I’ve got Codex (voice) in CarPlay. And it’s fantastic.
I can now build things during road trips, while all 5 kids make a noise and my wife asks why I talk to the AI more than I talk to her.
It runs through my Nightblood iOS app, which gives ChatGPT Voice a face, personality and full access to Codex, my Mac and all the native tools.
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.
