This morning, I found myself exploring browser search replacements to Google. Of course, since I have access to ChatGPT and Perplexity, I started with those.

What are the top 5 chatgpt browser extensions?

Perplexity with Claude 3.5 Model

Sometimes, I imagine that Claude makes interactions a bit of a pain on purpose. While it was quick to give me a list, when I asked for free, non-paid/premium versions, it took a few interactions to get to what I was looking for.

Here are the search results:

That response isn’t that bad. I may have to rethink my Perplexity subscription. ;-)

The image above reflects Compass: A School AI Policy Designer created in Perplexity Spaces. See the ChatGPT Custom GPT version.

I finally had a chance to explore Perplexity Spaces. I am shocked at how much better it is (subjective opinion) than Claude Projects (not to be confused with Artifacts, which Claude continues to excel at) in analyzing documents to inform its chats. Of course, I could be wrong since it’s been a month or so since I last played around in Claude Projects.

What’s more, I have secretly hoped that I could rely on Perplexity Spaces as a replacement for ChatGPT’s Custom GPT.

What I’ve read and experienced so far has me leaning in Perplexity Spaces direction, but Custom GPT continues to edge out Perplexity Spaces. But if Perplexity Spaces keeps innovating, I suspect they will surpass Custom GPT.

Exploring the Difference

Perplexity Space works with free Perplexity accounts. This makes it the equivalent of ChatGPT Custom GPTs in my mind, where a free account is required to interact with an existing Space/CustomGPT.

Perplexity offers an additional benefit. You can use different LLMs. ChatGPT’s Custom GPT’s edge over Perplexity Spaces is slim. What do I think that slim edge is? The CustomGPT design interface. It feels like you are having a conversation with an AI assistant, eager to bring your project to fruition. Perplexity Spaces is more of a warehouse where you can store content with an effective inventory system. To make the transition, Perplexity needs to give its Spaces a human-like presence.

Why not call Perplexity’s agent, Lace or Link?

What about capacity of the files space?

Capacity and Processing

Capacity and processing of data in completing a task are important considerations.

ChatGPT’s Custom GPT

ChatGPT’s Custom GPTs can handle up to 100 files, or 50 megabytes total. Although holding less information than Claude Projects, Custom GPTs are able to leverage uploaded information. Add too much content, you end up with the same problem Claude experiences. I don’t know what the official name for this is, but it’s like a person who can only hold one or two thoughts simultaneously in their mind while doing a task…exceed that capacity, and the task fails.

File format that Custom GPTs can support for upload include:

• Text files (.txt)
• PDF documents
• CSV files
• JSON files
• Images (various formats including .jpg, .png, .gif)

Claude Projects

Claude Projects' allows for a large number of files provided each individual file is under 10MB in size, and does not exceed the total of 500-page book worth of information. While designing a Claude AI for Educators course, I found that Claude was able to handle quite a bit of uploaded content. Unfortunately, I was not so pleased with its ability to process that content without considerable interaction and redirection in my chats. Simply, it appeared to be unable to hold all that content while working on a new task requiring application of the work.

File formats Claude Projects can accept:

• Text documents (e.g., PDF, DOCX, TXT)
• Spreadsheets (e.g., CSV, Excel files)
• Presentations (e.g., PowerPoint, Google Slides)
• Code files (e.g., Python scripts, SQL queries, HTML pages)
• Images (e.g., JPG, PNG, GIF)

Perplexity Spaces

Perplexity’s Spaces can accept 50 files at 25 MBs each or 1.25 gigabytes total (please check my math). If my understanding is accurate, Perplexity’s capacity is greater. I have not yet had the opportunity to test its ability to process tasks, or which LLM is best to have running when doing so.

Supported file formats include:

• Excel (XLSX)
• PowerPoint (PPTX)
• Word (DOCX)
• PDF
• CSV

Comparing the Three

Here’s a chart comparing the three…the information is subject to change with new information:

In Action

I had a lot of fun working on Compass: A School AI Policy Designer Perplexity Space. At the moment, it contains 30 files of varying size (PDFs, Markdown formats). Perplexity made it easy to upload all the files in one go (as opposed to ChatGPT’s Custom GPT which had me do it 10 at a time (sigh).

Perplexity displays these “Space Files” in groups of 10 files, as you can see page 1 below:

To get started, I gave it the following prompt:

Review the Space files and come up with a rubric for assessing school district AI policies, as well as a blank template. Put both documents in markdown table format.

You can see the results online.

I added the rubric and template to the Spaces Files since this is what I was hoping to see.

