"On the "OpenAI Podcast," which aired on Monday, cofounder and president Greg Brockman and Codex engineering lead Thibault Sottiaux outlined a vision of vast networks of autonomous AI agents supervised by humans but capable of working continuously in the cloud as full-fledged collaborators. "We have strong conviction that the way that this is headed is large populations of agents somewhere in the cloud that we as humanity, as people, teams, organizations supervise and steer in order to produce great economical value," Sottiaux said."
"OpenAI CPO Kevin Weil said on tech entrepreneur Azeem Azhar's podcast "Exponential View" that internal tools like Codex-based code review systems increased efficiency for its engineers. This doesn't mean human coders would be rendered obsolete. Despite successful examples of "vibe coding," it is obvious when a person using the AI agent doesn't know how to code, engineers and computer science professors previously told Business Insider."
OpenAI projects large networks of autonomous AI agents operating in cloud and company data centers under human supervision to generate economic value. GPT-5 Codex can run for hours on complex software projects, handle massive code refactorings, and integrate directly with developer workflows in cloud environments. Internal Codex-based tools have increased engineering efficiency. Human oversight remains essential to maintain alignment and prevent misuse. Human coders retain value because improper use of agents reveals gaps in coding knowledge, and supervision and steering of agent populations are emphasized to ensure useful, aligned outcomes.
