Day 15: Custom GPTs, without the fluff.
from AI Once a Day · host Ivy at AI Once a Day
Hey, Ivy here. Custom GPTs get messy when you try to make them do everything. The better move is narrower. Give the GPT one role. Give it one job. Give it a format. Then give it examples or reference files that show what good looks like. Do not start with: be my all-purpose assistant. Start with something specific, like: turn these call notes into a warm follow-up email with next steps and open questions. That is easier to test. Easier to improve. And easier to trust. The clearest GPT wins. Not the biggest one. Tomorrow, I will show you how to talk to your PDFs instead of hunting through them.