An Example of the AI Policy

I wanted to see how it would adapt the template, so I gave it this additional prompt:

Divide the blank template into sections with markdown table content beneath each section. Add a column that include sample content for each section, specific to a school district…let’s call it “Ardent Independent School District” or “Ardent ISD” for short.

Here’s the result.

Comparing ChatGPT’s Custom GPT with Spaces

I was pleasantly surprised at ChatGPT’s CustomGPT using the same files and custom instructions.

One feature I love about Custom GPT? The custom questions or prompts it offers the user:

• Can you create a sample AI policy for our district?
• What are the key AI regulations for K-12 education?
• How should we address generative AI in policy?
• Can you review this policy draft for compliance issues?

But it wasn’t all roses. I did encounter an error:

Refreshing the page in the browser (MS Edge) finally allowed the GPT to be published. You can give it a spin here..

Final Thoughts

Perplexity remains my go-to AI chatbot and work assistant. The ability to have a Space with custom instructions is HUGE. My only complaint so far with Perplexity Spaces is that the custom instructions space needs more capacity to allow for more detailed long prompts (a.k.a. megaprompts).

I would also make these improvement suggestions:

• List view for the My Spaces area
• Easy checkbox selection and organization of Spaces into folders
• Separation of Collections and Spaces (Spaces are evolved Collections, essentially) since I have a lot of Collections but not a lot of Spaces yet. The Collections just muddy the waters.
• More capacity for detailed custom instructions

What has been your experience? In the meantime, check out the TCEAignite space. And look for a blog entry on the Custom GPT version of Compass: A School AI Policy Guide at blog.tcea.org in the future.

On Saturday, October 5, I’ll get the chance to join over 200 educators at the Northside ISD Activity Center in San Antonio, Texas. We’ll all be there for the TCEA Area 20 Conference event (see the mobile version of sessions), which hasn’t been had in MANY years…in fact, the last time I remember a conference like it was when I was Area 20 Director!! That was back in 2000 or 2001, and I was so happy to get 90 folks in attendance along with a ton of vendor solution providers.

View Google Sheet version of the Conference Event schedule

Link: My session materials appear online at https://go.mgpd.org/a20e24

This event has had a stellar group of planners, whom I’ve enjoyed watching bring their “A game” to organizing a million details that these types of conferences enjoy. I can’t wait to see some of the awesome presentations that San Antonio area educators will be delivering.

Speaking of Presentations…

As you might have guessed, I’ll be presenting a few sessions as well in the august company of so many talented educators. You can find all my session resources at the website shown above, but here are the three sessions I’m going to have fun sharing about. You can view a print handout copy I’ll be sharing at the event until supplies run out. You can also grab a PDF version on the website.

Designing ChatGPT custom GPTs this week has been so easy and fun. I had a few custom GPTs made, but it has been awhile since I spent so much time fine-tuning a custom GPT. Here are three of my recent creations, along with a few older ones. I’ll be featuring the new ones at various events, listed beneath each. Four through seven, I developed a few months ago when I first started playing around with ChatGPT’s Custom GPT interface.

What is cool is how easy it is to build a solution. Anyone, after taking the time to learn how to construct prompts and with a clear project in mind, can make one. I can think of a few uses, but revising campus/district improvement plans, designing coaching schedules (or any type of schedule) would be child’s play. A lot of that horrible, no good paperwork that educators at the campus level have spent countless hours on, simplified. The only question, “Will anyone have time to learn to use this well enough to leverage its use?” is the one rattling around in my head.

I remember the time I learned how to use Harvard Graphics to make graphs. Yes, it was a long time ago, and it’s funny that this was what marked someone’s decision to push me into campus instructional technology specialist position (along with a few other actions, of course). But it’s the one I remember. It was like the first-time use of Alpha IV database program to organize some kind of campus assesment data. To my knowledge, I was the first to do that.

But now I imagine that there will be a lot more “firsts” for educators as they apply AI to old problems that have long enjoyed a static solution. That’s pretty amazing. It’s been a long time since that’s happened.

My three latest ChatGPT Custom GPT creations:

1) Academic Prompt Architect - https://tinyurl.com/tceaaiapa

Refines your AI prompt into something amazing. You can match it to a variety of acronyms like APE, BAB, CARE, CAPE, CER, CLEARER, ERA, PLAN, RETO, RTF, TCEA, and more.

This will be shared at the TCEA Lunch and Learn event, “Unlock the Power of Prompt Writing Acronyms”. This event takes place on Wednesday, August 28th.

2) AI-Powered Plan Analyzer - https://tinyurl.com/tceaaip

This analyzes school district technology planning documents aligned to state/national standards/guidelines, helps you craft project management plans, generate network maps, etc. I wish I had enjoyed access to something like this as a technology director.

