Creating a ChatGPT that thinks like you sounds like a futuristic headache—but Jay Schwedelson just made it feel like a no-brainer. After producing hundreds of podcasts, newsletters, and posts, Jay finally got tired of drowning in content chaos. His fix? A 10-minute, game-changing custom GPT that now powers his idea engine, streamlines content, and basically acts like a digital clone. The setup is surprisingly simple, and Jay swears it’s the best $20 he’s spent.
