Alex Volkov Flags Codex Voice Mode Sound Detection

Alex Volkov, an AI podcaster and evangelist known for the ThursdAI podcast, posted on X that a new voice mode in Codex detects sniffing, tongue clicks, coughs, and gulps. He called the feature crazy witchcraft and tagged OpenAI. The post includes a screenshot of a single purple message bubble on a dark background showing the transcribed sounds in white text. Volkov added that he is here for it.
