I genuinely don’t understand how is everyone having such a bad experience. Granted, I hardly chat or use it for research, but every task I’ve given to codex has been successfully fulfilled. Two last ones were optimizing a web page that drew entire world map with lots of details (actually blew my mind, it was like 95% faster) and fixing a mod in a videogame. I’ve created custom app for a radio station I loved but didn’t have basic features like previous songs, I’ve created an entire web game in 3 hours, I’ve created mods for games, etc., all without a fail.
This thing has saved me lots of headache, yes everyone here claims it’s so bad and useless and a complete bubble, meanwhile in the last year it has basically only started working and only now can businesses start adapting it (I’m sure early adaptors were not happy)
Absolutely it’s got a lot better, and it can do a lot of things, but it can also oopsie wipe your entire repo (and be very apologetic afterwards). I can’t understand how you’ve not heard those stories and I can’t understand how you would give one executive power if you had.

I don’t quite understand why would you even assume this. Codex has no access to repo, network access needs manual approval, it is sandboxed to project directory (backup’ed after every step) and commands (which is mostly PowerShell since I’m on windows) needs reviews and approvals.
I can only assume the people who got burnt didn’t practice basic sanity as you obviously can’t trust LLMs

I’ve heard people doing that way more often.
