I wish there was a LLM tool to explore a topic recursively, as a tree or a mindmap. You would start with some high level concept (say "cryptography") then dig further and further to more specific topics.

I think that would be a way more natural way to explore than being stuck on the classic linear output of a LLM.

But AI will be better than you at those topics as well, and when someone needs an expert in that topic take a guess who will they approach in such scenario.

I don't think we are even that far when the complexity AI can handle surpasses 99.999% of what humans can handle, where AI make e.g. physics discoveries beyond the grasp of most humans and it will have to "dumb it down" when talking with humans -even physicists- but not with other AIs

That's it? It doesnt feel right. This feels good enough for a casual dinner table conversation and not much more.

Something that I have realized recently is that it has become so easy to get an answer to almost any question with the help of chatbots that its almost unnecessary to spend any effort thinking about the problem or the solution. I feel like before when I had to spend time researching a problem to find an answer I learned so many things around the topic itself which helped me understand the problem itself better and gained a deeper understanding. Today it feels like you can have an answer to the most complex questions you might have, yet you gain a superficial understanding of the topic and might forget about it quickly.

Personally I'm excited about these sorts of experiments. We all learn in different ways, and these sorts of techniques allow us to create "on-demand" syllabuses and lessons that fit our learning style and learning level.

It's not perfect, but I'm optimistic this will be a useful way to teach/learn in the future.

And, to be clear, I think this will be best utilized within a group/community setting. I don't think it will replace teachers or classrooms.

I'm all for this and I'm keen to try it. I certainly don't want to take away from sharing another neat use case for learning.

But

> What you get is a beautiful animation that is 100% accurate and free of hallucinations

100% free of hallucinations when you're not an expert that can check it is impossible. LLM hallucinations are an unsolved problem.

this is pretty cool! it feels very good for getting a brief summary/overview of something and getting a beginner's level grasp.

Open engine factory, stuff is flowing opposite direction of the conveyor belt it’s on. 100% accurate!

This is a great share, gonna come back to it.

Also worth mentioning that Matt Pocock has a /teach skill that creates interactive, learning sites for learning a new skill.

This guy is severely milking it now. If learning means building an inaccurate and incomplete understanding of the topic then go hog wild. Otherwise https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49209049 sums up my feelings about the author's attitude.
