@kallaway OpenAI just launched a massive update for Codex.
If you’re building anything on the internet, this will be a major unlock.
Codex can now generate fully functional previews of whatever you’re building directly in the sidebar.
This means docs, PDFs, and slides, but also full apps that you can see and test right in your workflow.
It can also create images and assets super easily using ImageGen for mockups, UI elements, and even games.
What this really means is that a lot more of your work can now be handled right in this Codex experience without you needing to leave and tab all around.
Now the sneaky most impressive thing about this Codex update…actually has nothing to do with coding.
It’s all about productivity.
The upgraded Codex is now one of the best tools in the world for automating your daily work.
So even if you don’t code, you should be using this to get your work done a lot faster.
This is my favorite feature.
Codex now has full Computer Use…meaning it can see, click, and type across any app in the background to complete whatever task you need.
It also has access to all the plugins and skills you’d want.
So you can use it to create something like your own Chief of Staff automation that scans Slack, Notion, Gmail, and Calendar and fully preps you every morning.
I’m telling you, this new Codex update will help a ton with productivity.
You can download it at openai.com or comment “AI” and I’ll send you the link directly.

OpenAI just launched a massive update for codecs. If you're building anything on the Internet, this will be a huge unlock. Codecs can now generate fully functional previews of whatever you're building directly in the sidebar. This means docs, PDFs, and slides, but also full apps that you can see and test right in your workflow. It can also create images and assets super easily with ImageGen for mock ups, UI elements, or even games. What this really means is that a lot more of your work can now be done directly in the codecs experience without needing to leave and tab around. Now I will say, the sneaky worst impressive thing about this update has nothing to do with coding at all. It's all about productivity because the upgraded codecs is now one of the best tools in the world for automating your daily work. So even if you don't code, you should be using this to get a ton of your work done way faster. This is my favorite feature. Codecs now has full computer yes, meaning it can see, click, and type on any app in the background for whatever task you need it for. It also has access to all the plugins and skills that you'd worst. So you can use it to create something like your chief of staff morning automation where it scans Slack, Notion, Gmail, and Calendar and preps you for the day every morning. If you wanna try it out, you can download it at openai.com or just comment a I and I'll send you the link.
