From the ALI Playbook: How I Build Custom AI Assistants in ChatGPT Using Flow Hacks from the ALI Playbook
In this exposé, I walk through one of the most powerful Flow Hacks from the ALI Playbook how to turn ChatGPT into a fully customized AI assistant designed around your exact needs. Instead of using AI as a generic tool, this method lets you define a clear role, activate a specialized assistant, and continuously train it with your workflows and knowledge. The result: faster execution, less repetition, and expert-level support available on demand. This simple framework can be used to build an entire team of AI assistants that level up your productivity and transform the way you work.

I use one of the Flow Hacks from the ALI Playbook to create my own personalized AI assistants inside ChatGPT assistants that think, respond, and work exactly the way I need them to. It’s one of the simplest ways to streamline workflows, eliminate repetitive tasks, and get expert-quality support on demand.
Here’s how I do it.
First, I define the role I want my AI assistant to play. I ask ChatGPT to create a full job description—responsibilities, required skills, expected outputs so I have a clear blueprint to work from. ChatGPT fills in the nuanced details too, including foundational default skills that make the assistant effective right away.
Once the role is set, I activate the assistant by saying:
“Act as this AI assistant and answer all questions as if you are fulfilling this role.”
From that point on, ChatGPT responds exactly like the expert I designed.
After that, I continue developing it. I use the same chat to feed it new information documents, workflows, reports and refine its responsibilities as I go. And when I need support in other areas, I simply create additional assistants for different functions.
This Flow Hack turns ChatGPT from a general tool into a tailored team of AI assistants built around my needs and it’s one of the most powerful habits from the ALI Playbook.
