OpenAI DevDay 2026: LIVE Reaction w/ My Team
Liam Ottley and his team react live to OpenAI DevDay 2026, covering new AI agents, multiplayer workspaces, faster models, and tools aimed at replacing traditional software stacks.
The gist
-
Dots are always-on AI agents you assign roles like CFO or legal officer, and they learn your work style across apps.
-
The Ultra Fast model is 8x faster than standard but costs 6x more, which Ottley says changes how developers build and iterate.
-
Plugin extensions let developers embed full product experiences inside ChatGPT, removing the need to build and distribute standalone apps.
-
Specialist Dots come pre-trained for domains like accounting or legal, making it easier for agencies to deploy AI teams without deep customisation.

"We've started using a Slack agent called Victor in our own business recently and really trying to push that. And it just seems like a good interface and a real smooth way for non-technical founders to be able to access their AI and be able to chat to it in a multiplayer setting."

"Kylon's been ahead of a lot of this stuff. I'm filming a really cool video on how to do a one-person business with it. Victor AI and Kylon are the two main ones I've got my eye on right now, and we're trying both extensively for clients and within our own company."
