61: Josh Miller - A Good Rectangle

Miller argues the browser remains the control layer of computing as apps, files, and AI models all migrate to the cloud, validated by OpenAI's own Codex/browser convergence.

• Internet Computer thesis: Miller says desktop apps are moving to cloud servers, files to cloud storage, and frontier AI models to cloud compute—so "your computer lives off there somewhere" and gets streamed to whichever screen you're on, making the browser the natural control layer.
• OpenAI validates the bet: Miller argues OpenAI's Codex (a Mac app) and cloud computers show they've become "browser pilled" too, just wrapping a browser inside a chat interface rather than a visual GUI like Dia.
