Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth · OpenAI Codex lead on the new shape of product work | Andrew Ambrosino · 28 Jun 2026 podcast

I don't know, man.

Like I am not in the business of saying never or always or whatever.

Yeah.

I think I have the best job in the world right now.

But one of the things that makes it very fun

is that when we were developing the original Codex app, the goal for me personally was to make it the thing that I wrote the code with, right?

I was like, I need to make this so good at development that I can build the Codex app with this.

And the Codex app at that time was a developmental, right?

And we did that like super quick dogfooding loop because you've got your personal dogfooding loop where you're like, oh, like I can't do this thing.

I should fix that so that I can do the thing.

Now I can do the thing.

Now I can do more things, right?

You know, we released that.

And then the next challenge was, hey, people are starting to do some different shaped things with this, right?

And now I...

know need to grow this and so i need to hire a few people and help so then like my role changed at the same time that the role of the app needed to change so i'm like okay i need to do more product discovery here i need to figure out the right loops for seeing what everybody's working on and steering things that are off track and so all of a sudden that's what i started using the codex app for right i did still write code like i've i've tried to align my own usage of it with

the problem that we're trying to solve, right?

And now I'm like, I need to build a spreadsheet that models this out.

I need to kind of do, you know, internal deep research on all of the efforts that have gone into this area of research for the next version of this.

There was a release or a series of releases in May-ish that introduced the in-app browser.
