Full transcript

1. 0:00In this video, I going to show you on
2. 0:02how to get better outputs from your AI.
3. 0:05But first, I think people should know
4. 0:08what to do to get it to be better. And I
5. 0:12don't mean better puppet. I mean people
6. 0:15should learn on how to use AI better and
7. 0:19not just a generic esseric
8. 0:24copy and paste machine because if you do
9. 0:26that humans will be dumber and as race
10. 0:31we shouldn't be doing that we should be
11. 0:33enhancing ourselves with it. What I mean
12. 0:35by this is let's say you're doing a
13. 0:37report for a boss or for a teacher and
14. 0:41you you ask for a report about the topic
15. 0:45and you hand it in. Do you learn
16. 0:47anything? No, you do not. But you can
17. 0:49say I am going on A, B, C. Am I correct?
18. 0:56And you can come back say no you're not
19. 0:58correct with A and C. Here's why. Or
20. 1:04um you can person can ask like help me
21. 1:08understand this better for essay. It
22. 1:11will help you understand the topic
23. 1:13better and you learn something new and
24. 1:16you get you can get much better quality
25. 1:19output from it. What I mean by this is
26. 1:22my rating is not good at all. I use AI
27. 1:25to assist me with my rating just general
28. 1:27rating. I don't mean anything special
29. 1:30like emails, text messages, so on and so
30. 1:33forth. So I use that in that way but
31. 1:37I ask it to use it keep my voice or to
32. 1:42fix the errors and only sometimes only
33. 1:46do that because if I say fix the errors
34. 1:49it can make up new stuff for me. I don't
35. 1:53want that. I just want my my waiting to
36. 1:56be better. So I ask it to keep my voice
37. 1:59and and just fix the errors. It will do
38. 2:03that. Just fix it errors and keep my
39. 2:05voice. But if I want if my
40. 2:10ideas are all over the place, which they
41. 2:12were earlier today, which is uh February
42. 2:1619th for 2026 for future benefits, but I
43. 2:20was uh all replaced with my thoughts. I
44. 2:23asked it to
45. 2:26what can you clean this up and make it
46. 2:28more make it more make more sense about
47. 2:31this and it did. So that's another way
48. 2:34of you using AI and getting better
49. 2:36outpost. But for me to show you the demo
50. 2:39that I'm going to be showing you today I
51. 2:41want to turn over to my desktop and I go
52. 2:44and use CH GPT and custom instructions
53. 2:47for this demo. Anyway, see you in a
54. 2:51second.
55. 2:54Welcome back with my desktop. At the top
56. 2:57you can see you need to go to jutch
57. 3:01chatgpt.com
58. 3:04and then you get this showing up and
59. 3:07after you put in a message
60. 3:11and in this case I put in who am I? It
61. 3:14gives me a very generic question answer
62. 3:17because it at this point I turn off the
63. 3:20features that I won't show you in a
64. 3:22moment but it doesn't know me from Joe
65. 3:25or Jane or any or human being Ben. So
66. 3:28they give me a very generic question. So
67. 3:31answer which is fine. I only gave it who
68. 3:35I am and it has to draw from the sources
69. 3:39that it knows. So
70. 3:42um after you how you change that you can
71. 3:45go to the bottom corner
72. 3:49that I have in square and red and that's
73. 3:52your profile. After you click that you
74. 3:55can go to personalization
75. 3:58and uh a window will pop up says
76. 4:01personalization.
77. 4:02From here you can update your
78. 4:04preferences. Like if you really want to,
79. 4:07you can go change the tone
80. 4:11and the style, how warm it is, how after
81. 4:14the fact is, how how heard and written,
82. 4:18how much emojis, and so on. But we're
83. 4:22interested in custom instructions.
84. 4:25So when you get here, you can put in
85. 4:29what you want to say in this box that I
86. 4:32have the arrow pointed to. And when you
87. 4:36you can scroll down even more and will
88. 4:41say about you. You can put your name,
89. 4:44what occupation, and any more about you.
90. 4:48like
91. 4:49uh for me I like keep stuff short and
92. 4:53sweet sometimes. However, times I don't,
93. 4:56but that's another video. Anyway, you
94. 4:59can fill those out as you wish. And you
95. 5:01go to memories and this is a built-in
96. 5:04memory feature where you don't have to
97. 5:08have it um don't have to always tell it
98. 5:12who you are, what you're trying to do,
99. 5:14so on and so forth. So, I have that
100. 5:17turned off because if I have it turned
101. 5:18on, it knows me and that would not be a
102. 5:21very good demo. But I'll show you after
103. 5:24I turn it on and
104. 5:26fill out my custom instructions a little
105. 5:29bit. I'll show you the difference.
