A new feature of ChatGPT, dubbed “Custom Instructions,” will now allow users to provide essential information about themselves and their preferred responses. By opting in to this beta feature, they can avoid the need to repeatedly provide context for each conversation.
With Custom Instructions, ChatGPT becomes more personalized and efficient, making interactions smoother and tailored to individual needs, claimed its developer OpenAI.
Educators have already found value in this feature, said the company, with many using ChatGPT to brainstorm lesson plans. By incorporating specific details and preferences into the custom instructions, teachers can receive more relevant and targeted responses from the chatbot.
As this feature launches in beta, the goal is to gather user feedback to improve the model’s understanding and application of these personalized instructions. The aim is to fine-tune the system so that it can accurately determine when and how to incorporate the provided guidelines effectively.
