Using chat GPT as a thought partner helps in asking better questions rather than just finding answers. It serves as a tool to improve question-asking skills, similar to how Yo Yo Ma can extract beautiful music from a cello. Chat GPT can assist in anticipating and addressing potential queries, functioning as a training tool for developing better questioning strategies. It is a smart research assistant that excels in deductive analysis but lacks the ability to make leaps of logic outside the given domain. Its value decreases in specialized areas where it is often incorrect. However, even when wrong, it provides insights into its reasoning. The anecdote of a student confusing autonomy with anatomy illustrates how chat GPT can reveal patterns and potential limitations in its responses. The significance of asking good questions is highlighted as machines become capable of answering anything, making the edge lie in the ability to ask the most effective questions. The snip concludes with a query about learning to ask better questions.
