This is pretty hilarious. Guess people forgot how to use PCs and can only prompt now.

Someday my kid is going to ask me why we need 79 keys on a keyboard if we only use "accept" and "accept all".

First question; if theres a knob to adjust thinking level, and I can switch between agents, what if I turn down the knob for one agent and switch to another? Do I just insta-lobotomize it?

I want to make my frontend look clean and pretty like this too.

The developers who build OpenAI's UI seem really skilled.

what happened to the Jonny Ive and them purchasing his agency? 6.5 billions paid, nothing so far, this was such a sus transaction, sounded like the way to get money out of OpenAI.

"OpenAI will launch a portable, screen-free smart speaker as its first consumer hardware product, Bloomberg News has reported, days after Apple sued the AI start-up and two former employees of the iPhone maker for trade-secret theft." [1]

I am surprised they released this. Who is the audience for this? You can DIY this yourself surely.

The people who cannot DIY? There are a surprisingly large number of people who "code" in codex while being completely unable to write a single line of code themselves. Not that I approve, I think this will end in disaster (security or otherwise) and llm shines as a force multiplier not as a replacement, but I've long learned what's correct is not always what's selling.

Finally, a profitable product for OpenAI.

After a few minutes on the site, I have no clue what this is for. A keyboard that interacts with Codex? That’s just a software feature, why am I paying $230 for hotkeys?

If you think that's expensive, don't fall down the mechanical keyboard rabbit hole. There's no upper limit on how much they can be
