AI AgentsOpenAI unveiled Dots, always-on AI agents that live inside ChatGPT, connect to a user's apps and work on multistep goals in the background while learning preferences over time. Coverage from Technology Org, SiliconANGLE, The Verge and Wired frames it as OpenAI's answer to Meta's Muse.

For businesses that means one thing: be the clean, citable, trustworthy source the good agents pick, and don't leave doors open for the bad ones. Caveat: capability in a headline is not capability in your workflow, and a pause report is not a detailed disclosure, so ask who has confirmed the scope.
