Ep. 11: WTF is a Custom GPT?


Listen Later

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”
