Using his Dot's UK cloud-computer IP to sign up for social platforms — no VPN

GPT dots 好讚送了一台雲端電腦給你使用又可以不消耗額度的使用 ASTRA 我的主機在英國，馬上用他的 IP 地址申請社群平台不用 VPN 就可以接觸到歐美社群平台的群眾推薦有意把自己產品推廣到歐美的朋友現在直接叫他滑一小時的 threads 幫我蒐集歐美用戶西歡的貼文是什麼

Traditional-Chinese first-hand post (real caption preserved). @winston_huang774 says his Dot runs on a UK-hosted cloud computer: he registered for social platforms using the Dot's IP address to reach EU/US audiences without a VPN (recommends it for friends promoting products abroad), and set his Dot to browse Threads for an hour collecting which posts EU/Western users like. Submitted with media_type none: post is image-attached but the lookup returned no usable media_url (none-accepted precedent per prior waves).

Dot 'Keet' finds the cheapest parking and grades a student's assignment

🚨🚨 OpenAI acaba de presentar los Dots en el DevDay y yo llevo usándolos desde el viernes: formé parte de las pruebas de la Dev Early Access Community. Te cuento cómo ha sido. Un Dot es un agente que está siempre encendido, con su propio ordenador en la nube. Lo conectas a tu correo, tu calendario y otras herramientas, y no espera a que le escribas: revisa por su cuenta qué puedes necesitar y te propone soluciones que muchas veces solo tienes que aceptar. La conversación se parece más a WhatsApp que a un chat con ChatGPT. Le pones nombre y avatar (el mío se llama Keet), y si le respondes con un 👍 entiende que aceptas y sigue. Lo que más me ha sorprendido estos días: 1️⃣ Este viernes tengo una formación y justo después un evento, con media hora entre medias. Lo vio por un email del evento, me avisó y me preguntó cómo pensaba ir. Le dije que en coche, me buscó el parking cercano más barato y me abrió la reserva con los datos rellenos. El pago lo hice yo. 2️⃣ Se puso a revisar la práctica que había entregado un alumno de AI Expert. Para ver el vídeo le pedí que instalara Whisper en su máquina, lo transcribió, revisó el repo con el conector de GitHub y me dejó una primera revisión. Ya no parto de cero. 3️⃣ Otro alumno había preguntado algo y Nino ya le había contestado. Lo vio y me propuso ajustar mi borrador para añadir solo lo que faltaba. Además se mete en Slack como un miembro más del equipo, y puedes llamarle por voz como si fuera una llamada de teléfono. Para esas tareas pequeñas que se acaban enquistando porque nunca encuentras el momento, me está resultando útil. ¿Lo vais a probar?

Dot reviews chat and email history unprompted: finds owed reply, double-booking, suspicious login

Dot reviews chat and email history unprompted: finds owed reply, double-booking, suspicious login

OpenAI lanza "dots" dentro de ChatGPT, agentes personales siempre activos y proactivos para ayudarte. Vengo usándolo hace unos días como parte de un programa de OpenAI; la diferencia con el chat normal es que la conversación es como si fuera WhatsApp y te manda mensajes el dot cuando necesita confirmar algo con vos. Los dots tienen una computadora con Linux para usar en la nube que también vos podés usar desde la app de ChatGPT para instalar apps o loguearte en sitios. En mis primeros minutos me dio impresión. Inmediatamente tomó mi historial con ChatGPT y mi mail y sin mediar ningún mensaje ni pedido, empezó a decirme cosas revisando historial e hilos de conversación. Me encontró la solución a un bug de un cliente que todavía tenía que contestarle. Me mandó cosas como "ojo que le dijiste a X que podías a las 3 el viernes pero a las 3 le habías dicho a Y que ibas a dar el curso". En un momento me dijo "disculpá, pero para chequear, ¿fuiste vos que entraste a tu gmail desde otro dispositivo?" controlando la seguridad de mi cuenta porque le pareció "sospechoso". También se pasó a veces, sobrecomplicando las situaciones. Se lo dije, veremos si lo aprendió. Dots funciona dentro de la app mobile y la app de desktop. A cada dot le ponés un nombre y un avatar.

