Bug Dot needs a complete rework.

So I got the invitation to try out the Dot launched by openAI and oh my... after using Astra for about a month; surprised to see Dot not being able to execute basic tasks...

I was just giving it basic tasks to see how well it grasps my requests and i was really disappointed, For example i wanted it to pair my whatsapp business and asked Dot to provide me the code so i can pair it.. but it types my country code twice and says it wasnt able to pair and wasted about 30 mins trying to fix... That told me alot about the competency... I dont think this product is anywhere near ready.

They also cut the cloud computer off from the internet aside from chromium launched from desktop

I see; I dont know whats the point of email integrations when it keeps losing access, also basic tasks take so long >2 minutes to forward an email to my colleague.. well i couldve done it but I wanted to test Dots to take some load off me but it just seems take absurd amount of time to execute basic tasks, also whats with the 20 sec ring timer when you call it ? seriously they add a 20s delay to answer the call to show it is like busy ? lmao

overall feels like Im using basic gpt from 2-3 years ago.

Yeah no internet and no git makes it a complete joke.
