ChatGPT's New Dot vs My Old Automation: I Ran the Same Job Twice

@IvyAutomates

added

OpenAI's dots are always-on agents that work toward your goals around the clock - but I already had a scheduled automation doing the same job. So I ran the exact same job both ways and scored it round by round: setup, learning curve, flexibility, maintenance, failures, and an honest verdict on who each build is really for.

First-hand head-to-head test: automation builder Ivy ran the exact same recurring job through her existing scheduled automation and through her new Dot, then scored both round by round (setup, learning curve, flexibility, maintenance, failures) with an honest verdict. Real job executed by the Dot on camera, uploaded 2026-10-01.

Overnight sprint: 3 GitHub projects, a draft PR, 193 tests, a take-home invitation

I told my dot: “Surprise me by morning.” The rules were simple: spend nothing, leave my existing projects alone, and pull an all-nighter. By 9 AM, Buddy had: • Published 3 new GitHub projects • Opened an independently audited draft PR • Passed 193 targeted tests • Sent 3 DevRel applications and received a take-home invitation I also asked it to turn the night’s work into a Blender city. That’s the video below. Each district represents something it worked on. Partway through, the cloud workspace reset. Buddy rebuilt the lost files, reran the checks, and saved everything again. I handled sign-in and permission approvals. No extra money spent. No earnings yet, but working code, a real contribution and a hiring conversation to follow up on. @OpenAI @ChatGPTapp @OpenAIDevs, this is what a night with my dot looked like. I’m open to paid, remote DevRel and technical-demo projects. Repos and PR in the replies 👇

な！！！なんとー！！ ChatGPTに仕事を任せられる「相棒」が登場したらしい😳 新機能「dots」に 「あなたは何ができるの？」って聞いたら、 できること・使い方・設定方法を55秒の動画にしてくれた💡 噂のGPT-6.1 Solでモーショングラフィックにしてもらった。 探す時間を、創る時間へ。 こういうAIの使い方、いいよね🌙 みんななら、何を任せたい？ ※順次提供中。利用できる機能はプランや環境によって異なりようです。 以下のプロンプトでつくりました。 ”あけみん”て入ってるから気をつけてね🤣 「dotsのできること、理想の使い方、設定方法を誰もがわかるような形でモーショングラフィックにして、あけみんぽく、誰もが目を引く感じで、ガチでよろしく」

Dot 'benny' found a major bug while investigating another issue

i’m now doing all of my engineering work through my dot (benny) - it’s incredibly responsive, routes and delegates work across threads and cloud environments, and keeps track of all of my various tasks for me while proactively following up and pushing them forward. just now my dot told me that while looking into one issue it found another major bug in an adjacent function and asked if it should put out a draft PR. this is the way!
