Actually, most of my usage of Codex is easy tasks.

And those are the first things you should try.

Then there's hard tasks that are really cool demos.

But actually, if you start trying to do a hard demo, you might just waste a lot of time.

And then there's automating.

So everyone should kind of go through this progression.

It's easy, hard, automated.

And if you think about it, it's kind of like a human teammate.

If you hire someone onto your team,

Usually, well, maybe at OpenAI we do, but you don't just say, hey, just figure out what you want to do.

Maybe what you do is you say, hey, why don't you do this small starter task or something, and then from there, give them a harder and harder task, and then eventually you say, okay, just go figure it out and work automatically.

Okay, easy tasks.

The thing I always recommend people do is wherever your company works at OpenAI, that's Slack, maybe for you it's Teams or it's email, connect Codex to that tool,

And then just ask it like, hey, like, am I missing any urgent, like, do I need to reply to anything urgently?

Just like draft some answers for me.

Or maybe like I get tagged on these really long threads all the time.

It's like, hey, just summarize this thread.

What am I supposed, what am I being asked?

What should I, what should I answer?

You know, just ask these, like these questions.
