📢 Exciting News: Introducing Custom Instructions with ChatGPT! 📢

    

Hey techies! 

Exciting news! ChatGPT has a new update called "Custom Instructions" that will level up your conversations. No more starting from scratch! Share your preferences, and ChatGPT will remember them for each response, making interactions personalized and efficient. Available in beta for Plus plan subscribers now and rolling out to all users soon. Get ready for an amazing experience! 🚀😊

Wondering How to Set Custom Instructions? 

Firstly, a Beta Plus subscription for ChatGPT is needed. 

1.) Click on the settings icon and search for the “Custom Instruction” option in the menu item.

2.) If you can't find the option, you'll need to enable it from the settings. Click on 'Settings & Beta,' and a popup will open. Click on 'Beta features' and enable the 'Custom Instruction' option.

Once you've set up the Custom Instruction, let's define the instructions for ChatGPT and observe how the responses change.

3.) To customize ChatGPT, go to 'Custom Instruction' in the menu. Read the instructions, click 'Next.' A popup with two input boxes appears one for personalizing the response and another for defining how you want to receive it. Read the popup instructions for what to enter in each box. Enjoy the personalized experience! 🚀😊 

Here are some responses I've recorded without setting up Custom Instructions. Let's look. 

Request: The developer to get some crud operation-related information and program

The above response is from a developer working with .NET Technology, who might not have enough knowledge or skills to understand the code block directly. So, here we need to add additional information like 'I would like the response code blocks to be in .NET Technology, with each line or block explained in comments.'

Request: Foodie to know the food list or item S/He can eat in lunch.

The above response is for someone who's looking for lunch suggestions from ChatGPT. They'd like to know what they can eat, complete with calorie information and the ingredients required to make the meal, and it should be vegetarian. So, this information needs to be passed every time we ask for food-related suggestions. Now, let's set up some Custom Instructions for ChatGPT and see how the responses change.

In the above instructions, you'll find the details I've mentioned are based on the above responses. These details helped me realize that I need to input this information every time I want a desired response from ChatGPT, whether I'm asking as a programmer or a food lover.

Request: The developer to get some crud operation-related information and program.

From the above response, we can verify that ChatGPT correctly considered the custom instructions we provided. It used .NET for the code snippets and included single-line explanations for each function or block. 

Request: Foodie to know the food list or item S/He can eat in lunch.

The above response clearly adheres to the instructions about showing the calories, listing the food ingredients, and suggesting only vegetarian lunch options.

In both above responses, you can check that the Custom Instruction feature is turned on and functioning as expected.

I hope this information will be helpful for you in some way and can make the experience with ChatGPT easier.

Thanks & Regards,
