Nvidia Corp. don deploy OpenAI im Codex coding agent across im global workforce, with CEO Jensen Huang dey hail di move as milestone for “di age of AI.” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman say early company-wide testing “was awesome.”
Di rollout follow internal pilot where employees report faster debugging cycles and accelerated software development. On Thursday, Altman share Huang internal email on X, highlighting early success. “We tried a new thing with NVIDIA to roll out Codex across a whole company and it was awesome to see it work,” Altman write, adding, “Let us know if you’d like to do it at your company!”
For company-wide note, Huang encourage employees to adopt Codex broadly, calling AI agents “teammates” wey enhance productivity across roles, not just software engineering. “Chatbots answer questions. Agents do work,” Huang write for di email. “Let’s jump to lightspeed. Welcome to the age of AI.” He also praise OpenAI for advancing generative AI, crediting GPT-style models with enabling reasoning, planning, and tool use for enterprise settings.
According to Nvidia, Codex run on dem GB200 NVL72 systems and deliver major efficiency improvements, including faster token processing and lower inference costs. Di company say developers dey see shorter debugging cycles and faster feature deployment, with some tasks dropping from days to hours.
For March, Huang suggest say di company latest $30 billion investment for OpenAI fit be im final major private funding round before di AI startup go public. Huang say he no expect Nvidia to pursue $100 billion investment for OpenAI, a figure wey previously discuss for broader infrastructure partnership proposal for September. He attribute di shift to OpenAI expected initial public offering. Huang also indicate say Nvidia $10 billion investment for rival AI firm Anthropic likely to be im last as well. Nvidia don previously announce plans to invest for Anthropic alongside Microsoft for November 2025.
Meanwhile, OpenAI also dey introduce workspace agents for ChatGPT for Business, Enterprise, and education users, enabling teams to build and share AI agents wey dey perform tasks across tools like Slack and Gmail. Dese agents fit gather context, follow workflows, request approvals, and improve over time, representing evolution of earlier custom GPTs.
For di competition side, Anthropic don launch Claude Design, experimental tool wey enable users to create visual assets like prototypes, presentations, and one-pagers through natural language prompts. Outputs fit export or integrate into platforms like Canva for further editing.
Google too dey update Workspace with new AI-driven capabilities wey dey automate everyday tasks across Docs, Sheets, Gmail, and more. New system wey dem call Workspace Intelligence connect data across tools to enable context-aware assistance, while Gemini fit build spreadsheets, organize unstructured data, and generate or refine written content.
Microsoft dey introduce Agent Mode across Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, enabling AI to directly execute multi-step tasks within documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Di feature build on Copilot by allowing more autonomous actions, like editing content, updating data, and maintaining formatting, while showing each step for real time.
