Computer use 成 AI Agent 下一个主战场，Codex Desktop + Astra 体验最佳
OpenAI 的 Codex Desktop + Astra 是我目前用过最强的电脑操作 Agent，作者把为什么要用 GUI 当通用接口讲得很透，做 Agent 的都该看看。
作者认为 computer use 将成为 AI Agent 的下一个竞争焦点。现状是大量软件没有可用 API，比如在 Amazon 购物、报税和老式企业工具，连 Slack 的 API 也存在限流和不完整的问题。GUI 几乎是所有软件都暴露的通用接口，因此成为 Agent 操作电脑的可行路径。作者试过多款产品后评价 OpenAI 的 Codex Desktop + Astra 是目前体验最好的 computer use Agent，第一次让他感觉这项技术真正可用了。
Computer use will be the next major battleground for AI agents.
Ideally, the digital world should be API-first for agents. But it isn’t.
- A lot of software has no useful API at all: buying things on Amazon, filing taxes, old enterprise tools. - Even when APIs exist, they’re often slow, incomplete, and rate-limited. Slack is a good example.
GUIs are different. They’re the one universal API that almost every software already exposes.
Codex Desktop + Astra is the best computer-use agent I’ve tried so far.
It’s the first time I’ve had the feeling: wow, computer use is finally coming.
