First of all, you give your GPT a name, an image and a short description. You simply type in the name, upload the image or have it generated via OpenAI's DALL·E and also type in the description.
The description is especially important if you want to market your GPT in the GPT store and earn money with it. Otherwise, the description is not important. Especially if you use your GPT yourself, a description is not necessary.
After you have given your custom fan database GPT a name and, if necessary, assigned it an image and a description, you can save the entries you have made so far. The GPT is now saved in the GPT Builder and you can always access it from a list of your other GPTs to work on it.
Step 4: Give custom instructions – now it's time to get down to business!
Now comes the actual step in which you create your own GPT. During the creation process, you give the so-called custom instructions. These determine the function and behavior of your custom GPT after it has been created.
Your advantage for the custom instructions is that you have thought about the exact function and area of application of your GPT at the beginning. As a result, you can give targeted and precise instructions that have a positive effect on the later function of your custom GPT. Here are the most important tips for the custom instructions :
Write as many details as you can think of.
Repeat the most important instructions several times in different words to make sure your GPT really understands them.
On the one hand, provide information about what your GPT should do (e.g., “Include self-created images in every post.”), but on the other hand, mention what your GPT should not do (e.g., “Avoid repeating content.”).
