OpenAI Launches Always-On Personal Assistant Dots

Available in ChatGPT Pro and above, it integrates with calendars and email to proactively manage tasks like scheduling conflicts. The product reuses functionality from Codex, reframed as a single, continuous conversation entity for intuitive use. It includes proactive research that analyzes user interactions to suggest helpful actions. While early performance shows promise, such as three-minute conflict alerts, timing remains inconsistent. Dots shares the same privacy controls as ChatGPT, allowing users to disable model training, but still accesses personal data for functionality.
