Ask an LLM to teach you about:

- Limits of math/CS: Incompleteness → computability → complexity → Kolmogorov complexity.
- Physics: Classical chaos → fluids/turbulence → QFT basics → quantum gravity puzzles.
- Inference: Graphical models → causal DAGs/ID algorithms → experiments under interference.
Choose one of these highly complex topics and engage the model to help you deepen your understanding. Keep asking questions and refining your knowledge until the concept becomes clear. This process will not only help you grasp challenging subjects, but also teach you how to learn—an invaluable skill for tackling difficult concepts.
