OpenAI just rolled out Codex in preview inside the ChatGPT iOS app across all plans, giving developers a way to track, manage, and act on long-running AI tasks from their phone as the company battles Anthropic for the coding tool market. Codex continues to run on a laptop or remote host, with users able to access live threads, code changes, approvals, plugins, and start new tasks via mobile.
Winning, on-brand ads—without endless prompting
Most AI creative tools fall short for one simple reason. You can generate tons of ads, but they aren’t up to par.
Refining copy, adjusting layouts, or nudging a CTA into place shouldn’t require rewriting prompts over and over. It slows teams down and breaks the creative process.
With Hightouch Ad Studio, AI gets you 90% of the way there. For the final 10%, use a built-in editor to quickly refine copy and design, or export directly to Figma for seamless collaboration with your design team.
Move faster without losing control. Every ad, exactly how you want it.
Engineering organizations are operating in an environment that is significantly more complex than it was even a few years ago. Modern software delivery now spans distributed cloud infrastructure, platform engineering initiatives, AI-assisted development workflows, microservices architectures, globally distributed teams, and increasingly fragmented operational tooling ecosystems.
/goal is becoming a primitive for coding agents. The feature gives coding workers jobs with a defined done state. With /goal, users write down what 'done' looks like, and agents work towards it until it gets there. The feature appeared in OpenAI's Codex CLI a few weeks ago, and Claude Code just added it this week.
xAI released Grok Build, an initial beta version of the company’s agentic CLI, currently limited to SuperGrok Heavy subscribers. SuperGrok Heavy subscribers can install it with a simple curl command. Once installed, you can use plan mode to review or adjust every step before the changes are applied as clean diffs. It even handles massive tasks by delegating them to parallel subagents in their own
The SF-based AI lab just ran Codex and Claude Code autonomously on the nanoGPT speedrun for two weeks. Over 10,000 runs on idle compute, both agents beat the human baseline, with Opus setting a new record of 2,930 steps.

Google appears to be preparing "Gemini Spark" ahead of I/O, based on onboarding screens discovered inside the Gemini web app. Unlike conventional chatbots that wait for prompts, Spark is designed to run persistently in the background. It can access browsing sessions, connected apps, scheduled tasks, ongoing chats, and location data to complete actions proactively.

OpenAI is reportedly considering legal action against Apple over their 2024 ChatGPT-Siri deal, enlisting a law firm to explore options that may include a breach-of-contract notice due to the results of the “deteriorating” partnership. The two sides entered a deal in 2024 during the initial Apple Intelligence launch, giving Siri the ability to call on ChatGPT for more complex queries.
China's Unitree unveiled a transformable mecha as it preps a Shanghai IPO. The GD01 is a 2.8-metre manned mecha that shifts from bipedal to quadrupedal mode in seconds. It is built largely in-house, priced around $573,000, and runs the transformation autonomously.
Anthropic and the Gates Foundation are teaming up to commit $200 million over four years to deploy AI across global health, education, and economic mobility programs. Under the terms of the agreement, the Gates Foundation will bring grant funding, program design, and expertise, while Anthropic will provide Claude AI usage credits and support from its technical staff.
Anthropic announced a policy that will split Claude's agent usage into a monthly credit pool, restoring support for third-party agentic tools but angering power users in the process by walling them off from normal subscription limits. Starting June 15, Agent SDK and claude -p no longer draw from subscription limits, and will be solely used towards Claude Code, Cowork, and chat.
On 6/4, join Scott Galloway and Section to learn everything you need to scale from individual productivity gains to enterprise-wise AI orchestration. Learn how to scale siloed AI use into organization-wide impact and get the playbook to turn your org into a connected, augmented, AI powerhouse.

How to automate manual tasks with Codex
Open OpenAI Codex > Plugins > enable Computer Use > start a new task
Switch permissions from Default to Full access, approve the required access prompts
Then give Codex a real task to complete
Sample Prompt: “Open [app/website/file], complete [task], then summarize the results and ask before making any major changes.”
Codex can also handle repetitive desktop workflows across your apps, from organizing files and updating spreadsheets to testing websites and more
AI tools can make mistakes, please be careful with sensitive data and tasks.
