The only proper use i found for AI is making small interactive quiz of something i’m trying to memorise.
I’ve seen college/uni classes and chatgpt is everywhere. I had quite a few moment of reckoning witht that fact that this is the norm.
I was using Notability and it let me have a preview of that, and I tried it on a ~40+ page reading I had for class. I feel like it worked well at picking out trivia (‘what is the definition of x’, ‘who did this thing’, etc), but it felt pretty shallow. If you’re preparing for a multiple choice quiz or refamiliarizing yourself with something then I’d say it’s probably okay, but if you’re studying for the essay portion of a test it’s not enough.
AI is helpful for free response too in my experience and I get better grades than most of my class by using it to study (specifically I have OpenCode set up with all of the course material downloaded and accessible). It’s not really logically coherent and makes mistakes a lot, so you have to think about the information it’s giving you which ironically improves its study utility.
Absolutely, and the essay portion of any uni course is not even feasable for the average llm user, if they abuse that.
And if I had to do this side study with every thing i do i’d go mental.
