🎬 88 seconds later, it started working on its own | 1/5
Originally, I just wanted to test Codex.
As a result, from installation complete to the first Agent starting work, it only took 88 seconds.
Organizing files, scraping web pages, writing code, running scripts—all running locally.
🚀 For the first time, I felt that AI Agents have started entering ordinary people’s computers. https://t.co/BPuTMtJ4o0
From completion of installing Codex + the local model to the first Agent starting to work (organizing files, scraping web pages, writing code, running scripts), the entire process took only 88 seconds, and it ran completely offline locally. Key takeaway: AI Agents are truly starting to enter ordinary people’s computers.
