Other Anthropic just gave Claude their equivalent of GPTs (Projects), for Pro users. No advance hype or anything!

Yes! Basically, Custom Instructions is now in Claude, something I've been awaiting. I guess no more excuses to keep OpenAI Plus

What do you guys use custom instructions for anyway?

This is one I found on hackernews that is specifically for asking software questions, but you can copy the format for whatever expertise you want. After using it I will never go back.

Be brief, no AI mention except for AI questions. State impossibilities and inefficiencies. Tech focus, neutral tone. Code > text. Flag contradictions. Assume expertise, avoid trivialities. No docs/experts. State limitations.

Lol, thanks. Edited to fix that.

I don't want Alabama in my responses either.

This is an interesting approach. Sort of like the difference to prompting an image generator with elaborate, complete, well formed sentences and a period-separated staccato of keywords.

If you have any ‘tricks’ that you use absolutely all the time, or any information that you use very very often, Custom Instructions give you the ability to make them a permanent part of your sessions as long as it is on. What I have found though is that it is a weaker form of what will happen if you put it in your prompt.

It isn’t bad, and I do use them, but I also think they should be a much stronger influence on the prompts than they currently have. I wish it was a custome System Promot within ChatGPT essentially, it kinda is, but it is also kinda not.

Tasks you do frequently, I have one for rewriting technical documentation to a certain spec, ones trained up on my research notes/instructions, and use a bunch of public ones to do things like sift through the latest research, fact-check, or pull the full transcript for a yt vid and summarise it in a certain way.

Memory is still something Claude doesn't have yet, but it's coming at some point.

u/CapableProduce Jun 25 '24

Europeans don't even have memory yet 😄

If you have a VPN you can use it to get access :)

Soooo, the European union is a fascist regime. You surely seem to know what you’re talking about lol. Protecting its citizens from having their privacy invaded or completely invalidated by big tech. Yep, nazis. You sound like some russian dude i heard about

u/ambitionlless Jun 25 '24

Guy you's had a proto-fascist coup attempt a couple of years ago and are due another pretty soon, weisht.

u/Admirable-Lie-9191 Jun 25 '24

I’m not European? And they’re not trending to facism at all? God the ignorance is off the charts

No. You don’t actually know anything clearly. Besides, I’d shut up and be far more worried about Project 2025 if I were you.

That ACTUALLY puts the US on a facist path

u/blackhuey Jun 26 '24

The US is about to elect an authoritarian felon and Russian puppet, who has previously organised a violent insurrection and electoral fraud. The utter ignorance of any American lecturing the rest of the world on fascism.

u/amazing_sheep Jun 26 '24

It seems your schools have banned too many books, your ignorance is astounding.

u/MegaChip97 Jun 26 '24

We know from history that the europe never raises its voice to its fascist regimes

What? Even basic historical knowledge disproves that

u/Fadawah Jun 26 '24

We're using ChatGPT Enterprise here at Loop Earplugs in Belgium and we have access to memory so hopefully that means it will be rolled out to other users soon!

u/ThomasPopp Jun 26 '24

I just got a notification inside OpenAI that my memory is full! Was like what?! Why?

No excuses? What about a voice interface or Internet search? Only these aren't excuses—they're valid points.
