How OpenAI turned its coding tools into dots, an always-on personal assistant

OpenAI has introduced "dots," an always-on AI personal assistant, building on the trend of deep learning models like Instinct and Meta's Muse. "dots" operates continuously in the background, offering privacy controls similar to ChatGPT, where users can disable model training and manage resource access. However, these controls are not granular, and the application can be insistent, for instance, refusing read-only access to cloud drives.