106. 5:31Anyway, if you want to have event
107. 5:34features, by all means, you can turn
108. 5:36them on or turn them off. I have them
109. 5:39all on. I figure it's benefit to have it
110. 5:41all on especially for people who are um
111. 5:45learning disabled or have dyslexia
112. 5:49voice enabled is a good feature because
113. 5:53you can have it talk back to you with a
114. 5:56corrective button. No other software
115. 5:59need it and that includes the free
116. 6:02version. So it's very helpful. Anyway,
117. 6:06moving on. So after I updated my
118. 6:10instructions, it has given me this
119. 6:13output. You can pause it and read it.
120. 6:16Um, basically it knows who I am, what
121. 6:19I'm trying to do,
122. 6:21uh, so on and so forth. And like I said,
123. 6:24you can pause it and read it. But what I
124. 6:27have changed is went back to where I was
125. 6:30and updated it for my custom
126. 6:33instructions and my nickname.
127. 6:36And again, you can pause this if you
128. 6:39want to copy it. By all means, you can,
129. 6:41but
130. 6:43anyway,
131. 6:45um, you can do that, fill it out. There
132. 6:48is other instructions you can put in. I
133. 6:51just use that for this is very this is
134. 6:55for this demonstration but you can put
135. 6:57in
136. 6:58um
137. 7:00your nickname whatever you want to call
138. 7:02yourself
139. 7:03um instructions like you can take out
140. 7:06the M dashes you can ask for longer
141. 7:09outputs you can ask for shorter outputs
142. 7:11you can ask to talk about a 5-year-old
143. 7:15so on and so forth if I can cover you if
144. 7:17people want me to cover more styles of
145. 7:21custom instructions.
146. 7:24Please read them in the please leave a
147. 7:27comment saying I want to know more
148. 7:29custom instructions in the comments. And
149. 7:31this leads me to ask you to like, share
150. 7:35and subscribe to my channel. And if you
151. 7:38find it helpful again, share it and like
152. 7:42it. It will greatly help me grow this
153. 7:45channel. And I think it's important to
154. 7:49do this because I'm showing new new
155. 7:52people how to use AI and also people who
156. 7:55are neo divergent
157. 7:57or think differently. So
158. 8:01what if you can help me spread the word
159. 8:03that would be great. Anyway, back to
160. 8:05what I was trying to show you. Uh like I
161. 8:09said, I turn filled my custom
162. 8:12instructions and put in my name and also
163. 8:17I have turned on uh my memory. I don't
164. 8:20have a screenshot for that. But if I go
165. 8:24over to the internet
166. 8:28and go to
167. 8:30p my
168. 8:33my personalizations I have turn on the
169. 8:35memories so I know it's who I am what
170. 8:38I'm trying to achieve so on and so
171. 8:40forth. When I turn them off I can do
172. 8:44that right now.
173. 8:46It's a very quick I can put in who am I.
174. 8:53It should give me a
175. 8:56at times it gives me two options
176. 9:00but
177. 9:01as you can see it gives me a very basic
178. 9:07um instructions. It knows my name
179. 9:09because I told it my name. But beyond
180. 9:12that, it's kind of generic. Both editors
181. 9:17are very generic. So when memories turn
182. 9:20on, it knows who I am, what I'm trying
183. 9:22to do. When memory is turned off, it
184. 9:25knows my name and I'm trying to make a
185. 9:27YouTube video and stationation. So
186. 9:30that's the difference. So if you are
187. 9:33using chutpt for a while and you do not
188. 9:36have that turned on, I would recommend
189. 9:39you turn it on. If you're new, I would
190. 9:42recommend you to turn on so you get
191. 9:45better outputs and over time it will get
192. 9:49learn about you. There is other software
193. 9:52that I can show you that gives you more
194. 9:56context uh availability, but
195. 9:59this is the most accessible that I know
196. 10:03of that you that you can do today and
197. 10:07for very low cost almost I think you can
198. 10:09do it for free. I do have a paid plan,
199. 10:13but there's no
200. 10:16paid barrier here for this kind of uh um
201. 10:21making it better for you to get better
202. 10:23outputs. You just need to know about the
203. 10:25feature and know how to use it. And I
204. 10:28think I covered that well. But again, if
205. 10:30you want to have more Excel on how what
206. 10:35you can put into your custom
207. 10:36instructions, please put in I want to
208. 10:39know more about custom instructions and
209. 10:41I can make a video about that. Anyway, I
210. 10:44will head over back to my myself on my
211. 10:48talking head bit to close it out.
212. 10:51So as you can see it's very it can be
213. 10:54very straightforward or you can be very
214. 10:56complex on how you get better outputs.
215. 10:59But I hope this is a very um you
216. 11:03beginner friendly and very new virgin
217. 11:06friendly demonstration on how you do do
218. 11:09this. Um again if you want to know more
219. 11:14just leave a comment and say I want to
220. 11:16know more. And if you know anyone who
221. 11:20needs to see this or want to see this,
222. 11:22please share it. It helps the channel
223. 11:24grow more from what you think. And with
224. 11:28all that being said, have a great day.
225. 11:31Bye.
