I’ve started picking up a new language with the help of LLMs (not the only source, but it helps me make flashcards using Leipzig Glossings) and it’s helped me read through math textbooks on my free time much faster/more thoroughly (ambiguous concepts/proofs that used to require a TA or professor for help now I can sort through on my own without having to laboriously cross reference two other textbooks). I also created a prototype app that creates flashcards automatically for a distributed systems book I am currently working through, making concepts stick longer through active recall. I’ll also use LLMs to learn more about the tangental figures in the history books I am reading that I couldn’t have just learned from the book itself and would have been too much of a hassle to look online or in other books.

These are just a few examples of how I use LLMs to learn faster.

LLMs are a tool and I have seen massive gains from them personally
