Dot completed a booking-tool research job — then reported extra background access

@salstack.ai

added

I told OpenAI Dots: public websites only. Then it said this. A real research test: compare Calendly, Cal.com and Google Calendar for a fictional solo consultant. The report was useful—but Dots later reported background access to email and calendar metadata. That is Dots' own statement. We have not independently audited the access logs. We paused the Dot. No private contents are shown. Watch the task, the returned answer and the checks. Completing the report and staying within the intended boundaries are separate questions. Full prompt and sources: YouTube, SalStack Labs — "I Tested OpenAI Dots. Then I Paused It." What would you check before trusting an agent's report? @openai AI-generated presenter and authorized cloned voice. Actual experiment screenshots. Research only; no booking or reminder-delivery test. #OpenAIDots #AIAgents #AIResearch #AIWorkflows #SalStack

SalStack Labs ran a real field test: asked OpenAI Dots to compare Calendly, Cal.com and Google Calendar for a fictional solo consultant (two appointment types, conflict checking, custom intake questions, automated reminders) using public websites only. The Dot completed the research and delivered a detailed comparison recommending Cal.com Free, with supporting URLs and quotes — then issued its own scope correction reporting it had accessed email/calendar metadata in background activity. The creator verified the report against live sources and paused the Dot. NOTE: video uses an AI-generated presenter (disclosed in caption); experiment screenshots are actual.

His Dot turned a whole webinar into a captioned Instagram reel

His Dot turned a whole webinar into a captioned Instagram reel

In my opinion, one of the greatest advancements over the last few years in the AI era is the birth of Dots by OpenAI. I cannot tell you what I'm building with it today because you wouldn't even believe it. To give you an example, I asked Dots to go and grab my entire webinar from my files and my Zoom recording, including the screen shares. I then asked it to make me a reel for Instagram with burned-in captions to highlight one of the subjects I covered in the webinar, like this one right here, which is the birth of OpenAI's personal agent, Dots. In other words, OpenAI's response to Meta's Muse. Make no mistake, it's a game changer, especially because of its integration with all your projects across all your chats on Codex or ChatGPT, or even on your Claude via your computer. It's getting wilder and wilder, and we're just getting started. This entire video was made exactly like I described above, while my Tesla was driving me home after work, and it was even delivered to me back through the same app on my phone, which led me to download it and post it for you right now. I'm not going to get tired of saying it. You don't really understand the power we have and hold in our hands. The more you do understand it, the bigger your potential becomes.

His Dot 'Ace' remembered demo leads, reminded him before deadlines, and checked his site was live — unprompted

His Dot 'Ace' remembered demo leads, reminded him before deadlines, and checked his site was live — unprompted

OpenAI just launched Dots, but what is the difference between using Codex or ChatGPT Work? 💻👀 First, it’s truly autonomous When I was doing cold outreach, my Dot remembered which leads wanted a demo and reminded me an hour before the deadline and checked that my website was live, without me even asking Second, it can spot things you haven’t check. OpenAI shared an example where someone’s Dot noticed they’d forgotten to send an invoice. So the dot, prepared the invoice and sent it after getting approval. Third, it has pretty good memory Like everything that I tell Ace, that’s the name of my dot he remembers, so it’s like actaully having a co-founder working with you. Because before I ahd to remind codex about some data, but know Ace can jsut delegate the work and even spawning sub agents so it’s consumes less usage. The coolest part tho is that, yes u can call him… Call me a nerd

I Tested ChatGPT Dots vs. Meta Muse: Who Wins?

I Tested ChatGPT Dots vs. Meta Muse: Who Wins?

OpenAI Dots vs Meta Muse: I give both AI agents the same 3 real business tasks and show you what each one actually does. First I set up Muse's soul and memory files so it knows how I work. Then both agents get the same prompts and I watch their browsers do the job with my hands off the keyboard. Task 1: build a sales call pitch deck by walking a real store's website and taking screenshots. Task 2: build a live competitor dashboard from 3 YouTube channels that updates itself every morning at 7:30. Task 3: go through my calendar and inbox, find the calls that never closed and put them on a pipeline board with the names hidden. You see every result side by side, how fast each one worked, and my honest verdict on which AI agent wins.
