Introduction to Custom GPTs
Custom GPTs are tailored AI models for specific use cases.
Can call external APIs or use external tools.
Offer personalized solutions for tasks (e.g., website generation, content writing, coding assistance).
Difference between Custom GPT and OpenAI Assistant:
Custom GPT

OpenAI Assistant
: Integrated by developers into apps.
Steps to Build a Custom GPT
Login and Access
Log into the ChatGPT web app.
Click 'Explore GPTs' to access the GPT store.
Click 'Create' for a new GPT creation.
Description and Configuration
Start by describing your GPT's purpose.
Example: "Social Hooksmith" for TikTok and Instagram hooks.
Name changes and configuration:

Configure using conversational setup or direct configuration.
Set conversation starters and knowledge base (can upload files).
Enable capabilities like web search and DALL-E image generation.
Adding Advanced Features
Create custom actions for external API calls.
Utilize 'Actions GPT' for assistance if needed.
Upload curated knowledge databases for customized responses.
Testing and Deployment
Test GPT's capabilities (e.g., generating hooks from knowledge base).
Check web search and image generation functions.
Use preview screen for testing; ensure desired behavior.
Select access controls for deployment (invite-only, company-wide, public).
Publishing and Common Issues
Verify builder profile for domain verification and publishing.
Avoid trademarked names (e.g., TikTok, Instagram) in GPT content.
Ensure domain verification through DNS settings.
