OpenAI Launches Dots: New AI Agents That Work for You 24/7
AI assistants have mostly worked like this: you ask, they answer. OpenAI now wants to change that. The company has launched Dots, a new type of AI agent designed to keep working toward your goals even after you stop chatting with it. OpenAI describes Dots as “always-on” agents powered by its GPT-6 Astra model, with their own cloud computer and web browser. And yes, the idea is basically this: You give the AI a job. Then it keeps working.
