Over the past few years, the way we interact with an AI has changed a lot. Now, everyone seems to enjoy spending time with an AI chatbot like ChatGPT.

To make your chat experience better, OpenAI introduced new personalization options for ChatGPT. You have more control over how the chatbot sounds and responds during a conversation.

Customizing ChatGPT’s Personality

OpenAI already offered lots of base styles and tone for ChaGPT like Professional, Friendly, Candid, Quirky, etc. Now, even after selecting the base style and tone, you can fine-tune those personalities further by adjusting individual characteristics.

The new customization options let you decide how warm or formal ChatGPT should sound, how enthusiastic or calm its responses should feel, and whether it can use Emojis or not to connect with you better.
