ChatGPT desktop speeds up steering for running Codex tasks
OpenAI is rolling out faster steering for Codex in the ChatGPT desktop app. A follow-up can redirect a running task sooner, and users can choose whether follow-ups steer the active run or wait for the next turn.
Why it matters: Lower-latency intervention makes long coding tasks easier to correct before they compound a bad assumption. It also makes the follow-up routing preference part of the execution contract: the same message can alter current work or become a later instruction.
