Use the Feynman technique with AI as your audience
4
Try explaining what you just learned back to the AI in your own words, then ask it to identify gaps or errors in your explanation. This is the Feynman technique — if you cannot explain it simply, you do not truly understand it.
Why It Works
Teaching forces you to organize knowledge and reveals gaps that passive reading misses. The AI acts as a patient, knowledgeable audience that catches misconceptions instantly.
Tips
- Start with "Let me explain what I understand about X, and tell me where I am wrong"
- This works especially well for complex topics like science, economics, or programming concepts
- Ask the AI to rate your explanation on a scale of 1-10 for accuracy and clarity
