OpenAI Turns Coding Tools Into dots, a Proactive Personal Assistant

OpenAI repackaged capabilities from its coding tools into dots, a persistent personal assistant released in late September and now available in ChatGPT’s desktop and mobile apps for Pro subscribers or higher, with plans starting at $100 a month. OpenAI enterprise product leader Alexander Embiricos said dots was designed to work proactively, while TechCrunch’s testing found its alerts useful but sometimes poorly timed. TechCrunch also reported limits on the assistant’s permission controls: users can disable the use of their conversations for model training and control its access to computer resources, but dots refuses to accept read-only access to cloud drives.
