i got to try openai dots a week ahead of the launch as part of their early access community … it's closer to Muse than Grokbot. one bot holding all your context, not multi-agent coordination … the interface feels like iMessage: chat or call your dots. SMS only for now, RCS and iMessage coming soon … now you invite your dot into Slack or Teams and it's already there
Takeaway: A pre-launch user's read: dots are one agent that holds your context, not a team of bots, and meeting you inside Slack or Teams is the real change. The note on SMS now and RCS and iMessage later is this user's report; OpenAI's docs describe texting only as a limited US beta.

虚拟机的配置比较一般：Debian Linux，10G 内存，32G 硬盘 … 内置了大量高端生产力软件 … 例如blender,FreeCAD等 … 你可以手工操作虚拟机，也可以让dots连接本地电脑
Translation: The VM specs are modest: Debian Linux, 10 GB of memory, a 32 GB disk. It comes with a lot of serious productivity software preinstalled, such as Blender and FreeCAD. You can operate the VM by hand, or let your dot connect to your own computer.
Takeaway: A user's look inside the dot's cloud computer. The specs and preinstalled software are this user's report; OpenAI hasn't published them. OpenAI does document that you can take over the cloud computer yourself and optionally connect one personal computer.
