Grok Bot and Dots shipped the same idea 49 days apart
A comparison of Grok Bot and OpenAI Dots: both come with their own cloud computer, sign into your tools, and only return when they need your approval.
Openai and xAi shipped the same idea 49 days apart an agent with its own cloud computer - grok bot, august 11, beta - dots, september 29, rolling out you close the laptop the agent keeps working it signs into your tools clicks and types like a person no api needed and it only comes back when it needs your approval the product is no longer the chat window which moves the real question not how smart the agent is but what it is allowed to touch while you are not watching a desk, not a chat
