User puts OpenAI's dot to work: it finds his device model from email and compares trade-in offers
talkaboutdesign · x · 2026-10-04
A user shared a small task he gave OpenAI's assistant dot this morning: dot located his exact device model from his emails, asked permission to use the serial number for an accurate trade-in estimate, and then compared the offer across several trade-in options. It's a concrete demo of the assistant reading personal email, integrating info across sources, and negotiating price comparisons on the user's behalf.
