The real bottleneck for enterprise AI isn't the model

Box CEO Aaron Levie posted that AI adoption is constrained less by model capability than by the absence of good evaluation frameworks at the workflow level. Public benchmarks tell you how models compare to each other in general terms. What enterprises actually need are evals designed around their specific processes, down to the individual company. His point: you can't automate a workflow you can't measure. ---

Why it matters: Your company's AI pilot probably succeeded on vibes. Someone said "this feels faster" and leadership approved the rollout. That works until you need to justify the renewal, or explain why accuracy dropped in Q3, or figure out which model change broke the accounts-payable workflow. The companies building evals now for their specific tasks are the ones who will have leverage with AI vendors in 18 months. The ones who didn't will be renegotiating blind.

OpenAI found three separate reasons your Codex quota was draining

Thibault Sottiaux, who works on Codex at OpenAI, posted a detailed follow-up to yesterday's rate limit problems. The culprits: inefficiencies when images appear in long sessions with multiple compactions, unusually high usage from the Computer History feature, and a conversation title generator that was quietly consuming more quota than intended. A fix was shipping the same day, with a separate efficiency improvement coming the following week. ---

Why it matters: Three distinct bugs, not one. That's not a fluke; it suggests quota accounting in Codex is more fragile than it should be for a product developers are building production workflows on. The good news is the transparency. The bad news is that if you hit your limit last week mid-session, none of these fixes are retroactive.

Use AI to revoke the app permissions you forgot you granted

Product builder Peter Yang shared a practical tip: go to your Google account's connected apps page in Chrome, then ask Codex or Claude Code to read the open browser tab and help you identify which apps still have access to your Google account. Yang said he disconnected several apps he'd forgotten about entirely. ---

Why it matters: Most people granted a dozen apps Google access at some point and never went back. This is a two-minute task that AI actually makes easier than doing it manually. Worth doing before your next OAuth permission ends up in a breach disclosure.
