OpenAI Unveils Codex "Superapp" Update with Computer Use, Automations, Built-In Browser, and More - MacStories

Codex just got a ton of new capabilities.

On the productivity side of things, the update allows Codex to operate your desktop apps, interacting with interface elements and inputting text, for example. We’ve seen computer use from other AI companies before, but one thing that sets Codex apart is its ability to work in your apps in the background so they don’t steal the focus from whatever app you’re already using.

These systems are moving so fast it is impossible to keep up.
