OpenAI Replaces ChatGPT App with Codex
bennash · x · 2026-07-13
The author complained that OpenAI replaced the consumer-facing ChatGPT app with Codex, branding it as "Chat," which will likely confuse average users.
For example, users might encounter warnings that gpt-5.2-codex doesn't support certain use cases without knowing how to switch models. The author personally dislikes this change.
