Forget autocomplete — this is agent-complete. On Episode 6 of the OpenAI Podcast, Greg Brockman and Codex lead Thibault Sottiaux join Andrew Mayne to talk about the leap from code suggestions to coding agents, the launch of GPT-5-Codex, and where software development could be by 2030.

This morning, the OpenAI Economic Research team and our co-author Professor David Deming (Harvard University) released a first-of-its-kind research paper on how ChatGPT is being used across the world. This is very exciting for me personally because one of the reasons I joined OpenAI was to produce research on how AI is changing our economy and society. The paper is officially a National Bureau of Economic Research working paper (https://lnkd.in/gPDB3fuq) which means it will contribute to the conversation among leading economists as well as the broader discussion of AI in the media. I’ll be sharing takeaways from the paper on an ongoing basis. One early finding: our user base has shifted over time to better reflect the broader population. For example, just after ChatGPT launched, about 80% of users had typically masculine names. Today, that share is closer to 50%.

Whenever I talk with people about AI, one of the first questions I get is almost always: what will this mean for my job? I believe AI will open up more opportunities than any technology in history – but it will also change how work gets done. Today we’re announcing OpenAI-Certified and the OpenAI Jobs Platform – two new initiatives that are about helping people become fluent in AI and connecting them with employers who need their skills. We can’t eliminate the disruption AI will bring, but we can make sure the benefits are shared broadly, not just by a fortunate few. This is one big step in the right direction.

ChatGPT has transformed the way people code, and GPT-5 is our best and most aesthetically intuitive coding model to date. Designer, developer, and CEO Pietro Schirano uses GPT-5 to bring his app ideas to reality.

GPT-5 is our most creative and best writing model to date. It’s capable of helping you write with literary depth and nuance, and is better at helping you with everyday tasks like drafting and editing reports, emails, memos, and more. See how science comedy writer Sarah Rose Siskind uses GPT-5 to help with ideation and content creation.
