How OpenAI Uses Codex to Change How We Build

This talk explains how OpenAI uses Codex to transform software development from manual coding to agent-driven workflows. It argues that the real bottleneck is no longer writing code, but providing agents with the right context, validation tools, and verification systems to operate effectively. The session outlines how teams can adapt their infrastructure and processes to fully leverage AI agents while maintaining speed and quality.

Dominik works on Codex at OpenAI, focusing on Developer Experience. Previously, he led Product & Design for Twilio’s Emerging Tech & Innovation team, and outside of work he loves tinkering with cocktails, food, and photography.
