This reminds me of the Six Thinking Hats method from Edward de Bono! I also found many custom ChatGPTs that use it by giving six different perspectives on things like a team. Is this similar?
Somewhat… But persona’s are actually multidimensional collections of traits and behaviors, so it’s not quite the same as just having different viewpoints. They not only have different viewpoints, but they also have different ways of processing the information.
They can parse information through multiple filters, as an expert in a certain field, with a specific skill set, a specific cognitive style, with a certain perspective. Just as people have many different traits and qualities, you can give those traits and qualities to AI personas, whichcauses them to process the information differently than they would without those dimensions.
I get what you’re saying, though I think we’re describing the same function - just with different language. GPTs with team-based personas already do process through layered traits: cognitive style, skill, even personality. That's what I was referring to with the Six Hats analogy.
My various personas are isolated in separate sessions. They can't interact with each other directly. I'd have to prompt each one separately in different sessions.

Multidimensional? Lost you there

I can barely manage my one AI, though. :)
This is awesome Kay, really brings your idea of persona teams into focus for me! -Christine Ink
How are all personas combined in one session?

They are all in the same custom GPT
