About this episode

Today on the AI Daily Brief, OpenAI launches GPT 5 Codex, a model designed for real-world software engineering with dynamic reasoning, long-task persistence, and powerful code review capabilities. We break down why this release cements 2025 as the year of agentic coding and what it signals for the future of autonomous dev agents. In the headlines: Google Gemini tops the App Store thanks to Nano Banana, ElevenLabs rolls out a human-in-the-loop service, and Fiverr announces major layoffs amid AI disruption.