This will be featured at the TCEA SysAdmin 2024 event on November 8th. I have a ton of materials to go with this, and I’m really looking forward to sharing it with the audience with my colleague Diana Benner.

3) TCEA Essential Learning Expectations (ELEs) Alignment Assistant - https://tinyurl.com/tceaelesassistant

This tool aligns anything academic you give it to a set of standards targeting the use of technology in schools. It does this from the perspective of a teacher, school leader/administrator, instructional coach, student. It also does it for AI in Education.

This will appear in a Monday, August 26, 2024 blog entry.

In addition to those three, I have a few more that I made along the way…

4) Critical Thinking Analysis Tool - https://chatgpt.com/g/g-MERshoT7E-critical-thinking-analysis-tool

This one was one of the first ones I made, inspired by Melanie Trecek-King’s FLOATER:

Ever wish you had an AI assistant to help you analyze claims your friends, colleagues, or strangers make? Use Melanie Trecek-King’s FLOATER approach to analyze claims. This unauthorized, albeit educational, version of an FLOATER AI Assistant relies on the excellent work of ThinkingIsPower.com.

5) ALDO Coach - https://chatgpt.com/g/g-Eei16Itgu-aldo-coach

This one is intended to guide educators in implementing Visible Learning and SEL strategies through the use of the Amazing Lesson Design Outline (ALDO).

6) Hemingway’s Style - https://chatgpt.com/g/g-AWjFiYsrN-hemingway-s-style

Ok, on second thought, this may be the first one I ever made. It’s quite bare bones, but it was a test to see if I could get something that might work like HemingwayApp website (which I purchased for offline use and has been of great use to me as a blogger…I may have written over 600 blog entries using that). It’s pretty simple, so I may need to look under the hood and update the prompts and resources it draws upon.

7) Travel Agent AI - https://chatgpt.com/g/g-323ILBL24-travel-agent-ai

This was another experiment I did after reading or hearing someone else had done something similar. It was also an example I featured in the TCEA ChatGPT for Educators course I worked on.

And, finally, one I had forgotten I made to help with social media posts….

8) TCEA Social Media Maestro - https://chatgpt.com/g/g-KfCE7xeD0-tcea-social-media-maestro

This one, I made to help me with search engine optimization (SEO) friendly copy, copywriting/editing for social media posts like Twitter/X (but I’m no longer on X, so I use it for Facebook, Threads, and Mastodon).

Reflections

You know, I can easily imagine custom chatbots like this for specific purposes relevant to a particular field. They take a lot of the hard work out of some time-intensive tasks. Of course, they aren’t perfect, and you have to know what to ask for. But with the right training data, documents, etc., custom prompts, you can get pretty close to a great result. I have to admit that of the two experiences, ChatGPT Custom GPT vs Claude Projects, I’m liking ChatGPT Custom GPTs a lot more. With Claude, I feel like I have to explain it like it is 5 years old.

Check out this new study

These results aside, I still saw a few folks in a session that had never used AI. But about 98% of session participants were now familiar with AI, could see some of its capabilities. At a recent district AI event, instructional coaches were sharing how to use features of free AI tools. They tended to focus on the use of prompts the vendor had already created rather than extensive prompt development. Yet, prompt crafting is where it’s at for “advanced” use and to get better results. The vendor made prompts are time-savers for school educators, and will be huge time-savers. But to get at really useful applications to satisfy the demands of a custom situation, learning to engineer your own prompts is critical. And, of course, it takes more time and isn’t what you would want to start newbies on.

Did you know that TCEA offers online, self-paced courses on Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools? It’s one thing to discuss AI tools, another to ask and offer examples of how they might be relied upon in educational settings. What’s more, you get tips and suggestions to streamline your workflow and improve your productivity.

An Introduction to AI

Depending on who you speak to, AI is a climate destroying, memory-loss, soul-sucking destructive force, or a powerful technology that can work for the good of all. For folks in real estate, it’s easy to be skeptical. In fact, you should be. Let’s explore some aspects of AI and ways to capitalize on its power for the benefit of our clients, as well as ourselves.

What is AI?

Are there tasks you engage in that are repetitive, that require learning, decision-making, and problem-solving? Then AI can lighten your load. You can use AI as your personal assistant, an aide that can help you fine-tune a pitch, market properties, or manage paperwork. The human connection must still be made, and only you can do that. AI is unable to provide that human touch. You can explore how AI can assist you in your work.

