Breaking from OpenAI's DevDay: the prompt-and-wait era just got a serious challenger.
Until now, ChatGPT worked like a conversation. You ask, it answers, you ask again. One step at a time, always waiting on you.
Dots flips that completely. You hand an agent a goal, walk away, and it keeps working, even while juggling other tasks in the background.
Each Dots agent runs on its own dedicated cloud computer, think of it as giving an employee their own office instead of sharing a desk. It also learns your preferences from feedback over time.
Here's the part that should make you pause: OpenAI says some work will simply appear, done, before you even ask for it. The agent anticipates the need.
Powering all this is GPT-6 Astra, a model built specifically for sustained, autonomous decision-making rather than single-shot replies.
This isn't an incremental update. It's the shift from 'a tool that answers you' to 'a colleague that acts on your behalf while you're not looking.'
The real question every business now has to answer: if your AI agent is making moves while you sleep, is it still following your intent, or has it started making the calls itself?
