OpenAI bets enterprises are ready to delegate real work to autonomous agents

OpenAI says true agentic AI has finally arrived, pushing beyond the trivial capabilities of early-stage virtual assistants. This week at OpenAI Dev Day , the company introduced Dots, which CEO Sam Altman described as “remarkably capable, always-on” agents powered by GPT‑6 Astra. Dots have their own cloud computer, can be accessed in ChatGPT, Slack, or Teams, and plug into more than 4,000 apps based on human-set boundaries.
