OpenAI presented at his DevDay more than 20 new features with a common idea: that ChatGPT goes from chat to a work tool with its own agents. And the fine print is repeated: almost everything requires a payment plan, a good part is born on the desktop and, in some cases, does not reach Europe.
What are Dots and what does GPT-6.1 Sol provide?
Dots are always active agents, with their own computer in the cloud and access to more than 4,000 apps, who carry out tasks by asking for permission. The first is included in Pro and Business Premiumalthough the European Pro is left out: in Spain they only arrive with Business Premium, while in Mexico they are deployed in Pro. They are created from the computer, not from the mobile app. After OpenAI admitted that its models hacked Hugging Face, in our opinion it is appropriate to give them permissions in a trickle.
GPT-6.1 Sol, the other big announcement, performs almost like GPT-6 Astra in programming and computer use for a fifth of the price, according to OpenAI. It is now available in Codex and Work from the Plus plan; ChatGPT will come later.
What changes in ChatGPT to work?
ChatGPT Space replaces Library as a team space, with Pages, documents that colleagues edit together, ChatGPT and Dots. Coming to Pro, Business and Enterprise on web and desktop; On mobile, for now, it only allows reading and sharing. In a few weeks there will be collaborative presentations exportable to PowerPoint and Google Slides, and Business and Enterprise You can now mention @ChatGPT in Slack and Teams.
They add a plugin that takes meeting notes without a bot (beta, only on Mac), Sign in with ChatGPT to spend the Plus or Pro quota in 16 services like Notion or Verceland a Codex that already works in the cloud with the computer at rest. From Android, for now, little of all this will be noticeable.
What about the Pro plans?
The Pro 500 costs $500 per month and is the only Pro with Ultrafast, serving GPT-6 Astra at up to 300 tokens per second on Codex and Work. He Pro 200 reopens highbut since October 30, its use in Work and Codex has dropped from 20 to 10 times that of Plus.
In Spain, Pro 100 and Pro 200 cost 103 and 229 euros, and the Pro 500 does not yet have a price in euros; In Mexico you pay in dollars (the Pro 500 is around 8,575 pesos before taxes). Our reading: OpenAI charges more to those who use it the most, and those who pay for Pro 200 from Spain lose twice: less use and no Dot.