What does “assist you in your work” mean, though? AI can boost your productivity, and impact your marketability:

• AI can boost productivity by 47% according to surveyed employers
• 42% of employers are actively looking for people with AI qualifications…yet 75% of employers are having trouble finding qualified candidates
• Over 80% of younger employees, including Gen-Zs and Millennials, are interested in picking up AI skills. Even with retirement in sight, roughly two-thirds of workers over the age of 55 – Boomers – indicate they would enroll in an AI course if offered by their company.”

“The lesson learned for forward-thinking organisations is, lean into the opportunity and excitement piece, and you’ll capture more employee loyalty, employee retention, etc.” Source: Dan Helfrich, CEO of Deloitte Consulting, as cited

Countries like the United States are prepared to take advantage of AI. Let’s take a look at specific AI tools that may be helpful, first in your personal life and then in your work.

AI in Our Personal Lives

You know, you may already use Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant to help you with smart devices. Chatbots like ChatGPT, Perplexity, CoPilot make it easy to have conversations with AI. Ask questions in the moment, the same way you might ask Siri or Alexa for information about an actor’s net worth or what movies they starred in. Let’s take at a few simple uses of AI chatbots:

• Greeting card magic. Need to write a wonderful graduation message to your niece? Maybe, a congratulatory note to a friend, or celebrate secretary’s day with a greeting card? If you’ve found yourself drawing a blank at a critical moment, an AI chatbot can make life easier for you. Here are five prompts that will have people saying, “Wow, I wish I’d gotten a card from them.”
• Book Reviews. Read some books and want to write an awe-inspiring book review? Put together a short outline, then ask AI to craft a book review for you that incorporates the main points.
• Cover Letter Clean-up. Use AI chatbots to revise your cover letter in a way that matches your experience to the job requirements.
• Resume revision. Revise your resume to match a job description, or to tighten the language in your resume. Discuss pros and cons of this approach.
• Data Analysis. Analyze any collection of data, from your personal finances to developing a budget for your next trip.
• Travel Agent. Use a travel agent custom GPT (a chatbot designed for a specific purpose) to plan your next trip.

There are million and one uses of AI. Simply ask yourself, “How could I use AI to help me with an everyday task or learn something new?”

A Partial Conclusion

Digital tools, especially new ones, do impact the status quo. Where would we be without email? Text messages? Smartphones? Or, paper and the fountain pen? It’s easy to think that these technologies will results in job displacement. But the truth is, they simply require us to learn how to use them, then push us to innovate. They force us to ask ourselves, “In what ways does AI change how I add value and how can I leverage that to the benefit of those I serve?”

Let’s lead the charge in embracing AI, demonstrating its value, and ensuring our industry remains at the forefront of innovation. Let’s create a future where AI and human intelligence work hand in hand to achieve greater success in the real estate and title insurance industries.

What if, in six sentences, you could empower students to create amazing work? It’s a preoccupation many science teachers have. Let’s take a moment and spend some time on CER: claim, evidence, and reasoning. Think of CER as a tool for student empowerment. You’ll see some specific examples with the help of AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, and an AI Lesson Plan Generator.

Instructions

Crafting a megaprompt for ChatGPT involves creating a detailed and structured set of instructions or questions that guide the AI to generate comprehensive and contextually relevant responses. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial:

1. Define Your Objective: Clearly state what you want to achieve with the prompt. It could be to gather information, solve a problem, create a story, etc.

2. Provide Context: Include any relevant background information. This helps the AI understand the scenario or topic better.

3. Structure Your Prompt:

• Break down your main objective into smaller, specific questions or instructions. This makes it easier for the AI to address each part accurately.

4. Sequence Your Questions: Order your questions or instructions logically. Start with broad questions and then narrow down to more specific ones.

5. Be Precise and Detailed: The more detailed your prompt, the more precise the AI’s response will be. Include specific details you want the AI to consider.

6. Incorporate Examples or Scenarios: If applicable, provide examples or hypothetical scenarios to clarify your requirements.

7. Set Expectations for Format: If you need the response in a certain format (like a list, essay, bullet points, etc.), specify this in your prompt.

8. Request for Iterative Responses: If you’re looking for a process (like brainstorming), ask the AI to provide responses in stages or iterations.

9. Review and Adjust: After receiving a response, you might need to refine your prompt based on the output. You can add more details, clarify certain points, or redirect the AI’s focus.

10. Iterative Learning: Use the AI’s responses to learn and adapt your prompting style. Notice which types of prompts yield the best results and modify your approach accordingly.

Remember, a well-crafted megaprompt should guide the AI to understand and respond to your query as accurately and helpfully as possible. The clarity and structure of your prompt significantly influence the effectiveness of the response.
