Skills are recipe cards for your AI. Reusable workflows that teach Gemini how to execute a task the same way every time.

Some are just a set of instructions. Others pack in reference material and tools so the AI can actually get the job done, not just describe it.

They're now live in both Gemini Chat (under Settings) and Gemini Spark, their more agentic platform. From there you can build one through a guided interview, write it manually, or upload a skill file from Claude or ChatGPT.

Hyperframes vs. Remotion. One prompt. One map skill.

Remotion has a built-in skill called Remotion Maps. Feed it a prompt describing the route, the map style, and how the camera should move, and it renders a cinematic animation that follows the actual highways with smooth camera choreography.

Can Hyperframes match it?

DOTS turns AI into your project assistant. Ask it to create a workspace for any project, and it instantly generates notes, checklists, and sub-pages, all contextualized to what it knows about you.

One prompt: "create a new sub page in the scratch pad for a video I'm making about the launch of dots." Seconds later it had the page built out with notes, checklists, and links back to past chats on the topic.

If you've used Notion, Pages feels familiar, except your dot fills it in for you.

DOTS can run recurring tasks, triggers, and reminders. Example: "Tomorrow is OpenAI's Dev Day. Review the main keynote. As soon as it's finished, give me a summary of everything they launched."

Scheduled tasks can fire from a form entry, an incoming email, a weekly cadence, or a one-off in the future, all routed straight to your dot.

Call DOTS on voice mode. Describe what you're hunting for. It browses the web, finds matching products, and sends the links straight to your chat while you're still on the call.

Test run: asked for magnetic wooden cairns like an art piece I'd seen. Mid-call it came back with hand-shaped walnut stones with hidden magnets, plus sapele and mixed wood sets, and dropped the four closest links into the thread.

Hands-free product research that actually finishes the task before you hang up.

Summary:
Gemini has finally added Skills, which are one of the most important features for AI. I have skills for every task I do regularly with AI, they make it much more streamlined and powerful. I cover how they work, the three main ways to create them, and how to chain multiple skills together.

One prompt. Three intros. A thumbnail. And motion graphics that sync perfectly to your script, all delivered at once. Dots just did your entire content setup.

The wild part: Dots delegated across Work and Codex on its own, prompting each skill with way more detail than you'd bother typing yourself.

-intro skill wrote 3 options in Work, picked the best
-Codex skill built motion graphics timed to the script
-thumbnail skill ran in a separate chat in parallel

One agent orchestrating multiple threads, multiple skills, one output.

Stop juggling ten different chats and work sessions. Meet DOTS, the always-on agent that orchestrates your entire ChatGPT from one central place.

It has access to your memories, connected tools, skills, and scheduled tasks. It can spin up new chats, work sessions, or codex sessions, even on your computer while it's on.

Plus it gets its own persistent cloud computer, and the chat follows you between phone and desktop. Rolling out on Pro and Enterprise first.

Can Humanizer make AI writing sound human?

You know the pattern: "it's not this, it's that." The "welcome to system one models" closer. That vague "essay vs. decision" setup. Cloud's default tweets are covered in it.

Install the Humanizer skill, run your draft through it, and it reworks the slop lines into something that actually sounds like a person wrote it. Especially useful on longer writing than tweets.

Summary:
Open AI launched a new always on, proactive, personal assistant AI agent called Dots. I had early access and have been testing it for a few days so I cover what it is, how it works, and what all it's capable of.

Your AI designs look generic? Impeccable fixes that with 24 commands that amplify boring layouts, inject real motion, and kill the AI tells your users already spot.

Watch one "bolder" command turn a flat Utah National Parks site into something with stronger typography, deep forest green sections, and larger imagery. Then "delight" adds a stamp-press animation when you check off a park. Then "critique" runs a full design + responsiveness review with fixes you can actually ship.

The easiest way I've found to level up AI-generated designs.
