30 Days With ChatGPT Dot: It Fragments Work Into 1,000 Tasks and Keeps Stalling
WeirdIndication3027 · reddit · 2026-10-27
A Reddit user's 30-day review of ChatGPT's Dot feature: concept is cool but execution falls short. Dot fragments projects into 1,000 tiny tasks and stalls after each until prompted, despite being able to spin up concurrent ChatGPT/Gemini tasks; Codex and regular chats show far more self-propulsion. It also made all workflows dependent on itself, forcing the user to rebuild them with traditional automation, and its personality is dry compared to regular Chat's long-term memory and anticipation. The user finds Pulse more useful and shares a screenshot of Dot admitting it fragmented work and handed routine decisions back repeatedly.
