New: The Logic of Violence A podcast film

Codex has officially paid for itself on the $100 plan.. A week ago I asked it to go make me $5. In one day, it found several legitimate open-source paid tasks, and picked the ones that looked real, it wrote the all the code, opened PRs, handled maintainer feedback, kept my payment details private, and helped route the payouts back to me. Most of the time after that was just waiting on maintainers to review, merge, and pay. So far, three of those jobs have paid out: $16.88, $6.80, and now $75. Total: $98.68. That’s about a $986.80/month run-rate based on the three-day window, or about $1,480/month if you count the active work as roughly two days. One of the funniest parts - in one email thread, I asked why they don’t use Codex for this kind of work, and they basically said it’s “not really good enough yet” without realizing Codex had already done the work they were paying me for. This feels like a very early glimpse of where work is going. Also a ton of people, ranging from OpenAI employees, really big influencers, and a lot of people who follow me, have asked me what my prompt is and I feel disappointed in telling you all. It's literally a poorly worded two-sentence prompt that basically just says, "Make me $5 and do what you are good at!"

Codex made me money without me doing anything.. Huge turning point for me today, I asked Codex to go off and make me $5. It went out, found a small open-source security/audit bounty path, made a legit PR, followed up with the maintainer, kept my payment details private - (without me asking), handled the GitHub proof/verification loop, and got the work merged. it spent about 22 hours working on multiple security audits. Today I received my first payment from that experiment: $16.88. That’s a $506.40/month run-rate if repeated daily. Not life-changing money yet, but it's deeply exciting to live out Sam Altman's vision for AI, where it will just go out and make money for you. It's awesome to start to see the beginning of that.
