Insiders reveal how OpenAI’s rapidly growing coding agent works, why developers are delegating tasks to it, and what it means for the future of software work.

Figma is integrating OpenAI's coding assistant Codex a week after it announced a similar integration with Anthropic's Claude Code.

OpenAI is trying to win market share from rivals like Anthropic and Cursor as AI coding tools gain in popularity.

In a major milestone for the "AI coding wars," OpenAI CEO Sam Altman confirmed on X that the company's standalone Codex application (currently only for Mac computers) surpassed 1 million downloads in its first week of availability, echoing the explosive growth of OpenAI's hit chatbot ChatGPT after it first launched in late 2022.

OpenAI announced yesterday Codex Desktop, a new native macOS app that treats AI coding agents like teammates you can direct, review and set loose on long tasks.

After several weeks of testing, Apple today released Xcode 26.3, an update that allows developers to use tools like Anthropic's Claude Agent and OpenAI's Codex for app creation directly in Xcode. With support for agentic coding,

The company says its latest model’s agentic skills also apply to a broader set of knowledge work such as presentations and spreadsheets. On Thursday, OpenAI released GPT-5.3-Codex, a new model that extends its Codex coding agent beyond writing and reviewing code to performing a much wider range of work tasks.

Last week, The Midas Project claimed OpenAI failed to implement legally required safeguards for models classified as high cybersecurity risks, as outlined in its own safety framework. GPT-5.3-Codex is part of OpenAI's effort to reclaim its lead in AI-powered coding and,

OpenAI introduces Harness Engineering, an AI-driven methodology where Codex agents generate, test, and deploy a million-line production system. The platform integrates observability, architectural constraints,
