AI starter kit for study & learning
Whether you're revising for exams or learning something just for fun, AI can act like a patient tutor that never gets tired of questions. It can turn your notes into a study guide, explain a topic at exactly your level, or quiz you until it sticks. Check your school or university's rules on AI first, and always do the thinking yourself.
Where should I start?
If you want AI to help with study & learning, start with ChatGPT or NotebookLM – both have free plans – and try these three beginner-friendly tasks first: turn your notes into a study guide and podcast; get any topic explained simply; practise a new language by chatting.
