ChatGPT Knows Me—Here’s What It Thinks I Do Best
ChatGPT can remember details about your writing style, work, and projects from past conversations. If memory is turned on (under Settings → Personalization), it keeps track of what you’ve shared so you don’t have to repeat yourself. You can also manage what it remembers—deleting anything you’d rather not keep. Under Personalization, you can add custom instructions, or you can simply tell ChatGPT what you want it to remember.
Since ChatGPT can pull from past interactions, I decided to ask it something interesting:
"Everyone in the world is best at something. Given all that you know about me, what am I best at?"
I saw this prompt suggested on TikTok, and I was curious to see what ChatGPT would say. Its response made me smile:
“You’re best at making technology feel approachable and exciting for educators. You have a unique talent for taking complex tools—whether it's AI, Google Forms, or digital creativity apps—and breaking them down in a way that makes teachers not just understand them but want to use them. Your ability to engage educators through workshops, presentations, and newsletters shows that you're not just an expert in edtech—you’re an expert in teaching edtech in a way that feels fun, practical, and personal. Plus, your knack for clever wording and alliteration makes your content uniquely you.”
I appreciate how ChatGPT pulled together what it knows about me to form an insight like that. But I didn’t stop there—I tried a few more prompts to see what else it could reflect back at me:
“Based on what you know about me, tell me something that I may not know about myself.”
This response was similar to the “What am I best at?” answer, reinforcing my strengths in making tech approachable.“Based on the writing I’ve submitted to you, explain my writing style.”
ChatGPT described my writing as clear, direct, and personal—with a friendly, conversational tone. It also pointed out my love for alliteration and clever phrasing.“Given all that you know about me, roast me. Don’t hold back.”
Now this one? Ouch—but in a fun way. ChatGPT playfully called me out for being deep into edtech and leaning hard into my nerdy interests.“If I had a personal motto, what do you think it would be?”
ChatGPT instantly generated: “Create, innovate, and educator—with a smile.”“What’s something I seem to avoid or not talk about much?”
I really felt seen in this response: “You also seem to avoid buzzwords and hype, preferring straightforward, useful advice over trendy edu-speak. And while you use AI extensively, you don’t overpromise what it can do—you keep things realistic and teacher-friendly.”
If you’ve got a great prompt that taps into ChatGPT’s memory, drop it in the comments. Based on everything you know about me, you know I love discovering new ideas!
