OpenAI Dots hands-on: books dinner, but works better on job tasks

OpenAI’s Dot agent is enterprise software that can also order your dinner

In the author's hands-on test, OpenAI Dots handled a website revamp and video editing, but booking and shopping tasks kept hitting security checks. Talking through design changes by voice and granting Dots access to the computer let it deploy site updates, merge videos and resize them for social media. Those jobs required handing over a lot of permissions.

Why it matters: A hands-on test shows OpenAI Dots stalling on everyday services at security checks while running smoother on authorized site and video work.
