Stagnation is real… It kills… You set the direction of your success!
Learning any technology has always been hard as a newcomer. Over many years, people have built their own algorithms for how they approach it. It took me a rather long time to build mine.
Once you have enough experience, you can ask questions and steer topics with LLMs in ways that match your personal way of consuming knowledge.
Things are looking pretty good now. I think this is what people overlook… This technology can help you be 10x better at learning.
The downside is, you first need to learn who you are and how you consume and process information.
Chicken/egg problem…
Few notes for working with LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, or any other wrapper
-
You still need to do the work.
The tool won’t replace the effort. It can assist, but it won’t think or decide for you.
-
Turn “absolute mode” on.
Strip out emotional or communicative fluff. These are tools, not friends. Use them accordingly.
-
Treat LLMs as fallible.
They’re context-bound and can absolutely be wrong. Ask for references. Cross-check results. Never assume correctness by default.
-
Keep it task-based.
Request small, digestible outputs. Ask for a roadmap if you’re learning something - make sure it’s broken down into small, topic-based chunks with clear continuation paths. Ask what prerequisites you need before jumping in.
-
Be skeptical.
Don’t surrender your judgment. Question everything.
