — I need token usage visibility to compare it properly with Codex. (tried AI Engineering Fluency plugin, which counts the tokens but seems to miss a lot).
The refund policy is vague. I'm not sure what percentage will be refunded. Has anyone received theirs yet? How was it calculated? remaining days / 365? How long does it take? Can I file the request on May 19th?

What the hell does TBD even mean here?

Copilot, are you seriously saying you still haven’t decided how much GPT-5.5 — which has been out for two weeks now — is going to cost? Because this basically reads like:

> “We’ve already decided we’re charging you more, we just haven’t figured out exactly how much more we can squeeze out of you yet.”

At least for now, I guess we can entertain the fantasy that maybe some new specialized chips will roll out (like when Cerebras powered Codex-Spark), and GPT-5.5 pricing could actually come down due to newer deployments. Or maybe Microsoft and Sam Altman are in the middle of some other negotiations right now?
