OpenAI Codex can now edit websites on its own
2026.06.17What's up, Carat crew here. 🙂 Today: AI built a full 6-minute drama, Codex started editing websites on its own, and 36 million students are studying with AI voices.
🔥 AI just built a full 6-minute TV drama
Video AI company Pika says it built a 6-minute TV pilot end to end inside one platform. The experiment, called Director's Suite, runs on an agent that understands and handles every part of a video project.
You describe a scene in words, and the agent handles everything from casting to footage. A short drama, made start to finish by AI.
📌 3 things happening today
1️⃣ Codex can now run your browser on its own?
OpenAI's coding agent Codex can now control Chrome directly. Hooked up to Chrome DevTools, a demo shows it opening a website, inspecting it, and editing it. In the demo, Codex changed the text color and wording on the ChatGPT page itself. It's still a very early build for now.
2️⃣ 36 million students are studying with AI voices
India's education service PhysicsWallah added ElevenLabs' AI voice to its AI doubt-solving tool. The call came after data showed 52% of students learn better by listening than by reading. Over 36 million students in India alone prep for exams with this tool, and now a text-only tool has a voice.
You can make AI voices on Carat too. 👉 Create it on Carat
3️⃣ A cat that topped every AI benchmark
One fake AI model flipped X this week. A fake leaderboard showing a fat white cat named 'Le Chaton Fat' topping every AI benchmark spread around, and it looked convincing enough that some people thought it was a real new model.
It's a parody playing on the name of Mistral's chatbot Le Chat (the cat). Mistral leaned into the joke and added the cat as a mascot in its Vibe app: a laid-back cat in chat mode, and a tie-wearing one in work mode.
🧪 Today's prompt
Turn one photo into an ID photo
A prompt wa_zin_ shared on X. Drop in one everyday photo and it turns you into a clean ID photo: a suit, a white background, even studio lighting.
Here's what we made on Carat with ChatGPT Image 2 Medium. The prompt works for any gender, so one everyday photo becomes a clean, straight-on ID photo like this.
Transform my photo with ChatGPT Image 2 Medium using the prompt below.
Prompt:
A professional ID photo of a young person with a neat hairstyle, wearing a black suit jacket over a simple white top (a crew-neck shirt or a dress shirt with the top button undone). Plain white background, bright and even studio lighting, clean and clear skin tone, high resolution, frontal view looking straight at the camera, neutral expression with a slight friendly look. Output a vertical 3:4 portrait ID photo (taller than wide), with the head and shoulders centered in the frame.
