The phone-to-desktop handoff is the piece I'd test first: when I start a task on mobile and resume on desktop, does the in-progress state sync through my account, or does the desktop re-run it from the top? And do Scheduled Tasks fire server-side when my machine is asleep, or only while the desktop app is open? That local-vs-hosted line is what decides whether I can actually lean on the automation instead of babysitting it.
Nice one, been waiting for this. Very interested to see how token usage is.
So we're officially from "AI assistant" to "AI coworker ". 😄 Now I just need it to survive Monday morning meetings too.
How does it handle permissions when it needs to access files or apps across my workspace, and can I scope what it can touch so it doesnt go off and do something I didnt ask for?
The hours-long autonomy is exciting, but I'd love a way to step in and review or redirect the agent mid-task without killing the whole run. Something like a checkpoint that pauses for my input before a big irreversible step would make me way more comfortable handing off real client work.

Who hunted ChatGPT Work?
ChatGPT Work was hunted by Adithya Shreshti. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.

💻 Desktop can work across local files, apps, and a built-in browser.
🔌 Connect tools like Slack, Google Drive, Gmail, Outlook, Teams, and Salesforce.
🌐 Turn prompts into interactive dashboards, trackers, and web apps with Sites.

Feels like a big step from "AI that answers questions" to "AI that actually helps move work forward."
Frankly not able to keep up with all new recent model updates and releases this week 👏
