Excerpt
The first time I delegated a real task to Codex and walked away from my computer, I came back to a diff that was better than what I would have written myself. That had not happened with any previous AI tool. It did not just return a suggestion for me to evaluate. It returned a result I could ship. That moment changed how I thought about agentic AI, and it changed what I thought a book about agentic AI needed to cover.
