I set up two options in custom instructions. I told it to ask me each time which way to respond. For personal life? Or for work? And I wrote up specifics for each of those. I suppose you could set up more than two.

Hey, that's a brilliant way to hack it, thanks for the idea! Will give it a whirl... when custom instructions finally come to Europe.

Nicole, I only see one field for custom instructions in Settings. Did you do this somewhere else, or was the initial prompt something like, "ask me every time whether it's for work or personal, and do X or Y depending" , then with the additional instructions?

I appreciate the potential workaround!

The latter is how I read Nicole's comment: Writing both sets of instructions into the single "custom instructions" field and explicitly telling ChatGPT to ask which one to use for each chat.

But I'd also love to hear any specifics that might be helpful here!

Dan, I'm gonna give this a shot. Thanks for facilitating this conversation! and, thanks again, Nicole.
