Learning is not about what you put in, it is about what you can take out. It is also not zero-sum, but rather exists on a wide spectrum for any given knowledge

Learning is not about what you put in, it is about what you can take out. It is also not zero-sum, but rather exists on a wide spectrum for any given knowledge domain. A good idea could be to prompt the LLMs to keep quizzing you on what you have read and test on both recall and understanding. Also learning is not just about truth, it is about curiosity as well. The pop-sci metaphors could actually good for satisfying the curiosity of let's say a 10-year old. What to learn and how to learn is ultimately at the judgement of the learner. The better the judgement, the more the learner can stay closer to the exact scientific details.
