Put your dot on call. Ali, an engineer at OpenAI, used his dot to triage an on-call incident at 3am. His dot investigated the issue and started a Codex thread, so he could steer the work from his phone in the ChatGPT app.

Great in theory but I’ve had a lot of issues with it dropping connection and waking up to see “one problem, your MacBook disconnected” so it didn’t do work.

No EU, and can't orchestrate local threads (like existing ones). It has so much friction it's just not worth using (yet)

I’m patiently waiting for you to enable multiple dots so you can finally say ‘Connect the Dots’

If you tell grokbot to read ~/.codex/ you can do the same thing but since it’s opus 5.5 driving the triage it’s 1000x better. I wish that wasn’t true. I’m paying you $500 a month. But it’s very unfortunately true.

UK 🇬🇧 Paying full Pro, still "not available in your region". Come on please bring it to is in the UK and Europe 👇
🚨 UK & EU ChatGPT Pro users are STILL waiting for Dots! 🇬🇧🇪🇺 Launched 29 Sept. Weeks later we're paying full price and still getting "not available in your region". Grok Bot works fine here. What's the hold-up? Just give us a date 🙏 @OpenAI @sama @OpenAIDevs @ChatGPT

please, i am begging you, it’s not too late to get rid of the fake phone call UI or at least let users choose to toggle that off AI has a huge trust issue in society already, you’re creating more problems for yourself by fooling users with fake interactions

This is what the future would be like

Imagine working at 3am and this ass hole is laying in bed with his"Dot" blabbing nonsense at you. 🤣

I had an issue with this exact thing. Dots will create a codex thread that’s not visible unless you ask for it. And when you ask for it, it doesn’t let you pin the thread.

New dad here, i'm up at 3am anyway. If the agent handles prod while i handle the baby shift that's honestly the dream setup
346
how many tokens is the idle loop burning at 3am

Ali automated the 3am incident all the way down to being awake at 3am.

Engineer is handsome too

handling incidents from your phone is a serious upgrade

3am incident, solved from his phone that's the future of engineering with dot on call!
19
An agent triaging at 3am and handing you a Codex thread is the on call upgrade we needed
23
I’d like to see a bot trading crypto, I’ve never seen an agent used for that

Is this ethical for the dot

I need DOTS in the EU, please.
