OpenAI’s Dot agent is enterprise software that can also order your dinner
OpenAI announced an agent platform called Dots earlier this week, according to The Verge. The platform is described as enterprise software that also has the capacity to order a user's dinner, with an emphasis on work.
The Verge reports that Dots feature blobby, anthropomorphic avatars and customizable names. The publication said that, like Meta Muse, the agents have these visual and naming options. In its report, The Verge named its agent Dotty McDotface.
The interface is described as similar to Muse's. Users chat with the agent in one window and follow its work in another, according to the report. The Verge characterized Dots as feeling like workplace software that happens to be able to order a burrito.
OpenAI said that in the future users will be able to have multiple Dots, but currently each user gets one, per The Verge. The full story is available at The Verge.
