How to develop a good AI character

There are some specific key points you will need to look at to customize a great character that best suits your goal.

• Define the AI's Role: determine the tone and manner of the AI's responses. If you're developing an AI for the healthcare industry, you might define its role as a "fitness advisor." This ensures ChatGPT generate more accurate response based on healthy and fitness data

• Set up system instruction: the system instruction forms the base for all the AI's responses. Ensure it aligns with the role you've defined.

• Add training examples: training examples guide how the AI should respond to different inputs. Moreover, the accuracy and relevance of the AI's responses greatly depend on the quality of the training examples.
