I tried OpenAI's new AI agent at work. Cue the corporate IT headaches.
OpenAI's Dots AI agent built me a website and automated hours of work. But gnarly corporate IT questions made it feel less magical.
OpenAI unveiled its new AI agent, Dots, during the company's developer conference, with CEO Sam Altman demonstrating its capabilities. Dots created a website in five minutes, but the author couldn't share it due to corporate IT restrictions. Dots performed well on a more complex task, generating a Tumblr-style website about strange deaths within minutes.
The site contained six verified cases, including the author's wife's favorite topic, silly deaths. However, the author couldn't make the website public because the workspace didn't allow external sharing. Despite the IT limitations, Dots demonstrated its potential by logging into other workplace applications and completing tasks, such as using a newsletter publishing tool, after obtaining the necessary permissions from the employer.
