He benchmarked his Dot on five everyday tasks — 22/24 objectives met

New AI assistants seem to launch every day. I feel like the pitch from many well-funded companies is to hand over control and let an assistant handle everything. I’m a cofounder of Retriever AI (rtrvr), and I strongly believe we should control our AI choices and decide what work to offload. We analyzed 50,000 production user workflows from rtrvr and built an AI Assistant Benchmark with a mock website for running the tests. The tasks cover personal life, work and security guardrails. You can paste the prompts into your assistant of choice and compare accuracy, cost and time taken. The rtrvr extension can also run the tests autonomously. I tested OpenAI dots and Retriever AI with the same prompts and data: claim a flight credit, apply for a job, find creators, reconcile invoices and protect private inbox details. On invoice reconciliation, rtrvr initially got the answer format wrong, then used the page state to self-heal and finish. Dots stopped with two requirements unmet despite knowing the failure. Across these five tasks, rtrvr met 24/24 objectives and dots met 22/24. It's a small sample, and we're adding more tasks. What tasks have you found agents struggle with? Would this help you decide which assistant to use and what to delegate?

My Dot reconciled the budget file's remittance section against Wise records

My Dot reconciled the budget file's remittance section against Wise records

Here’s me giving my Dot the kind of direction a human coworker might get: “The answer should be somewhere in that spreadsheet.” 🤖😅 I pointed it toward the budget file and its remittance section, but didn’t tell it how to solve the problem. The AI found the relevant data, checked the fees against the Wise records, reconciled the discrepancy, and came back with the answer. Meanwhile, it was also finishing a separate calendar assignment I’d given it earlier. What I especially liked was that, after finding the missing context, it acknowledged that its earlier assumption had been wrong. Increasingly, this feels less like giving a computer instructions and more like giving a capable coworker a clue and letting them take it from there. 🤖🧐

Told my Codex Dot to beat a browser RPG — it reached the ending

Told my Codex Dot to beat a browser RPG — it reached the ending

Codex Dots을 이용해서 스레드에 돌아다니는 RPG게임을 깨보라고 시켰다. https://playmanshin.github.io/manshin-rpg/ 라는 게임이였고 @gonewiththebaron 님이 만든거였는데. Dots는 엔딩을 보았다. 여기까진 내가 쓴거고 아래는 Dots이쓴 스레드를 복붙한 내용인데 일단 너무 인간적으로 플레이해서 놀랐다 뭐랄까 인간이 게임이란걸 처음 접하고 깨기위해서 했던 노력들이 이런거 아니었나 싶은 플레이라... 좀 무섭기도 하다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Gave his Dot a real job

Gave his Dot a real job

OpenAI Just Launched Dots. Here's The Truth About It. Get my exact OpenAI Dots setup, safety rules, and copy-paste prompts here: https://sharbel.com/s/8qcs3 OpenAI just launched Dots, an always-on AI agent inside ChatGPT that keeps working when you go offline, messages you first, and uses its own cloud computer to complete ongoing tasks. I got access, created my first Dot, connected it to my tools, and gave it a real job. In this video, I show you how the setup works, what OpenAI genuinely got right, where Dots falls apart, and how it compares with Meta Muse, Grok Bot, Hermes Agent, and OpenClaw. Dots runs on GPT-6 Astra, connects to thousands of apps, learns from your corrections, and can work across ChatGPT, Slack, Teams, and voice calls. Its proactive behavior is the biggest difference. It reads the information you give it access to, identifies potential tasks, and starts surfacing useful work without waiting for another prompt. OpenAI also built in sensible guardrails. Background work is read-only by default, so your Dot can research, draft, and plan, but it needs approval before sending messages, posting publicly, spending money, or taking other risky actions. But there are real limitations. Access is restricted by region and plan, completed tasks consume your usage allowance, and the launch arrived alongside major changes to OpenAI’s paid plans. Dots is also entering a crowded market where free and open-source alternatives already offer many of the same capabilitie
