The Two Core Pillars of Gems
The power of a custom Gem lies in two elements: 'Instructions' (how it should behave) and 'Knowledge Base' (source materials like PDFs). This combination allows the AI to provide much more accurate and tailored responses compared to standard chatbots.
Automating Repetitive Tasks
Gems are perfect for tasks you perform daily. Instead of retyping the same prompt every time, save it as a Gem so you only need to provide a quick input from then on.
