The presentation titled "Custom GPTs: A Glimpse Into the Future of Effective Mentoring with Artificial Intelligence" is scheduled for February 5, 2024, at SUNY Empire’s CMLAI. Authored by Val Chukhlomin, Ph.D., and Bidhan Chandra, Ph.D., from the School of Business at SUNY Empire, it explores the development and implications of Custom GPTs (Generative Pre-trained Transformers). It is an exploratory experimental project that showcases the potential of the latest Generative AI for effective mentoring. The presentation covers the OpenAI ChatGPT family, including the free version, ChatGPT Plus, and introduces "Custom" GPTs since November 2023. It discusses various experiments conducted from November 2023 to January 2024, addressing how these technologies can enhance student mentoring in the age of Generative AI.
