The speaker explains that they don't use AI tools because their learning style involves using physical materials like printed research papers and books. They prefer taking notes on cards and organizing them in a notebox. They find that AI tools like chatbots don't provide deep explanations and only offer surface-level understanding. However, they do find value in using AI tools like GPT models for Socratic-style conversations, where the AI asks questions and challenges their understanding. The speaker is a 17-year-old from Ottawa, Canada, who is taking a gap year to explore their interest in artificial intelligence. You mentioned that you don't really use AI tools because you found that they don't work with your your style of learning as the style of learning you have. Can you just explain that? Yeah So I do a lot of my learning in analog and that means on actual paper And so if I'm reading something normally I'll print it out So if I'm reading a research paper, I'll print it out. If I'm reading a book I'm normally reading a physical book instead of a PDF of a book. If I'm reading a Wikipedia page I often print it out as well. So there's a lot of I do a lot of my learning through physical space and taking notes on and writing down ideas and questions on little cards and then I organize those cards in a notebox in a specific way and If you're more curious about that then look up Zettelkasten, which is German for notebox But it's you can spell it Z-E-T-T-E-L-K-A-S-T-E-N So that's a method but I don't actually use That many I don't think I use AI tools that much Like using I don't use chat2t to explain things to me because I find the explanations that it gives are they don't actually dig deeper into the the actual Subject and doesn't actually broaden my understanding. It gives me a more or deepens my understanding. It gives me a more superficial surface level understanding of what's actually happening. A lot of learning for me is Wrestling with ideas. I don't understand and struggling to understand them and that's what actually makes them stick and so if I have something that explains a really complex idea and In Really simple Terms that reduce the idea to practically nothing. I don't actually find that useful I think there are some for example conmigo. I have not used but I see that being more useful than Having concepts explained to you having someone that guides you and asks you questions that is one use that I've used for like AI I Guess you could call it AI tools is when I come up with an idea. I Not often but sometimes get GFT model to act I Describe it as a Socratic so that it asks me questions and challenges my understanding And so then we just have a conversation where it asks me a question. I try to answer his questions It refutes my answer. I try to refute its answer. It refutes my answer I try to refute its answer So then we have this back and forth and that and that actually broadens my understanding because it's just asking questions It's not explaining things to me, right? so like if It's different than if you were How to write something like someone said write an essay Yeah, it's the main the key difference is that when something is explaining it to you You're not the one the learning isn't coming from you It's coming from someone else when someone is asking you questions and you're operating at the edge of your capabilities to answer those questions For something that you barely understand then the learning is coming from you instead of someone else Hello, I'm Nicholas Jesse, I am 17 years old and I'm from Ottawa, Canada I'm currently taking a gap year to just explore my fascinations in artificial intelligence
