Codex user base jumps from 1M to 10M in under six months

• The post says Codex grew from 1 million active users to 10 million in less than six months.
• The sharpest leg of the growth came recently: from 6 million to 10 million users in nine days.
• The accompanying chart shows a steady climb from 1M on Feb 5 to 10M on Jul 21, with a dashed projection to 15M by Aug 2.
