OpenAI, ChatGPT, Codex
So many of the things that pioneered the way for the truly good (Claude, Gemini) to evolve. I am thankful for what they have done.
But the quality is gone, and they are now in catch-up mode. This is clear, not just from the quality of GPT-5.x outputs, but from this article.
They launch something new, flashy, should get the attention of all of us. And yet, they only launch to Apple devices?
Then, there are typos in the article. Again. I can't believe they would be sloppy about this with so much on the line. EDIT: since I know someone will ask, couple of examples - "7MM Tokens", "...this prompt initial prompt..."
And why are they not giving the full prompt used for these examples? "...that we've summarized for clarity" but we want to see the actual prompt. How unclear do we need to make our prompts to get to the level that you're showing us? Slight red flag there.
Anyway, good luck to them, and I hope it improves! Happy to try it out when it does, or at the very least, when it exists for a platform I own.
- rirze 8mo agoNot sure when you last evaluated the tools, but I strongly prefer Codex to Claude Code and Gemini. Codex gets complex tasks right and I don't keep hitting usage limits constantly. (this is comparing the 20$ ChatGPT to the 200$ Claude Pro Max plans fwiw) The tooling around ChatGPT and Codex is less, but their models are far more dependable imo than Antropic's at this very moment.
- touristtam 8mo agoI am not sure how those TUI are going to fare against multi providers ones like opencode.
- rirze 8mo agoI wouldn't get used to opencode personally. I can imagine OpenAI/Antropic explictly banning 3rd party clients from using their subscription plans. (I believe Antropic has already done this)
- girvo 8mo agoI don’t hit Codex limits because it’s so much slower, is what I’ve found personally.
- deepfriedbits 8mo agoI can't speak to the typos, but launching first for MacOS not something new for OpenAI. They did the same with their dedicated desktop client.
- halflings 8mo agoThe main thing I noticed in the video is that they have heavily sped up all the code generation sections... seems to be on 5x speed or more. (because people got used to how fast and good Sonnet, and especially Gemini 3.0 Flash, are)
- nl 8mo ago> truly good (Claude, Gemini) to evolve Claude yes, but Codex is much better than Gemini in every way that matters except speed in my experience. Gemini 3 Flash is an amazing model, but Gemini 3 Pro isn't great. It can do good work, but it's pretty random if it will or it will go off the rails and do completely the wrong thing. OTOH GPT 5.2 Codex with high thinking is the best model currently available (slightly better than Opus 4.5)
