If Codex 6.0 is better than Opus 4.9, things will flip. While OpenAI has too many common enemies and trying to box them into a consumer company, they are equally enterprise focused. They need to absolutely do well with foundation model - everything else depends on that.
Well, codex is better than opus right now. I have both subscriptions, and use claude for grunt work + codex for reviews. Codex is comparable at code writing but does much better with tools, skills and ad hoc investigations, say, lauching emacs and inspecting internal emacs state on the go.
Same, I also have both subscriptions (100 Max and 200 Pro), and I am considering canceling MAX plan but would give it another month on watch.
The doomer sentiment is quite baffling to me, what trouble is OpenAI in? Definitely not after GPT 5.3. They have the model and they have the compute, people just don't realize it yet.
Might be I am in a twitter bubble, most people seem already team Codex
