What is ChatGPT in 2025?

ChatGPT is an AI platform built on GPT-4o, OpenAI's latest language and multimodal AI. The platform allows you to:

  • Use text, images, speech, and files in your conversations

  • Build Custom GPTs with your own instructions, files, and tone-of-voice

  • Manage projects while preserving context across multiple sessions

  • Analyze files such as spreadsheets, PDFs, and presentations

  • Save and share prompt libraries with your team

In 2022, you might have used individual prompts, but now you can work with complete workflows within ChatGPT.

The art of powerful prompts

Why prompts make all the difference

A good prompt is like a well-formulated brief: the more specific, the better the output. Prompt engineering is the key skill that determines how efficient and valuable your AI work becomes.

Prompt framework: RACE

A useful model for structuring prompts is the RACE model:

  • R = Role β†’ Assign a role to the AI: "You are an experienced email marketer"

  • A = Action β†’ What needs to happen? "Write an A/B test for a win-back campaign"

  • C = Context β†’ Who is the target audience, what is the product, which channel?

  • E = Examples β†’ Provide examples or demonstrate the desired style

Prompt hacks that work

  • Add "Think aloud" for more transparent output

  • Use bullet points to force ChatGPT to provide structure

  • Let ChatGPT evaluate and improve its own answers

Working with Projects: maintaining context

One of the most powerful features of ChatGPT Plus (with GPT-4o) is the use of Projects:

  • Create a project for each client, campaign, or topic.

  • You can add multiple documents, images, or spreadsheets.

  • ChatGPT remembers previous conversations within that project

  • Perfect for long-term strategic applications

Use Cases:

  • Building a content strategy in 6 months

  • Prepare sales training per target audience

  • Generate all product descriptions for a new online store

Pro tip: Also use Projects to build presentations with a consistent style.

My GPTs: Build your own AI assistant

With My GPTs, you can build your own version of ChatGPT, complete with:

  • Instructions (who are you, what do you do?)

  • A specific tone of voice

  • Uploaded documents

  • API calls or built-in tools

Examples of custom GPTs:

  • An "Email Expert GPT" that exclusively writes email campaigns in your style

  • An "SEO Analyzer GPT" that identifies technical content errors

  • A "Shopify Copy GPT" that transforms all product descriptions into conversion-focused content

Pro tip: Combine this with your own brand style guide and tone-of-voice documents.

In conclusion: the future of ChatGPT is hybrid

AI won't replace you, but a marketer who effectively uses AI will.

With the evolution towards GPTs, multimodal input, and long-term memory, ChatGPT in 2025 will no longer be used for isolated prompts, but as a full-blown assistant or even as a virtual colleague.
