We’re introducing custom instructions so that you could tailor ChatGPT to raised meet your needs. This feature will likely be available in beta starting with the Plus plan today, expanding to all users in the approaching weeks. Custom instructions help you add preferences or requirements that you simply’d like ChatGPT to think about when generating its responses.

We’ve heard your feedback in regards to the friction of starting each ChatGPT conversation afresh. Through our conversations with users across 22 countries, we’ve deepened our understanding of the essential role steerability plays in enabling our models to effectively reflect the various contexts and unique needs of everyone.

ChatGPT will consider your custom instructions for each conversation going forward. The model will consider the instructions each time it responds, so that you won’t must repeat your preferences or information in every conversation. 

For instance, a teacher crafting a lesson plan now not has to repeat that they are teaching third grade science. A developer preferring efficient code in a language that’s not Python – they’ll say it once, and it’s understood. Grocery purchasing for an enormous family becomes easier, with the model accounting for six servings within the grocery list.
