NTT DATA deploys ChatGPT Enterprise and Codex across 9,000 employees to reduce incident analysis time to 30 minutes.

GPT-5.6 Codex bug causes unintended file deletions when full access mode + no sandboxing + no auto-review enabled; model confuses $HOME with temp directory.

OpenAI documents internal use of Codex for custom tool development, prototyping, and creative ideation workflows.

OpenAI, which is in the middle of a legal battle with Apple over hardware trade theft allegations, just released a light-up keyboard designed to be paired with its agentic coding app.

The Codex Micro is designed to monitor multiple agentic threads at a glance.

OpenAI is finally releasing some hardware. No, it isn't the mysterious AI-powered device the company is developing with former Apple designer Jony Ive, a project already tangled up in a messy lawsuit. Instead, it's a product designed to be used with its coding platform, Codex. The device, a square-shaped block of buttons called Codex Micro, is a collaboration between the AI company and keyboard maker Work Louder. OpenAI said it is a limited-run collaboration that will give users more ways to monitor and manage their agents. The pad closely resembles Work Louder's Creator Micro 2, and marketin...

Codex user base growing at 1M users daily; limited concrete details on adoption or product impact.

Codex Desktop allows users to create custom animated desktop pets using GPT to generate animations.

OpenAI integrates Codex capabilities into ChatGPT, shifting toward a multi-purpose platform rather than pure chat interface.

Codex usage grew 10x to 7M users in 6 months; article questions whether it has outpaced Claude Code amid sparse adoption metrics.

Automated red-teaming system discovers reusable vulnerability patterns in production LLM agents (Claude Code, Codex) operating on untrusted content.

A big day for OpenAI.

Rebranded Codex promises independent workflows that can run "for hours if needed."

About two weeks after OpenAI's GPT-5.6 was caught up in regulatory drama - rolled out only to government-approved organizations during a "limited preview" period - the company has received the Trump administration's green light for a public rollout of the model. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called it "the best model we have ever produced." To celebrate, OpenAI also unveiled a new AI agent on the same day: ChatGPT Work. It's billed as a combination of ChatGPT and Codex, allowing the everyday non-technical user to take advantage of Codex's capabilities for non-coding tasks, and it's powered by the GPT...

Australian Payments Plus deploys ChatGPT Enterprise and Codex to accelerate payments processing with human oversight.

OpenAI is releasing some sort of device related to its AI-powered coding tool, Codex, on July 15th. In a video posted to X on Monday, OpenAI shows a square-shaped device with several buttons, alongside the caption, "Your favorite Codex shortcuts are getting an upgrade." This isn't the mysterious AI-powered device OpenAI is working on with former Apple designer Jony Ive, however. As shown in the teaser, OpenAI is launching the device in partnership with Work Louder, a company that sells an array of mechanical keyboards and macro pads with mappable keys, dials, and switches. The silhouette of t...

OpenAI internal Codex usage surged 13–56x across departments since Nov 2025, with Research leading adoption.

simonw/browser-compat-db Inspired by Mozilla's new MDN MCP service - source code here - I decided to try converting their comprehensive mdn/browser-compat-data repository full of browser compatibility data into a SQLite database. This new GitHub Repo includes a Claude Code for web (Opus 4.8) generated script for doing that using sqlite-utils . I wanted the resulting ~66MB SQLite database to be available via the GitHub CDN with open CORS headers. GitHub releases don't have those, but any file stored in a regular GitHub repository does - so I had Codex Desktop (GPT-5.5) build a GitHub Actions w...

OpenAI has just revealed a new "intelligence processor" chip for AI servers made in partnership with Broadcom. The chip, called Jalapeño, is designed to power current and future large language models, according to an announcement on Wednesday. Jalapeño is an ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit), meaning it's designed for a specific purpose: AI inference. With AI inference, models process a user's request to run an agent like Codex or offer a response from ChatGPT, while AI training involves a model consuming vast amounts of data to inform its responses. It comes just nine months aft...

OpenAI introduces new Daybreak tools, including Codex Security and GPT-5.5-Cyber, to help organizations find, validate, and patch vulnerabilities at scale.

Learn how Jason Liu uses Codex to preserve context, manage complex projects, and help work continue beyond a single prompt.

Samsung Electronics deploys ChatGPT Enterprise and Codex to employees worldwide, marking one of OpenAI’s largest enterprise AI rollouts.

Temporary Cloudflare Accounts for AI agents The announcement says this is "for AI agents" but (as is pretty common these days) the AI hook isn't really necessary, this is an interesting feature for everyone else as well. Short version: you can now create a Cloudflare Workers project and run this, without even creating a Cloudflare account: npx wrangler deploy --temporary Cloudflare will deploy the application to a new, ephemeral project which will stay live for 60 minutes. I had GPT-5.5 xhigh in Codex Desktop build this test application providing a tool for following HTTP redirects and return...

Existing multi-agent software development systems have proposed many forms of agent collaboration, including role-based collaboration and automated code review. However, many systems assume a common runtime, a central conversation server, or the same API family. Under these assumptions, LLM agents from different vendors cannot easily exchange messages directly from their own execution environments while dividing development and review work on a shared codebase. This paper presents tap, a file-based collaboration protocol that allows Claude (Anthropic) and Codex (OpenAI) to collaborate on one ...

We introduce EpiBench, a verifiable benchmark for short-horizon epigenomics analysis. EpiBench evaluates whether agents can make well-defined analysis decisions from realistic workflow states and return deterministically gradable answers. The benchmark includes 106 evaluations across CUT\&Tag/CUT\&RUN, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, and DNA methylation workflows. Across 5,088 valid trajectories from 16 model-harness pairs, no system passed a majority of attempts: GPT-5.5 / Pi led at 45.0\% (143/318 attempts; 95\% confidence interval (CI), 36.3--53.7), followed by GPT-5.5 / OpenAI Codex at 39.9\% (127/31...

Release: datasette 1.0a33 This alpha is a significant step on the road to a stable 1.0, finally extending the ?_extra= pattern I introduced in Datasette 1.0a3 to cover queries and rows in addition to tables. That pattern is also now documented ! I wrote a whole lot more about the new release on the Datasette project blog: Datasette 1.0a33 with JSON extras in the API . Because API explorer tools are almost free to build now I had Claude Fable 5 in Claude Code (for the plan ) and GPT-5.5 xhigh in Codex Desktop (for the implementation ) build me this custom extras API explorer to help demonstrat...
