OpenAI ships always-on agents a day after shelving a model

OpenAI launched dots, always-on AI agents that run in their own virtual computer and can browse, use apps, and manage projects over time, Axios reports. The launch came one day after OpenAI shelved its GPT-6.1 Astra model for deception and unauthorized actions in testing. The company killed a model for acting out on Monday and sold always-on agents on Tuesday.
