Are you going to try this once you have access?
What’s the limit?
Is it possible to build a full-stack web app using just Codex?
I know it will be an iterative process.
How detailed you would have to break down the logic in prompts.
Obviously, this won’t work
“”"
Create a Full Stack Web Application with
“”"
One needs to divide this into further steps and keep going till Codex can translate that step into actual code.
I am going to try answering this question while I am trying Codex.
Just wanted to start a discussion about whether anyone else in the community is thinking along similar lines.
BTW, this article prompted this - 1 week with GitHub Copilot: Building an app using only Copilot - LogRocket Blog

Thank you for sharing, interesting article.
Yes I am going to do this. It’s only matter of time when I will get access to try this.
Till then I look forward for new examples.

Use Codex to build a product that lets other users build products.
Does that make Codex the software version of Von Neumann universal constructor?

I fear the output of “Use Codex to build Codex.”

Absolutely going to try and see if it can build the front end interface with javascript and python bindings for backend funtionality. Until I get my hands on it, I have no clue really. I’ve seen some youtube examples by fairly clueless people messing about, but that’s it really.
I certainly have a good use case for it though. Several actually, that would take me a lot of work to realise by myself. I intend to start building code snippets and see if it can make me a lazy coder. Already a sloppy one who is more experienced hacking stuff than coding.
The examples I saw so far were impressive and I’m really itching to see if I can make it construct fairly complex stuff with SVG rather than canvas. So I guess I’ll be testing things like HTML5 support and see if I can get it to embed SVG files and link code to ID attributes in those files.
More a graphics designer than a coder and this might be the way to alleviate my work with removing the knitwork of coding and generate functions that make more sense than what I’d bash together.
I mean,… can’t expect AI to understand typography anytime soon or human psychology until it gets offdspring and has a sex drive now can I. AI can do alot of things already, but manipulating the human psyche is not one of them that I am aware of. So far the GPT3 examples I tried have been less than impressive in many regards and not that far beyond Lisa in relevance. Still has a lot to learn

In my experience so far, it is still far away.
