emollick · x · 2026-07-18
Emad MoIlick praised Codex's computer use, noting it can autonomously download and install Blender, use it to create a 3D otter, and turn it into a short animation.
His only manual action was clicking once on Windows to approve the Blender installation. He described the overall experience as "neat."
