I love the idea of creating a section for the chatbot to put more tentative ideas! I guess it's more or less accurate about its degree of certainty...

I guess there's no straightforward way of making a custom bot out of this? I think the prompt is too long for ChatGPT GPTs, and the performance is not as good. Maybe Poe.com? Oh, I just saw that Marc Watkins made a custom Gem.

I used GPT o3 model to revise the prompt and make it concise enough for a custom GPT. Then I used that new prompt to make this: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6817ddf960d081918994d78991949465-sift-toolbox-for-fact-checking

Oh wonderful! Thank you so much! I will try this out and probably share in workshops... I'd love to know how the performance compares.

Let me know how it works for you, too. I haven't had time to run many tests yet.

"I just saw that Marc Watkins made a custom Gem" - is it public?

Apparently there's not yet a way to share Gems, sigh.

This is useful! I made a custom Gem, but I don't seem to have a share button for sharing the Gem itself. But here's a link to a result from my Gem: https://g.co/gemini/share/f552e8a6c5dc

This is a great result! Occasionally Gemini produces broken links (not hallucinated, just slightly off) but this is wonderful

Today I used GPT o3 model to revise the prompt and make it concise enough for a custom GPT. Then I used that new prompt to make this: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6817ddf960d081918994d78991949465-sift-toolbox-for-fact-checking Interested to see if it holds up when you test it.

I'm turning this one from ChatGPT off, because it's not reading the text in images correctly... not sure why.

And now I think it's because custom GPTs use GPT4o, not a reasoning model. So it's not very capable.
