How to learn things by yourself
Subdividing your topic
Use a LLM like chatgpt to subdivide your topic, this helps making what you need to learn more clearer and concrete.
Some prompts:
- “Tell me the main topics of X”.
- “Subdivide X into as many topics as possible”.
- “For everything i say here, make me a list of topics i have to learn with [ ] on each one, be as specific as possible”(my particular one, but you can test each and see what’s best).
Then you use the output as a checklist.
