Constraints

Requires ChatGPT Plus/Pro for dots. Save brand materials (brand system, past sales decks) to dot context beforehand so the agent can reference them. A Japan-local phone number is needed for print-shop account creation and pickup SMS. Text-based messaging works even with poor Wi-Fi.

What they did

On a 12-hour flight from LA to Osaka with poor Wi-Fi, Phil Hedayatnia messaged his Dot to complete a full workday: reviewing every side event, prepping every meeting, and producing a new sales-deck version customized for each upcoming IRL conversation. After landing in Japan and realizing he had forgotten business cards, he asked his Dot to handle it. The Dot found 24/7 print shops in Osaka, translated websites, created a user account, designed cards referencing the Airfoil brand system, and placed the order. It then texted him when ready, and he picked up the stack without ever opening the print-shop website or Figma.

How it went

The author reported getting 'effectively a full workday out of that flight' and successfully picking up the printed cards. He noted this felt different from his usual design-engineering or research work where he remains 'very much in the driver's seat'; with dots, he could entirely hand off tasks, which felt 'pretty liberating.' (author_report)

Worth knowing

1. Relies on pre-saved brand context: the Dot could reference the Airfoil brand system because the author had previously stored relevant materials in dot context. 2. Reliability expectation: the author rates current agent reliability as 'at least with the level of reliability of an intern'; key outputs should still be reviewed. 3. Undisclosed details: specific print-shop name/website, payment method, card specs, and price were not shared. 4. Local phone number required: needed for print-shop account registration and pickup SMS notifications in Japan.

Steps

  1. Delegate work prep during the flight

    Open your Dot in ChatGPT and describe what needs to be done for this trip in natural language. For example: which side events to review, which meetings to prep, and how to customize the sales deck for upcoming in-person conversations. Dot will execute tasks using saved context (brand materials, historical decks); confirm or supplement in chat.

  2. Delegate emergency business-card handling after landing

    When you realize you forgot business cards, tell Dot you need them made locally in Japan, referencing your brand system (e.g., Airfoil), with same-day or next-day pickup. Dot will search for 24/7 print shops, translate websites, create an account, design the cards, place the order, and notify you when ready. You only need to visit the shop and collect them. Before it places the order, have Dot show you the card design and order total for your approval.
