Developers say AI coding tools work—and that's precisely what worries them

AI coding tools like Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex have advanced to the point where they can build entire applications with human supervision. OpenAI uses Codex to build Codex itself and recently shared technical details about the tool. Professional developers are divided on whether these tools are entirely positive, with some acknowledging their effectiveness while others remain skeptical of the marketing hype surrounding them. Despite differing opinions, there is a consensus that AI coding tools have significantly improved in the past six months, with developers noting a 10x speed improvement for complex tasks.

OpenAI built an AI coding agent and uses it to improve the agent itself

OpenAI has developed an AI coding agent called Codex, which is used to enhance and refine itself. Codex, launched in May 2025, is a cloud-based software engineering tool that can perform tasks such as writing code, fixing bugs, and suggesting pull requests. The tool operates in sandboxed environments connected to a user's code repository and can handle multiple tasks simultaneously. OpenAI provides Codex through various interfaces, including ChatGPT, a command-line interface, and IDE extensions. The name "Codex" is linked to a previous OpenAI model that powered GitHub Copilot, showcasing the potential of AI in understanding and accelerating coding tasks.
