It is nearly 2am and the only reason I just finished all of my urgent work is Codex Voice Mode.
Good god.
How is everyone not freaking out about this?
I feel like the way I'm working looks completely different than a month ago.
Basic examples:
"Hey take a look at this paragraph - what do you think?"
"What else is on my list?"
"I'm going to edit this while you find that doc"
"Download my latest IG reel, make a good thumbnail for it - I'm gonna go fill up my water, holler if you need me"
"Just sent the 15 client emails - check against the list while I start on the script"
"Wait! Ah! I forgot I need to paint my nails - find me time" (books a 30min slot that is before filming tomorrow but with enough time to dry my nails)
"check slack, email, our fireflies sweeps, i'm not missing anything?" (catches LP capital call that was buried in a folder)
But it's less about use case and more about the ambient interaction. It probably sounds like a negligible difference to speak to an ambient assistant versus click to speak, but it is a world of difference in practice.
Hypertasking feels voice-enabled.
Voice AI (plus visuals on-demand) really is the interface of the future.
Only annoying thing: when I want to dictate to type something in (ex: a slack message to my team), it hears that, which requires I mute my side, then dictate, then unmute.

Voice should be much better at keeping track of delegated tasks in this week’s release. Jiayu is the goat.
Today’s fix should help with the feedback rate for the delegate work on the Codex voice
I noticed my wrong assumption in how wait_threads works. After today’s release I think your codex voice should track at most 8 parallel jobs effortlessly.

My interview with OpenAI President Greg Brockman is up. Some of the headlines:
- He admits ChatGPT desktop app is a mess, but will get better
- New devices are coming soon
- The Apple fight isn’t slowing them down
- Voice is a very big deal and Brockman thinks it will be the primary interface in future
Plus, I let ChatGPT ask interview questions. Watch the whole thing.

This has to be AGI. Just tried this new voice model & it was the most elegant, fast & productive coding session I have ever had.
It genuninely felt like talking to Tony Stark's Jarvis.
Voice just makes so much sense and
@OpenAI has just unlocked a new level of productivity here.

Everyone's calling ChatGPT Voice their Jarvis moment Here's mine.
Tried to boost a post, Meta said I needed an ad account first. Instead of doing the annoying setup myself, I just told ChatGPT Voice to do it.
Zero keyboard. Zero mouse. It handled the entire Meta Business Suite flow only the waiting is cut.

HAHAHAHAHA THE NEW CHATGPT VOICE MODE IS ABSOLUTELY CRACKED ‼️‼️‼️
I just had it autonomously 3d scan and print an object using my macbook ON THE FIRST TRY 🤯
(I've never touched this complicated scanner software in my life prior)

ChatGPT voice feels like an architectural and user interface breakthrough for harnesses .. I didn't expect to be this floored by it.
The biggest unlock is that it's cross conversation so you can fluidly move across projects. For anyone using coding agents in even a mildly ambitious way, you get overwhelmed by the number of agents and /recap is insufficient for putting all the context back in your head. So it's a big productivity improvement.
Perhaps the bigger deal is that it feels like the first aha moment of a true ambient consumer assistant. I think that the abstraction away from model selectors, git worktrees etc will free consumers to just literally ask for what they want and have it magically appear.
In retrospect this may be an important moment in both harness architecture and consumer interfaces to allow the technology to diffuse much more broadly.

Bro it’s July 2026. Why are you still monologuing at your computer? You should be engaging in Socratic Dialogue™
Bro it’s June 2026. Stop hand editing your prompts. Hold down the dictation button and ramble for 10 minutes. Give the model every fragment, caveat, example, and vibe in your head. It is literally a large language model. If it’s superhuman at anything, it’s reconstructing latent intent from language.

This has easily been the biggest step change in my workflow since Codex
Theres just something about voice that not only makes me more efficient, but just feels so much better than sitting at my desk all day. I can move around, do small chores, or even go on a walk without ever having to stop what I'm working on
Instant boost to my mood and day to day fulfillment in my work

Not gonna lie. This is the greatest innovation they've had to date. Legit superpower unleashed. Jarvis in reality.
just tried codex voice mode and wow that workflow is crazy i can already see glimpses of the future here this is such a delightful product experience genuinely blown away by how good it feels to use
ChatGPT Voice on desktop is my favorite feature this year.
I can talk while Codex works, get updates, and ask it to look at the active app. It feels like Jarvis.
→ `Wait until I ask you to respond.`
→ `Look at this window.` If it can’t, check macOS screen permissions
→ Split into parallel tasks. Ask what’s done and what’s blocked. Interrupt if it drifts
→ Type code, commands, and paths

Now that I’ve used the new ChatGPT Voice (arguable AGI experience) in the desktop app, I can understand why so many of the components released over the last few months were needed to get here.
Computer use had to become much faster. Codex had to be able to create, monitor and intervene in other threads. Voice had to become natural enough to have a proper conversation.
Bring all of that together and it’s magical, a real assistant, rather than just a chatbot with voice.

ChatGPT Voice on desktop is the greatest tool I've ever used in my entire life.
I could strap an arm to this thing and I bet it will make breakfast, lunch, and dinner for me.

Okay I was wrong, my fucking bad 💀
This codex voice shit is crazy
He likes to be thrown around
You should use ChatGPT voice as your chief of staff
Use voice to orchestrate threads and provide the context they need
Spend time chatting about a problem and back and forth and ask it to delegate
You can always come back and ask it to check the status of a task or add more context as needed
Voice can access your remote VMs, threads, plugins and enrich context with app shots
Let it be the one that serves you!

Speaking is faster than typing. Reading is faster than listening. The highest bandwidth interface between humans and AI is asymmetric. That’s how we designed ChatGPT Voice on desktop: speak your thoughts and let the model choose the best way to show you its answer.
