OpenAI ships Decisions API and updates Computer Use with Dots and GPT-6.1 Sol

OpenAI has introduced the Decisions API alongside updates to its Computer Use capabilities, including the Dots personal assistant product and the GPT-6.1 Sol model. These announcements aim to provide developers with lower-latency tool calling and agents that can operate full Linux environments.

• The Decisions API enables async tool calling, mid-turn steering, WebSockets, and UltraFast inference for more responsive agents.
• Dots now include attached personal cloud computers, giving each agent its own persistent Linux virtual machine.
• GPT-6.1 Sol offers significant cost reductions, costing a fifth of Astra and a seventh for Computer Use tasks.
• Agents can now combine screenshots with accessibility data, the DOM, Playwright, and generated JavaScript to debug and recover from failures.
• The new stack supports closing the loop between writing software and testing it, potentially making agents superhuman at using software.

These changes allow developers to build on the same Computer Use infrastructure powering Codex and ChatGPT, while enabling agents to delegate complex tasks to persistent cloud environments.
