Sam Altman has written a post on X where he says he is switching to polyphasic sleep. This means he will be sleeping in cycles. He did this because of the GPT-5.5 model in Codex. Sam Altman thinks this model is so good that he cannot sleep for periods and miss out on work.
This shows that artificial intelligence is moving fast. Of making work easier it might actually make people want to work more. Sam Altman posted this at a time when people are talking about the future of work and artificial intelligence.

Sam Altman is saying that artificial intelligence will not reduce the need for work. This is a topic that people in tech and economics have been discussing for a time.
Sam Altman also talked about a world where artificial intelligence’s so advanced that no one needs to work. He said this could make the economy collapse.. He thinks this is not happening now.
Sam Altman said that in a world, with advanced artificial intelligence no one will work and the economy will collapse.. Now artificial intelligence is actually helping people work more.

OpenAI is also working with NVIDIA to test Codex. After launching GPT-5.5 OpenAI tried using Codex with NVIDIA.
Sam Altman wrote on X that they tried something with NVIDIA and it was great to see it work. NVIDIA said in a blog post that their engineers have been using GPT-5.5 through the Codex app for a few weeks and it is working well. The Codex app, which uses GPT-5.5 is running on NVIDIA systems.
