OpenAI Integrates Codex into ChatGPT: Chat to Execution

OpenAI is integrating Codex into ChatGPT. This means users will soon be able to chat and get work done in a single app. The company made this announcement at its "Intelligence at Work" event. Codex was initially a separate app, and now it's joining ChatGPT. This move is part of OpenAI's larger strategy to shift from chat to execution. Codex already has over 5 million monthly active users, a sixfold increase since its desktop version launched in February. Importantly, 20% of these users are not developers, but professionals like analysts and designers, and this group is growing rapidly. OpenAI also revealed that enterprise revenue, largely driven by Codex, now accounts for 40% of its total revenue, projected to reach 50% by year-end. This integration is seen as OpenAI's first step toward becoming a "super app," where users give commands and ChatGPT, powered by Codex, executes them. This could streamline many tasks for users.
