- A leak suggests OpenAI's upcoming always-on assistant will be named "o", with its reference briefly appearing on the ChatGPT upgrade screen for some users.
- Internal config lists "o" as a display name and "-o" as an email suffix, hinting the assistant will support email handling.
- The rumored "Aeon" is reportedly the internal name for the existing custom Agents implementation for ChatGPT Workspace accounts, which a consumer-facing "o" may build upon.
- OpenAI hosts DevDay next week, where more details are likely; the author notes Meta's Muse assistant has set a high bar.
