I’m just gonna be honest with you man. This is an absolute game changer for ChatGPT. They just released a new update in OpenAI called custom instructions, and it allows you to do a lot of things with ChatGPT that you’ve never been able to do before. So in this video, I’m going to show you guys what it is, how it works, how to install it, as well as some ways you can use it in your own ChatGPT model.
First of all, custom instructions allows you to give GPT context to any situation, as well as set restrictions to any prompt you give it. This will set some ground rules as well as provide information prior that will allow it to have a lot more specific and valuable outputs. With custom instructions, you no longer have to remind it of anything, so you can put in all the context and everything it needs to remember in your custom instructions, and it can build from there. It almost removes the need for memory in some cases, which is very powerful.
To install custom instructions, you need to have GPT-4 Plus. As of now, it’s only available for US users, but it’s going to be rolling out very soon. All you have to do is open up ChatGPT, select the bottom left, go to settings, then beta features, and select custom instructions.
There are two forms in custom instructions. The first form allows you to provide context and tell ChatGPT what role it is playing within your prompts. This gives GPT information before any output it gives you, so it can be more specific. The second form is where you can specify how you want ChatGPT to respond. This is where shot prompting comes in. Shot prompting is a concept that allows you to specify what GPT can do and must do, as well as what it cannot do and must not do. It is restrictions either/or.
With custom instructions, you can create unique and specific responses based on the context and restrictions you provide. It opens up a whole new world of possibilities for ChatGPT. You can use it for role-playing, language learning, and even business applications. The options are endless.
In conclusion, custom instructions in OpenAI’s ChatGPT is a game changer. It allows you to provide context and set restrictions, resulting in more specific and valuable outputs. It eliminates the need for memory and opens up new possibilities for various applications.
