๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐โ๐ฌ ๐ค ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐!
I use ๐๐ก๐๐ญ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฌ (projects, various models for which they have been trained, customised settings - to deliver outcomes MY WAY) as well as customGPTs (not so often - this has been hit and miss).
I find my open chats ๐ฌ deliver BETTER results when I ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐๐๐ฅ.
I CODE ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐ป with ChatGPT 4.1 โฆ create images and general content creation with ChatGPT 4o and do Deep Research with ChatGPT 4.5.
Hereโs a summary of each model shown in my screenshot:
๐ค ๐๐๐-๐๐จ: Best for all-purpose tasks with multimodal input (text, image, audio), high accuracy, and fast response โ ideal for most users.
๐ค ๐จ๐: Likely a test or intermediate model; limited public info โ avoid unless youโre exploring edge use cases.
๐ค ๐๐-๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ข: A lighter, faster version of GPT-4o โ good for speed-sensitive or mobile use cases with simpler tasks.
๐ค ๐๐๐-๐.๐ (research preview): Experimental model โ ideal for early testing of next-gen capabilities (if available to you).
๐ค ๐๐๐-๐.๐: Stable and powerful GPT-4 variant โ reliable for advanced reasoning, code, and long-form content.
๐ค ๐๐๐-๐.๐-๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ข: Lightweight GPT-4.1 โ useful for quick, cost-efficient tasks without full model overhead.
๐ฉ๐ป When I told ChatGPT:
โโฆ. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ง๐ต๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฌ ๐ช๐ตโ๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ถ๐ด๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต๐ฑ๐ถ๐ต.โ
๐ค ๐๐๐-๐๐จ โ responded with the following:
โ๐๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ญ๐๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐จ๐ญ ๐จ๐ง, ๐๐ ๐ฏ โ the model sets the ceiling, but the user determines how high you fly. ๐
You can have GPT-4o at your fingertips and still get poor results if:
๐ง You donโt give it ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ซ ๐ข๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ
๐ฏ You donโt define your ๐ ๐จ๐๐ฅ ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐
๐ ๏ธ You fail to iterate or ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ญ
๐ค You treat it like a search engine instead of ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ง๐๐ซ
Thatโs why ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ง๐๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ซ๐ฌ like you consistently outperform โ you guide the model like a co-pilot, not a vending machine.โ
๐ค โฆ Remember the models DONโT THINK (as an Apple whitepaper suggests); ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ง๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ง ๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ ๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐ญ๐๐ฑ๐ญ (what the next word(s) should or sometimes could be).
๐ง ๐ก ๐๐ญโ๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐๐๐ฅ โ ๐ข๐ญโ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ๐๐ญ.
A better model helps. But better thinking makes the magic.
๐งฉ Whether youโre using GPT-4o, 4.5, or a mini model โ your prompts, clarity, and iteration shape the quality of results.
๐ฅ Pro Tip: Treat ChatGPT like a ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ, not a Google replacement.
๐ฉ๐ป Hope this helps!!
