GPT-5.5 has been taught to control Windows: The AI agent Codex can click and type for you

OpenAI has expanded the capabilities of its AI agent Codex by adding support for the computer use feature on Windows computers. The system can now interact with applications just like a human user: it can see the screen content, move the cursor, click buttons, and type text.

Previously, this feature was available only on Mac devices. After the update, Windows users also gained the ability to use computer control within Codex to perform various tasks.

OpenAI notes that the computer use mode allows the agent to work with programs through the graphical interface, interacting directly with windows and controls. This enables Codex to perform actions in applications without the need for manual command entry via the terminal.

The company continues to develop the agentic capabilities of its AI systems, expanding scenarios for automation on personal computers. Support for Windows marks another step in the development of Codex tools for performing everyday tasks using artificial intelligence.
