The Fractal Reading Revolution [Part 3 of 4]

Here's where everything changed for me.

I started using Google NotebookLM as my reading coach. I upload PDFs. I transcribe YouTube videos. I feed it everything about a topic.

Then I ask it to teach me.

Not just summaries. Real teaching. It asks me questions. It tests my understanding. It connects ideas across different sources.

Remember my three-step method? AI supercharges each step.

Step 1 becomes: AI finds the best interviews, reviews, and summaries. Then creates a custom brief just for me.

Step 2 becomes: AI tells me exactly which sections to read based on my goals. No more guessing.

Step 3 becomes: AI helps me go deeper. It explains complex ideas in simple terms. It gives me examples that make sense.

But here's the best part. I can talk to it during my commute. Voice chat turns dead time into learning time.

Now, I'm having conversations with an AI that knows everything about the topic I want to learn about and I can take the learning in the direction that I want.

Powerful.

I use every tool available. I don't just want to read faster. I want to learn better, think clearer, and apply smarter.
