Codex Computer Use grabs a voicemail access code through iPhone call screening

A user says **Codex Computer Use** pulled off a very unlikely but funny task: it used iPhone call screening to retrieve an access code that had been left in voicemail. The post doesn’t add technical details, but the implication is clear: the agent was able to chain together phone workflows in a way that feels both impressive and absurd. A neat “introvert’s dream” demo, and a good example of how computer-use agents can do oddly human office tasks.
