This episode is all about custom GPTs: What they are, what they can do, and how to “build” one. If you’ve ever wished you could clone yourself, this is basically how you do it. In this episode I share how I created my own ChatGP-TA for the Instagram Intensive, the files and instructions I used to make it sound like me, and the simple steps you can take to “clone yourself” without writing a single line of code. Along the way we talk vectors, transformers, input quality, and how to set capabilities so your Custom GPT does exactly what you want. Main Topics Covered GPT definition refresher: generative, pretrained, transformer How transformers work: tokens, vectors, and context Definition of a Custom GPT and why it’s like “cloning yourself” Example: building a Custom GPT (ChatGP-TA) for the Instagram Intensive Files and instructions used to train it (outlines, sales page, emails) Using Projects vs the GPT Builder (create + configure modes) Importance of context and instructions for best outputs Capabilities and settings (internet access, file uploads, toggles) Use cases and limitations of custom GPTs How Kate uses ChatGPT vs Claude Links & Resources for This Episode Ep. 1: What You Actually Need to Know About ChatGPT GPTs FAQ in the Open AI Help Center Open AI’s GPT Builder Ep. 6: An Intro to Using ChatGPT to Create Content Subscribe to the ChatGPT Curious Newsletter: The Curious Companion Submit a Question Visit the Website Feeling curious AND generous?
