OpenAI's Answer to Hermes Agent (No Server Needed)

From the creator

OpenAI Dots explained: how to set up your own always-on AI personal assistant. 🎁 Free 7 Day Builder Challenge + my free RAMP course: https://skool.com/leonvanzyl πŸš€ Agentic Labs β€” exclusive AI coding courses, live Q&As, workshops & deep dives: https://skool.com/agentic-labs Personal AI assistants like OpenClaw and Hermes Agent are powerful, but you have to host them yourself. OpenAI Dots give you an always-on assistant inside ChatGPT, with no server to manage. I set up my own Dot, Luna, from scratch. Your Dot learns your preferences, runs scheduled tasks, researches in the background, and asks before doing anything risky. Then I peek inside Luna's own cloud computer and ask her to build a 3D version of herself in Blender. I also test whether she really phones you back when you ask her to.

The third AI workshop taught by our legendary teacher, Nick Sarafa. In one of the last events we did an asset manager raised an additional Β£25M on their fund within a space of 9 months. This is a full-day hands-on training workshop for purposeful co-creation with AI using Claude Code. Imagine having access to hundreds of billions of dollars of computing power and knowing exactly how to make it work for you through the power of super intelligence. One person did.