Dot 'Boo' triages Slack and email, catches a flight/meeting conflict

BREAKING: @OpenAI just announced Dots—always-on agents in ChatGPT I've been testing it for the last few days @every, here's a quick vibe check: What you should know: - They'll look familiar if you've used OpenClaw, Muse, Instinct, or Grok Bots. - Your Dot sits in the redesigned ChatGPT sidebar right below the “New chat” button - It has its own cloud computer that lets it work while your laptop is closed. You can text it any time or call it on the phone. Vibe check—the good When it’s working, it changes the way I use ChatGPT: I interact with Boo (my Dot’s name), and Boo orchestrates ChatGPT threads, reads my email, uses Slack, and more. It automatically filters incoming Slack requests and emails so I can quickly triage items without opening my inbox. When I was rescheduling a flight, Boo warned me that my new flight time would conflict with a meeting request from Slack that I hadn’t read. That’s the promise: an ongoing agent that filters what needs my attention and acts proactively on my behalf, in one long-running chat thread. Vibe check—the bad But the version I tested over the last few days was buggy and lacked some features I would expect, like iMessage support. I had frequent issues with permissions and dropped messages, and my Dot was unable to connect to its own in-app browser. The verdict During testing, I found myself reaching for my Dot over starting new Codex threads, so it has definitely become a habit despite the frustration. And during the tesitng period the team was rapidly fixing issues—so I'd expect most of this to be smoothed out over the coming days and weeks. Unless you love new things with rough edges, I’d recommend waiting a week or two to try it. OpenAI will have solved a lot of these paper cuts by then. If you’re already deep into Grok Bots, Muse, or Instinct, it’s probably not an immediate switch unless you’re also a big ChatGPT or Codex user.

Three power-user hacks: all-day Dot phone calls, shared-doc agent coordination, reusable skills

OpenAI launched dots today. I’ve been using them personally and professionally for weeks. My top 3 hacks to get the most out of your dot: 1. Stay on a phone call all day with your dot. Chat while you work and let your dot keep you updated on what’s happening around you and your team 2. Give your dot and your other agents, like Instinct, access to a shared Google Doc and tell them to coordinate using it 3. Have it create and improve skills for your recurring work, then set up automations to use them. Share those skills with your coworkers and be the office hero

Her Dot 'Pixel' built an AI Office dashboard from her open projects

ChatGPT finally got an agent to manage your projects. OpenAI just dropped dots. Your dot is a persistent AI agent inside ChatGPT that remembers context, keeps working between conversations, and manages ongoing projects for you. You can talk to your dot, and it opens the ChatGPT conversations it needs, runs the work, and comes back when there's a result to review or a decision it needs from you. I got to test email with mine early, and email + text messaging are being added too. So yes, you'll be able to send your agent work without even opening ChatGPT first.

최근 너무 바빠서 스레드에는 글을 못 올렸는데, 여러 프로젝트를 동시에 진행하다 보니 정신이 없었네요. DevDay에서 OpenAI dots가 나와서 제 업무에 바로 적용해보았는데요. 스스로 엄청난 체감을 했습니다. 수 십개의 Orca 워크트리, 여러 개의 코덱스 스레드 권한 요청 알람, 완료 알림이 울릴 때마다 스트레스가 되었는데 Dots가 코디네이션을 해주면서 네이버 블로그·카페 글 작성부터 인스타그램·스레드 콘텐츠 제작과 게시, 스마트스토어 상품 등록, 논문 수정과 인용 검토, 안드로이드 앱 디버깅과 개선까지 어마어마 합니다. 물론 잘못 이해한 부분을 고치고 다시 요청하는 일은 여전히 있지만 코디네이션을 상당히 잘 해주어서 당분간은 Dots로 업무를 계속 할 것 같습니다.
