# A new version of OpenAI’s Codex is powered by a new dedicated chip

**[TechCrunch](https://daily.dev/sources/tc)** · 3 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

OpenAI released GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark, a lightweight version of its agentic coding tool optimized for faster inference and real-time collaboration. The model runs on Cerebras' Wafer Scale Engine 3 chip with 4 trillion transistors, marking the first milestone in their $10 billion partnership announced last month. Spark is designed for rapid prototyping and daily productivity tasks, currently available in research preview for ChatGPT Pro users, while the full Codex handles longer, more complex tasks.
