OpenAI Gave AI Agents Their Own Computers at DevDay 2026. Here's Everything It Announced

What happened

OpenAI's DevDay launched dots, always-on AI agents (AI that carries out multi-step tasks rather than answering one question) with their own computers, plus a cheaper GPT-6.1 Sol and a $500 speed tier. Here's Everything It Announced OpenAI's DevDay launched dots, always-on AI agents with their own computers, plus a cheaper GPT-6.1 Sol and a $500 speed tier. OpenAI is an artificial intelligence company based in San Francisco.

In brief OpenAI launched dots, always-on agents powered by GPT-6 Astra that run on their own cloud computers, for Pro and Business Premium users in eligible markets. The company announced more than 20 launches on Tuesday in San Francisco.

Here's every announcement, explained for people who don't speak AI. The new Ultrafast tier runs up to 8x faster in Codex and up to 6x in the API (the interface one piece of software uses to talk to another), and comes bundled with the $500-a-month Pro 500 plan.

They range from always-on agents called “Dots” to a cheaper model, a confirmation of the rumored $500 tier , and a shared workspace where humans and bots edit the same documents. The event’s mood felt like cementing the idea that AI is moving from a chatbot you consult to a worker you assign things to. One that has its own computer, connects to your work apps, and keeps going while you sleep.
