We are becoming more and more as a tool for sth to be done rather than the brain behind it. At least I start to feel this way. The joy of discovery, exploration and experiencing at first hand... It is slowly diminishing for the perfection of the quick outcome.

I wish things like bikes came with mostly-written manuals. Maybe a few diagrams. If anything, things are too pictorial these days.

This seems like a step towards their plan for building a platform in competition of Google/Apple. Once the generative UIs are polished and more useful than individual apps, their hardware can now ship a device which circumvents the app store moat.

I'm confused. Are they trying steamroll every developers B2C product or are they wanting these same developers to continue building MCP-App plugins on the platform?

It's much simpler: they want others to experiment (and pay them) and see what works, once they know what works they will drive out of market other players.

what would you wager the % of codex token usage is folks generating interfaces/building apps?
seems a bit like a snake eating its own tail

"More than" 20% of the connected world uses ChatGPT each week eh? I guess if you add Anthropic who must also claim 20% and Google, Meta.. that does not sound realistic at all.

- Anthropic’s total user base is minuscule compared to the rest, and they have never claimed otherwise.
- People don’t have to stick to a single provider. They can all claim the same 20%.

All those recipe blogs and sites that have figured out the most inefficient way to deliver information are finally cooked.

I am pretty convinced that businesses will be making custom internal software as a norm in the next few years, and this seems to be a slight push in that direction

Alright doing it here, all the functionality we need and no reoccurring yearly costs of tens of thousands of dollars. Took me a couple weeks to wire it all up with codex.

AFAIK, they already had a simpler form of this. It was kind of an obvious next step. Now connect it up to tools so that we can again comfortably do the things that are more precise by hand! The “pick a color” or “select the width on a slider” use case is coming closer.

For once Gemini did it first. I never found those mini GUIs useful though. More like a waste of time and energy.
