Using GPTs to Create Your Own Version of ChatGPT

GPTs enable modifying ChatGPT to have a chatbot that better caters to user needs. Customizing ChatGPT works for GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 versions by altering the model’s behavior, what it knows, and what it can do.

Hence, one can modify Chat GPT’s response style and provide it with additional data to supplement its existing knowledge and also integrate it with APIs to enable broader functionalities.

To create a GPT, visit the official ChatGPT site and under “Explore,” click on “Create a GPT” to configure your own version of ChatGPT.

GPT creation and usage are limited to ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise users.

GPTs offer more customization than ChatGPT Plugins and enable further development with ChatGPT.

How to Create Your Own Version of ChatGPT?

You can create your personalized version of ChatGPT by creating your GPT on the official ChatGPT site, then visiting “Create” (or directly on this page) using your GPT Plus / Enterprise account.

Go to “Explore” and click on “Create a GPT.”

You are now in the GPT editor.

Here, you’ll find the “Create” tab, which is a conversation with GPT Builder to explain what your GPT entails.

In the “Configure” tab, you can:

• give a name and description to your GPT
• choose an icon
• provide instructions for ChatGPT to behave in a certain way
• supply resources in “Knowledge” to expand ChatGPT’s knowledge boundaries (as of late 2021)
• grant access to the web, DALL·E, and ChatGPT’s basic code interpreter
• configure additional accesses (such as with Zapier) in “actions”
• and much more

Who Has Access to GPTs?

A GPT can be public or private. You can create your version of ChatGPT and decide to share it with the world or keep it for your private use.

One can also define internal access to GPTs, for example, for companies, if you want only a group of people to access your modified version of ChatGPT.

Examples of GPTs

There are numerous use cases for GPTs. We’ve already seen what ChatGPT was capable of with its “Plugins.” GPTs will be their enhanced version.

Zapier and Canva already offer their GPTs publicly.

GPT Store for Discovering GPTs

The marketplace for GPTs is expected to launch later in November 2023. Hence, one will be able to find all kinds of GPTs to accomplish various tasks.

While awaiting the GPT Store’s release, you can discover thousands of GPTs on Google by searching:
