Kevin Ly's Dot "Dex" checks his Mac and reports project status

added Oct 11, 2026

I asked my AI where my project was up to. From my phone, it checked my connected Mac and found what was finished and what still needed building. This is OpenAI's Dot. I named mine Dex. Setup was simple: pick a name, pick a look, save. My existing account plugins loaded straight away, and Dex started suggesting things it could help with. What interests me most is having one place to ask about my Codex projects. It can work in the cloud and with files on my connected Mac, with the same Dot available on phone, desktop and web. You can call it too. My first call didn't connect, and the project lookup took a while and needed clarification. Early days, but being able to pick up my work without remembering which chat I left it in is something I'm keen to keep testing. #OpenAI #Codex #AIAgents

Kevin Ly (@thedadintheloop, a.k.a. Kevin Ly) named his OpenAI Dot "Dex". From his phone he asked Dex where a project stood; Dex checked his connected Mac and reported what was finished and what still needed building — a concrete first-hand result. He notes the lookup took a while and needed clarification, and his first voice call to Dex didn't connect, so it's an honest mixed field report. First-hand Dot project-status check.
