[Summary]: The agent running on a remote machine can authenticate using your local SSH credentials, enabling it to push to private repos on GitHub. Proof: github.com/openai/codex/pull/28131#discussion_r3410013180. Comments: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50422628.

Points: 29 # Comments: 9 Of course it does. That's what the codex <> chat merge is actually doing. But codex <> chat merge is what they're giving as the "real reason" for what actually is raising prices (a LOT, I might add) for all the subscriptions.

Nobody wants it (certainly not applied globally to everything like it is), but they're still going to do it. Given Sam Altman's vision for Open AI pricing, this cannot be stopped. Btw: Instead of subscription or per-token cost, as soon as you type something in, Chat GPT would give you a cost for that specific answer and you'd agree or not.

The author feels this perspective overlooks normal (non-millionaire) users more than even Google's leadership. Can I just say "I think Google is going to win from Altman" despite Open AI having superior technology?.
