Hadi vs
ChatGPT.
ChatGPT's desktop app for Mac and Windows has Chat, Work and Codex modes, and a Computer Use plugin that lets Work and Codex see an app, click and type in it. Hadi is made for one job: you say the task, by voice, text or from your phone, and it spawns an agent that does it on your computer.
