I thought i would give this AI assisted coding another go, so have subscribed to ChatGPT to try out this new codex, but it just seems soooooo slooooow.
I just don't see how this can be considered productive - I am waiting 20 minutes staring at it "thinking" while it does trivial tasks on a virtually bare repo. I guess for async agents its not such a big deal if they are slow as molasses, as you can run dozens of them, but you need a structured codebase for that - and i am already hours in and haven't even gotten a skeleton.
I have read through all the docs, watched the video. It would be so much quicker just to write this code myself. What am I doing wrong? Is it just super slow because they are over capacity or is this just the current state of the art?
