Everyone,
Today I'm going to show you how to study with Gemini. These are some serious pro-tips, and I've packed everything in, so pay close attention. The way you study is about to change completely.
Have you ever heard of CoT, or Chain of Thought? It's okay if you haven't. It's currently the hottest concept among people who are serious about AI, considered the key secret to making AI smarter. But let's be honest, for someone who doesn't know how to code, even the name sounds a bit intimidating.
In this video, I'm going to show you the entire A-to-Z process of how I use Google Gemini to study this complex AI concept in a fun and easy way, almost like playing with it. This isn't just a video for conveying information. It's a proposal for a new 'method of learning' in the age of AI.
By the end of this video, you'll not only have an innovative study method to make any new knowledge your own using Gemini, but you'll also have a perfect understanding of what CoT is. The era of studying AI with AI starts right now.
- Getting Tutored by Gemini (Learning the CoT Concept)
Every learning journey begins with a good teacher. I assigned Gemini the role of a top AI expert and requested a one-on-one private tutoring session just for me.
"You are a top professor teaching AI at Stanford University. From now on, think of me as your student. Explain the concept of 'Chain of Thought (CoT)' based on the latest academic papers, but make it the easiest explanation in the world—so simple that even a non-developer from a liberal arts background with zero coding knowledge would have a 'eureka' moment. Instead of complex analogies, it would be great if you could explain it using a 'cooking recipe' as a metaphor."
I went beyond simply asking for information; I assigned it a persona, specified my knowledge level, and even suggested an analogy. Look at the results. Gemini began to explain in a calm, logical manner, just like a real professor. It brilliantly analogized CoT as 'the AI reading the recipe (the problem-solving process) out loud, step-by-step, before cooking a difficult dish (the question).' While older AIs would just plop the finished dish down, an AI using CoT cooks while organizing its thought process—"First, I'll prep the ingredients, then I'll make the sauce..."—which increases the probability of successfully cooking more complex dishes.
From a PM's perspective, this gives a crucial hint about how to collaborate with AI. It means we've moved beyond just demanding the final output from AI; we can now deliberate and review the process of reaching that output together. In any case, my conceptual understanding was a complete success.
- Checking Your Knowledge (Custom True/False Quizzes from the AI)
A great teacher doesn't just stop at explaining the concept. They always check if the student has understood it correctly. I assigned Gemini the role of a 'quiz master.'
"Professor, thank you for the explanation. To check if I've understood the CoT concept we just covered, please create 5 True/False quizzes for me. Make the first question very easy, but gradually increase the difficulty so that later questions have traps or require applying the concept to be solved, making them progressively more confusing."
Gemini immediately generated 5 custom True/False quizzes.
- CoT is a technique that makes the AI's response speed faster. (False) In fact, the thinking process can slow it down. This is a basic concept check.
- CoT prompting increases the likelihood that an AI can detect and correct its own logical errors, but if the initial prompt points in the wrong direction, it can actually lead to an even more incorrect answer. (True) This is a high-level application question that asks about both the advantages and limitations.
What do you think? These are well-designed questions that go beyond simple concept verification, making me think deeply about CoT's strengths and limitations. Through the quiz, I was able to gain a deeper, more three-dimensional understanding of CoT.
- Auditory Learning (The Potential and Limitations of Audio Overview)
Taking it one step further, I wanted to use this tutoring session during my spare time. For learning on the go, like during my commute or while working out. Google's other service, NotebookLM, has a fantastic feature called Audio Overview, which turns text into something like an AI podcast.
So I made the same request to Gemini. "Summarize our entire conversation about CoT so far into a 5-minute podcast script. Then, generate an audio file so I can listen to it immediately using the Audio Overview feature."
Gemini did a brilliant job creating the script. It was very natural, formatted like a Q&A between me and the AI professor. However, unfortunately, it seems the Audio Overview feature isn't fully integrated into the Gemini app yet. Generating the audio file took a very long time, and the result wasn't satisfactory.
From a PM's perspective, this shows that Google's various AI features are still fragmented. But on the other hand, it's also a strong sign that all these features will soon be integrated into Gemini. I'll cover 'Audio Overview' in more detail later in a video about NotebookLM.
- Visual Learning (Infographic Visualization)
If auditory learning is still a work in progress, we can turn to visual learning. A single picture can be more powerful than a thousand words. Especially for a PM with a design background like me, visualization is the most familiar way to learn.
"Create an infographic that explains the core concept, working principle, and benefits of CoT in a way that even a non-expert can understand at a glance. Use a simple and intuitive style, and use my channel's main color, orange, as an accent."
The result was truly amazing. Gemini visualized the core flow of CoT—'Question → Chain of Thought (Step 1, Step 2...) → Final Answer'—in a very clean diagram, using the orange accent color I requested. A concept that felt so complex was perfectly organized in my mind with this single image.
- The Ultimate Study Method? (The Failure of the Infographic + Q&A Feature)
Now, this is where I let my PM imagination run wild. I tried to apply the core concept of my channel, 'Vibecoding.' "Turn this infographic image itself into an 'interactive webpage' where I can click on a part I'm curious about, and the AI will provide a more detailed explanation of that part." I was imagining the ultimate study method: a 'living textbook' where the visual materials I created could communicate with the AI in real-time.
But... this, unfortunately, was a failure. Gemini politely declined, saying, "Creating an interactive webpage by adding interactive features to an image is currently beyond my capabilities." It seems we haven't reached the point where AI can perfectly combine images and code to create a complex interactive app 'in one go.' But I'm confident this, too, will be possible in a few months.
Conclusion: The Paradigm of Studying is Changing
So, what did you think? Today, we saw how to use Gemini not just as a simple search tool, but as a personal tutor, a custom quiz creator, and a visual designer. Of course, there were clear limitations, like with audio generation and interactive app creation, but one thing is certain: AI is fundamentally changing the paradigm of 'studying.'
We no longer need to struggle with rote memorization. We can leave the vast amounts of information to the AI. Instead, it has become far more important for us to develop the ability to play with knowledge: to ask the right questions to understand the essence of a concept, to internalize knowledge through quizzes, and to structure it with infographics.
I am certain that in the future, the way we study will fundamentally, and much more enjoyably, change because of AI. AI is the most powerful tool that will transform boring memorization subjects into exciting subjects of exploration.
