People care about people. Ultimately agents have to report to someone, who is responsible for what they do. Could see more mission control style approaches in the future. Been enjoying Codex micro WAY more than I thought I would. Mental load, constant checking back, agent time wasted idling - all dramatically reduced* I feel more in control. *once Codex got it working across all my AI apps (Claude Code, Codex, chats)

at openai, many people hook their chatgpt up to slack. people really don't like when a coworker's chatgpt contacts them asking for help with a task, even when they'd be perfectly happy doing that same work if asked by that coworker. reinforces how much people care about human relationships and helping each other, and want AI to give time back — or enhance time together — rather than become a layer separating people.
