At OpenAI’s DevDay event on Tuesday, the company announced the launch of Dots, a new personal agentic assistant powered by GPT-6 Astra. The company describes Dots as “remarkably capable, always-on agents built to handle everything.” Unlike Codex or ChatGPT, Dots are meant to operate independent of any specific hardware or interface, pursuing user-defined goals continuously in the background with minimal oversight. “Today, you can start with your primary dot, give it a name, and make it your own,” OpenAI said in its announcement post. “Over time, we envision teams of Dots working together on your behalf.” Dots will be available starting Tuesday in ChatGPT, for Pro and Business Premium users in eligible markets. Users can launch Dots from Codex or ChatGPT.
