Post 14 – Creating a consistent character with a custom GPT
Today I’m testing another custom GPT called Consistent Character. The following instructions are from a newsletter I subscribe to about all things AI, called The Rabbit Hole, which is very informative. Here's a referral link to subscribe if you think it might be useful to you too.
Here's my prompt: 62 year old male called Chris, shaved head, clean shaven. Wearing Tom Ford tortoiseshell square framed glasses. Wearing a black t-shirt, with a black shirt over it. Runs a creative services company. Looks friendly and approachable. Try a photographic style in landscape format, background can be a modern high tech agency office environment.
The first image below on the left is what it came up with. I then asked it to remove the beard and got the second image, not sure what that's all about and then the third was another go asking it to remove the beard again! I think the first is probably the best version to what I think I might of had in mind!
So, in review I'm not entirely sure it's very consistent!
