I think not doing the proof exercises is problematic. Just understanding some concepts on how to vaguely go from A to B isn't really enough for math, need to be able to come up with how to do it. That is the hardest part in self-study, because skipping is easier than in some class or seminar setting (and if not in a group can also not discuss problems and see how other people approach them).
- j7ake 3y agoTraditional self study is difficult and filled with roadblocks because you have no one to ask for help. Chatgpt helps remove these roadblocks so you get shown the way and then figure out how it was done after.
- RandomLensman 3y agoI think that is problematic for math because figuring out the way is the math. Need to be super disciplined not to ask chatGPT questions that go far into that territory but rather present it with a way devised and then discuss (if possible).
- thethimble 3y agoOf course passively reading ChatGPT transcripts isn’t going to help you master math. But equally problematic is the said roadblocks that - prior to ChatGPT - simply led many learners to stop learning. We finally have a mechanism to adjust difficulty level to the mastery level of the learner. This is fantastic.
- znpy 3y agoI never bothered with chatgpt and the whole ai craze, but now I’m curious… thank you!
- MichaelRazum 3y agoTrue. Without exercises I would say you learned close to nothing.
