OpenAI Just Merged ChatGPT and Codex. This Changes Everything.

OpenAI just merged ChatGPT and Codex, released GPT-5.6, and gave nearly a billion people access to an AI that can actually do work. In this episode, I sit down with Ras Mic to break down what this means, why every company should be building agent-native software, and the Codex workflows we’re using right now. We cover computer use, agent loops, automations, multiple threads, the tools that make agents more powerful, and how Codex compares to Claude Code and Fable 5. This is the beginning of an entirely new way of using computers—and most people still have no idea what’s possible.
