Quick Learning: How to Absorb More from Books and Videos in Less Time

Introduction AI Summary Generators

Welcome to a new way of learning! Have you ever wondered how much you actually remember from the books you read? Usually, it's just bits and pieces, right? Well, what if I told you that you could get the gist of thousands of books every year without reading them cover to cover? In this guide, I'll show you a quick and smart method to grasp the main ideas from both books and YouTube videos using ChatGPT. This approach is perfect for those who love to learn but don't have hours to spend reading or watching videos. Let's dive into how you can become a super learner with this innovative technique!

Part 1: Read 3000 Books Annually with ChatGPT

Think about reading books: what do you really remember?

After reading a good book, I can recall the main points and themes for about a week. In a year, I remember only a few facts. After ten years, I hardly remember anything. Even though we build knowledge over time, we forget most of what we read.

That's why I think reading non-fiction just for key points and concepts is the best way to learn from books. With the method I'm going to show you, you can understand and remember information from more than 1000 books a year.

Note that this method isn't for traditional book reading; it's for people who love learning quickly. Remember, it's not the same as reading a whole book. It's just for getting the main ideas.

Let me explain how it works.

Step 1: Summary

First, ask GPT to give you a detailed summary of the book you're thinking about. Here's my way to get a good basic summary:

Please summarize the book [Insert Book Title] in great detail.

Let’s try “How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie.

This step helps ChatGPT understand the summary better and improves its responses later in the conversation. It's also a good introduction to the book's ideas. With the summary in mind, let's move on to the main part of this process.

Step 2: Custom Request

This step makes things more practical and personalized for you. It's the most important part of the process.

Please adjust the book's lessons to suit my needs. I am a [Insert Brief Personal Bio]. Could you ask me some questions to get more details from me before you begin?

This prompt helps ChatGPT gather key information from you to tailor its suggestions. It also simplifies the book's content, focusing on giving you the most important information you're likely to remember.

Let’s see what I got from ChatGPT:

I've answered its questions, and here's a sample from the many suggestions it gave:

This shows how I can use what I learned from the book in my life, which really helps me remember it better.

Step 3: Insurance Coverage

Now, after it has shared insights on how you can use the book's concepts in your life, you should make sure it hasn't missed anything important to you. So, we use this prompt:

Could you suggest any other important concepts from the book that I should be aware of?

Here’s its answer:

You should write down the key points or interesting information that you want to remember for later. If you simply skim through ChatGPT's responses, you won't retain much information, so taking notes is really important.

Step 5: Take a Break and Review

Now that you've learned and understood the key ideas of the book and how they apply to you, let's move on to an important step: remembering.

All of this wouldn't be useful if you forgot everything later. That's why we can use one of ChatGPT's strengths—conversation.

Set a reminder for one or two months in the future to come back to this chat and refresh your memory about the content. When you return to the chat after some time has passed, start with this:

Can you create a short quiz for me to test my understanding of the book concepts, considering it's been [A] months since we discussed it?

Here’s an example:

Try answering the questions as best as you can to see your score.

This can really do a lot in a short time. It's incredible how much you can learn quickly.

I just found out about this way of learning, but I think it's going to change how I read books. Plus, it's a great way to brush up on books I haven't thought about in a while!

Part 2: Get Quick Information from YouTube videos with AI Summarizers

You are researching a topic, and there are several videos on YouTube about that topic. Each video is about 20–30 minutes long, and you might not have the time to sit and watch all those videos, filtering out the useful information. So, what should you do?

I will show you how to combine a 'Chrome Extension Summary' with ChatGPT to extract key points from a specific video.

Step 1: Add 'YouTube Summary with ChatGPT & Claude' to your Chrome

Step 3: Insurance Coverage

Could you suggest any other important concepts from the video that I should be aware of?

Here’s my example:

Step 4: Taking Notes

And don't forget to note down the above ideas; you can find other videos on the same topic to continue gathering information.

Conclusion

So, that's it! This method is a fast, smart way to learn from books and YouTube videos. Instead of reading a whole book or watching long videos, you use ChatGPT and a Chrome extension to get the main ideas quickly. First, you get a summary, then personalize it, and finally, make sure you've covered everything important. Writing notes and taking quizzes help you remember better. This approach saves time and lets you learn a lot without spending hours reading or watching videos. It's a great tool for anyone who loves learning but is short on time.
