About This Video

Are you tired of repeating the same instructions to ChatGPT? In this video, I show you how I build a custom GPT so it remembers my preferences and delivers the output in the exact format I want—without me typing the same prompt week after week. I walk you through where to find GPTs inside your ChatGPT account, why custom GPTs are such a time-saver, and a real example of how I use one to speed up my weekly newsletter workflow. From there, we build a custom GPT step-by-step: I click Explore, choose Create, and then focus on what matters most—the Instructions field. I explain how I like to keep instructions short and specific (often in bullet points), how to refine your GPT over time (you won’t get it perfect on the first try), and why uploading files and enabling web search can make your assistant much more useful depending on the job. Finally, I show you how to test your GPT in the preview window, adjust the output (like switching from bullets to short paragraphs), and choose whether it’s private, shareable by link, or published to the GPT store.
