Anyone knows how the memory works for Dots? Anything else than markdown files + note taking you think?

That gets you a long way actually. This actually sounds a bit like a tamed version of openclaw. A self learning and adapting always on agent that takes care of stuff for you. And of course they do employ Peter Steinberger who created OpenClaw since early this year.

So, I expect it might be borrowing some ideas from that. Probably/hopefully not any of the code.

I ran an OpenClaw instance for a few months on a vm. It was fun but also very flaky. These days I already have chatgpt connected to gmail and drive, which is very useful for me and saving me lots of time already. I have some scheduled tasks running as well. This would just be the next step up from that. I'll probably give this a try when they roll it out in Germany.

It will be interesting to see if Anthropic will launch a competing feature as well. Also, there is now growing competition from Google, MS, Meta, and Apple that are each doing their own versions of AI Agents.
