As a person that hasn’t used Claude code before, I’ve been using OpenAI’s Codex and it is pretty amazing. I wonder how much more amazing Claude is.

- Someone1234 7mo agoBoth are great, where they differ is: Claude Code has a better instinct than Codex. Meaning it will naturally produce things like you, the developer, would have. Codex shines really well at what I call "hard problems." You set thinking high, and you just let it throw raw power at the problem. Whereas, Claude Code is better at your average day-to-day "write me code" tasks. So the difference is kind of nuanced. You kind of need to use both a while to get a real sense of it.
- mchusma 7mo agoI think the way I and others use it is code with clause, review or bug hunt with codex. Then I pass the review back to Claude for implementation. Works well. Better than codex implementation and finds gaps versus using Claude to review itself in my opinion.
