OpenAI Build Week in Santiago shows Codex reaching teachers, engineers and teens
paw_lean · x · 2026-07-23
OpenAI Build Week in Santiago is being used to show how more people are starting to build with AI tools like Codex.
- A teacher presented a Codex plugin that keeps educators in control while letting AI assist.
- An engineer showed a Swift app and also described how his 16-year-old son used Codex to generate a dynamic Minecraft server configuration for him and his friends.
- A physical therapist explored use cases ranging from hardware applications to multi-agent orchestration.
The point of the event: many people think tools like Codex are only for expert builders, but live demos are lowering that barrier.
