I don't want to spoil all the Codex Micro experience in the ChatGPT Desktop App because it's magical, but it's really flexible. Reassign any key, choose how the agents’ keys work, and do much more to make this keyboard yours!

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Contradicts something the audience already believes, which stops the scroll.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, energetic
Mechanisms: Pattern interrupt
Written for: People building with AI

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

I've been playing with GPT-5.3-Codex for a while, and let me tell you, this is simply the best model I've used (of course). But basically, going back to anything before is a big downgrade. It's straight to the point, fast, and also chatty with its new multi-turn feedback loop.

I've been testing the Codex official macOS app for the last couple of weeks. Yes, funny, I know! But I didn't know they were making their own until a week after I started and released Codex Monitor! It's OpenAI's take on the IDE of the future, and it's pretty good! 🧵for more
