Codex
ChatGPTAI has evolved into tools that are now increasingly being used to automate manual tasks. Think of the repetitive tasks that are laborious, boring, but necessary, such as answering emails, setting your calendar for appointments, etc.
Most of us know that computer work is not hard. It is just repetitive. Moving files around, clearing queues, archiving old items, clicking through the same steps again and again.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to use Codex to take over those small, annoying workflows without handing over your whole computer. You give it one clear task, watch how it handles the first few actions, then let it repeat the process once you trust the pattern. By the end, you’ll have a simple workflow you can reuse whenever you want Codex to handle a manual task inside an interface.
By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to:
Access the Codex desktop and turn on Computer Use
Create a new task
Clean up the environment before task execution
Write the detailed task prompt
Create one batch at a time
Let's dive right into it!
