OpenAI takes the Codex mobile


Good morning {{first_name| Artificial intelligence lovers}}. AI coding agents can now work for hours at a time. Sitting at your desk all the time doesn’t have to be a necessity…or carrying a computer to keep things running.

Codex going mobile within the ChatGPT app is OpenAI’s long-awaited answer to this problem, allowing users to approve decisions, start new tasks, and make changes from their phones as agents return to the office.

  • OpenAI’s Codex moves beyond the desktop

  • OpenAI, Apple’s ‘deteriorating’ relationship.

  • Automate marketing assets with ChatGPT Images 2.0

  • Anthropy angers developers with new dealer credit split

  • 4 new tools for AI, community workflows, and more

Rundown: OpenAI only Rolled Codex is previewing within the ChatGPT iOS app across all plans, giving developers a way to track, manage and act on long-running AI tasks from their phones as the company competes with Anthropic for the programming tools market.

  • Codex continues to run on a laptop or remote host, with users able to access live threads, code changes, approvals, plugins, and start new tasks via mobile.

  • The mobile system uses a “secure relay layer” that does not expose the computer to the open Internet, and synchronizes with other ChatGPT instances, OAI said.

  • OAI appears to be referring directly to Anthropic in its blog, saying it’s “more than just the ability to remotely control a single task or send new tasks to your computer.”

  • Anthropic foot Remote control In February and send in March, giving Claude limited mobile access and desktop access on the go.

Why it matters: Days of users walking around with it Open computers Keeping customers running may be coming to an end. Especially as models continue to get better at working for hours at a time, keeping things moving on the go is a major quality of life update that frees users from desks and computers.

TOGETHER WITH BRAINTRUST

Rundown: Braintrust is a comprehensive platform to evaluate, monitor, and iterate AI products. Teams at Notion, Vercel, and Stripe use it to catch regressions before users do, correct agent behavior across thousands of traces, and turn iterations from guesswork into a measurable, repeatable workflow.

With Braintrust, you can:

  • Evaluation prompts, models, and proxies side by side

  • Track every agent and apply LLM call

  • Run evaluations against production impacts

Rundown: It is said that OpenAI Looking Legal action taken against Apple over 2024 ChatGPT-Siri deal A law firm is being enlisted to explore options that could include a breach of contract notice over the partnership’s “deteriorating” results.

  • sides I entered into a deal In 2024 during the initial launch of Apple Intelligence, giving Siri the ability to call ChatGPT for more complex queries.

  • OAI expected the deal to bring “billions” in paid subscriptions to ChatGPT, but internal data showed users preferred the standalone app over Apple’s limited integration.

  • The iPhone maker plans to open Siri to competing AI providers like Anthropic’s Claude and Google Gemini in iOS 27, and is scheduled to make its debut at WWDC on June 8.

  • Apple was also allegedly “angry” over poaching of OAI from its hardware teams, with OAI also emerging as a potential competitor through the Jony Ive deal.

Why it matters: Like everything else at Apple Intelligence, the ChatGPT integration was a failure, and now it appears that another OAI relationship with a tech giant is on thin ice. But with rumors about her Private phone By 2027, there could be significant new competition in the AI ​​hardware market – especially if Siri’s relaunch doesn’t live up to expectations.

Artificial intelligence training

Rundown: In this guide, you’ll learn how to use Codex Desktop to create a ChatGPT Images 2.0 app that turns your marketing campaign and design brief into prompts, test images, and a review gallery.

  1. Create a project folder and initialize git: mkdir gpt-image-review-app cd gpt-image-review-app git init. Open the folder in Codex Desktop

  2. Have Codex create a native browser application for GPT Image 2.0, where you can enter a marketing summary, create editable claims, create test images, choose image dimensions, and review the output using the Keep, Reject, and Needs Review controls

  3. After creation, add your OpenAI API key to the app’s .env file, run the app locally, and describe your campaign, design brief, and required image formats

  4. Click Create Prompts, then click Create Test Images. Review the output using retention, rejection, and needs labels, then save the strongest results

Pro Tip: Once the application is running, use Codex Desktop Annotation Mode to click or drag over fixes for aspects such as labels, spaces, states, controls, or layout.

Rundown: Anthropic Announce A policy that would split Cloud Proxy usage into a monthly credit pool, restoring support for third-party proxy tools but angering power users in the process by isolating them from regular subscription limits.

  • Starting June 15, the Agent SDK and claude -p no longer pull subscription limits, and will only be used in Claude Code, Cowork, and Chat.

  • Pro users will get $20 per month in agent credits, Max 5x gets $100, and Max 20x gets $200 – with credits reset after each billing cycle and not rolled over.

  • The move reverses Anthropic’s April ban on third-party proxies like OpenClaw, but eliminates support that gave its plans much more value in computing.

  • The move led to backlash from power users, along with T3 founder Theo Brown and hundreds of others in public Cancel their subscriptions

Why it matters: The ability for agents to burn tokens has broken the AI ​​subscription model, but Anthropic also hasn’t done itself any favors with the developer community lately. These micro-token allocations seem worse than blocking proxies outright – and rightfully so as the OAI continues to raise Codex limits to encourage switching.

In each newsletter we show how the reader is using AI to work smarter, save time or make life easier.

Today’s workflow comes from the reader Nicholas D. In Quebec:

For months, Claude was my personal trainer, tracking my habits, building my workouts, and adjusting my plans. Every Sunday, I feed Claude a log of the past week – sessions, well-being, pain – and he creates a program for next week.

Then it hit me: My habits are tied to long-term goals. So why don’t we manage them like projects?

I’ve worked in project management for years. I created a Gantt chart linked directly to my habit tracking software. The tracker now acts as a time system – each logged session becomes a completed task on the timeline. I manage my life projects the same way I manage my work projects. Best decision I made to stay consistent.”
