With vibe coding all the rage, OpenAI says Codex can take on more development chores in a safe and explainable way.
OpenAI is launching a cloud-based software engineering agent called Codex in an attempt to ride a wave of hype surrounding vibe coding or building software using AI. It says this tool will let developers automate more of their work in a way that should be both safer and less opaque than existing tools. OpenAI’s Codex is available through the web for ChatGPT Pro users from today.
OpenAI says the model behind Codex has been trained to explain what it is doing more clearly and help developers fix what they are building and that the use of a virtual computer makes the system safer by design. It is already possible to write and analyze code using ChatGPT and similar chatbots. OpenAI already offers a Codex command-line tool that can generate code. The new web-based Codex, which OpenAI calls “research previous,” runs its own mini computer within a browser.
