Build It: Your Custom AI Assistant
Lesson 9Guided by Haven7:00
"You designed an AI assistant. Now what?"
Haven takes your prior lesson and turns it into something that actually works — a real, custom AI you built yourself. She walks you through testing, debugging, and one ethical question every builder has to answer before they ship anything. (Yes, you'll have a working AI by the end.)
The big idea
Your Blueprint answered 5 questions. Your system prompt turns those answers into instructions. Today you make the build.
By the end of this lesson, a student can
- Write a system prompt with all 5 layers
- Debug a system prompt by isolating the broken layer
- Decide which limits and access rules your AI should respect
