OpenAI has introduced AI generated pets in its Codex app to make coding more interactive and engaging. These animated companions act as a floating overlay that shows what Codex is working on, alerts users when tasks are complete, and signals when input is needed.
They do not write code but help users track progress without switching apps, improving workflow visibility.
Users can summon pets using commands, choose from built in options, or create custom versions with AI, adding a personal touch to development environments.
