OpenAI advertises "unlimited" image generation in Pro. It is not unlimited. [D]

Signed up for ChatGPT Pro for an image generation project. The pricing page says Pro comes with "unlimited and faster image creation" (chatgpt.com/pricing).

A few hundred images in, I got rate limited. Reached out to support, and the response was: "Pro access remains subject to usage allowances."

So the word "unlimited" is... well... a lie. If you need image gen for actual work, heads up: you'll hit a wall after a few hundred images and support won't tell you where the real limit is.

Posting this so anyone considering pro for a similar project doesn't get caught off guard like I did.

Regarding to any potential "that's a lot of images comment", if you look at (https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/image-generation#calculating-costs) you can see that using the API you can generate images for $0.006. So if they were correctly and not falsely advertising this image generation feature I could have used those 100$ to generate roughly 16k images.
