   This feels like a mass-market push.

   The cost is going to be hard for many consumers to reconcile though. Free, Go, and Plus are probably the most popular consumer-facing plans, and Dots isn't available on any of those.

   Who knows, maybe they think enterprise will pick up and run with Dots? Seems unlikely.

      Oh wow I assumed it’d be available for cheap/free mass market like Muse is. Strange.

         It's powered by Astra who will blow through your $20 plan in about 10 minutes

            it doesn't use limits and it's not on $20 plan

               Doesn’t use limits… on the first month only, actual limits will be disclosed later — most likely after they’ve found out how much people actually use this new feature.

                  The website says there are usage limits, implying from the regular pool once you actually have it "do" stuff.

                  Conversations with your dot don’t count toward your ChatGPT usage limits. When you ask your dot to start or manage tasks in Codex or ChatGPT Work, those tasks count toward your usage limits as usual.

            Sure but that’s a product decision. I don’t think a personal assistant needs to use highest tier model, and personal assist work tends to be kinda shallow, not that tile heavy.

               Yeah personally I use 3 levels of agents. My main who is either a sonnet or opus, he delegates complicated things to a project lead which is usually fable, and then he delegates everything to the dumbest possible model for the task.

                  it.

                     In my language the computer is masculine and the software feminine. I have no problem saying he/she with the full understanding that I'm talking about a machine. This sounds like a you problem.
