"Use AI as a patient tutor for complex unfamiliar topics Mathematician Emily Riehl described struggling to keep up with a vast, fast-moving field where even experts cannot read everything published in their own subfield. She found that AI tools solved a specific bottleneck: 'I learned from ChatGPT o3 what hypercaloric geometry is, which is something I could have gotten a human expert and pestered them, but they would have gotten annoyed with me much more rapidly than the AI tool did.' Unlike a busy colleague, an AI tutor tolerates unlimited follow-up questions without frustration, making it uniquely suited for filling knowledge gaps in any demanding field.
