ChatGPT's dot assistant gets faster replies, custom behavior instructions
thsottiaux · x · 2026-11-13
OpenAI shipped updates to its dot assistant: faster replies, less jargon, better follow-through, and support for custom instructions. Users can set behavior rules like "always talk in lowercase" or "show me a draft before sending any emails" via the thread, mobile Customize > Behavior, or the dot's menu on web/desktop, and specify which actions need manual approval. The banked reset has also been activated and will land in all accounts soon.
