The big idea
ChatGPT has Custom GPTs. Claude has Projects. Both let you save instructions for repeated tasks. Build your own — a homework helper, study buddy, personal coach.
Some examples
- Custom GPT/Project: 'Always quiz me before letting me do X.'
- Custom GPT/Project: 'Always respond in [your style].'
- Custom GPT/Project: 'Only help me with this specific subject.'
- Custom GPT/Project: 'Always remind me of my goals before answering.'
