OpenAI Introduces Dots: Always-On Agents Powered by GPT-6 Astra

Key Info

OpenAI introduced dots, always-on agents powered by GPT-6 Astra that handle a range of tasks autonomously while letting users set explicit boundaries on what the agent can do, when it must ask first, and what it may never do.

Highlights

• Dots run on their own cloud computer, so connecting personal apps is optional.
• Users choose which apps to connect and define permission boundaries for autonomous actions.
• Available in ChatGPT on web, mobile, and desktop for Pro, Business Premium, and Enterprise users in eligible markets.
• Setup happens in the ChatGPT desktop app or browser: create a dot, connect apps, and let it introduce itself.
