danielmac8, part of OpenAI's Dev Early Access community, shares hands-on experience with 'dots', the new proactive personal agent — his one-word summary: proactivity.
- Example: dot proactively spotted an invoice he needed to send for freelance writing, pulled details from the email thread, drafted it, and sent the PDF after approval
- Next he plans to give his dot a set of ideal states (founding a business, growing subscriptions, nurturing relationships) and let it work toward them 24/7
- He frames it as real-world proof of agents shifting from reactive to proactive
