How OpenAI turned its coding tools into dots, an always-on personal assistant
OpenAI transformed coding tools into an always-on personal assistant called dots.
Context
What happened: OpenAI released dots, an always-on personal assistant, at its developer day in late September. It is available in the ChatGPT desktop and mobile apps to Pro tier subscribers and higher.
Key numbers: Plans start at $100 a month. Codex, OpenAI's coding tool, was released at the beginning of this year.
Why it matters: Embiricos said dots repackages existing model functionality to feel intuitive, and expects its proactive timing to improve. He said the team needs to build more granular privacy controls.
