Create a Persona with ChatGPT Custom Instructions

OpenAI's chatbot, ChatGPT, has introduced a new feature called "custom instructions" that allows users to provide the bot with information about themselves that it can use to respond to their queries more efficiently.

What is this ChatGPT Custom Instructions feature?

This feature is currently in beta and is available to ChatGPT Plus subscribers worldwide except in the UK and EU.

We know that ChatGPT does not have much information about users. Therefore, this feature is designed to help users avoid having to provide the same information repeatedly whenever they have to generate something personal in a specific tone.

How can you use custom instructions?

Custom instructions can be added to ensure that the bot provides accurate recommendations based on specific needs, such as cooking for a family of six or coding in a preferred language.

These instructions act as a permanent introduction to the user's queries, eliminating the need for lengthy context and information. However, creating and interpreting these instructions can add complexity to the query, potentially leading to incorrect or fabricated information.

Custom instructions might be more dynamic and interactive. You should be telling ChatGPT about you and it should be learning about you simultaneously, and all that information should be easy to access and tweak to your liking.

How safe is it to provide personal information?

OpenAI is also looking to make sure that your custom instructions can’t override the system’s safety tools. The company says it will try to remove any personally identifying information from your instructions and your queries.

Isn't there a better alternative already?
