[AINews] Agents for Everything Else: Codex for Knowledge Work, Claude for Creative Work
OpenAI expanded Codex to non-coding work, with CUA reported 42% faster. The update connects Microsoft, Google, and Salesforce, covering docs, slides, spreadsheets, research, and planning. The key signal is GUI-agent productization, not one benchmark score.
Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: Codex moves into non-code GUI work, with a 42% speed claim and named integrations. Price, rollout scope, and reproduction details are not disclosed, so it stays below P1.
