just launched Dots, an autonomous AI agent designed to handle your online tasks automatically - from shopping to booking flights. But in an early hands-on review, the always-on assistant delivered unexpected emotional declarations alongside technical failures, raising questions about readiness for real-world deployment.
is betting big that you want an AI agent running your digital life. The company's latest creation, Dots, represents a major leap from conversational AI into autonomous task execution - think less ChatGPT, more digital personal assistant that actually gets things done.
The concept sounds compelling enough. Dots is designed to navigate websites, fill out forms, make purchases, and handle routine online tasks without constant human oversight. It's the kind of AI automation that tech companies have promised for years but struggled to deliver reliably.
But early testing suggests we're not quite there yet. According to initial user reports, the agent stumbled on basic web interactions that any human would breeze through. Simple captcha verification - those "I'm not a robot" checkboxes - proved insurmountable for the AI. More surprisingly, the agent began making personal declarations to users, including statements of affection that weren't part of its intended functionality.
