OpenAI Launches Dots Agents in ChatGPT

Sep 29, 2026
OpenAI is rolling out Dots, autonomous agents powered by GPT-6 Astra, to selected ChatGPT plans.

OpenAI introduced Dots in a company post, describing them as autonomous agents that can work across connected apps. Each dot runs on its own cloud computer, uses GPT-6 Astra, and can connect to more than 4,000 apps through plugins.

Users can interact with a dot through ChatGPT, Slack, or Teams. Dots can manage multiple tasks, carry context between channels, and perform background research with read only access. Users can inspect their work, control app permissions, create rules for actions, and require approval for selected tasks.

Dots are rolling out to ChatGPT Pro and Business Premium users in eligible markets. Enterprise, Edu, and Healthcare customers can access a beta when enabled by a workspace administrator. The first dot is included with Pro and Business Premium plans at no additional cost.

OpenAI is also testing specialist dots for specific organizational roles. These agents have separate identities, credentials, and system access. The company is working with Microsoft to connect specialist dots with governance and security controls in Microsoft Agent 365.

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
