OpenAI will make Codex, its AI programmer technology, available through an application programming interface, the company announced on its blog on Tuesday. In tandem with the announcement, OpenAI CTO Greg Brockman, Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever, and co-founder Wojciech Zaremba gave an online presentation of the capabilities of the deep learning model.

The Codex demo puts the advantages of large language models to full display, showing an impressive capacity to resolve references and write code for a variety of APIs and micro-tasks that can be frustratingly time-consuming.

OpenAI is still testing the waters with Codex. How far you can push it in programming tasks and how it will affect the software job market remain open questions. But this unexpected turn to OpenAI’s exploration of large language models seems to be the first promising application of neural networks that were meant for conversations with humans.
