Use LLM. But do not let it be the sole source of your information for any particular field. I think it's one of the most important disciplines the younger generation - to be honest, all generations - will have to learn.

I have a rule for myself as a non-native English speaker: Any day I ask LLMs to fix my English, I must read 10 pages from traditionally published books (preferably pre-2023). Just to prevent LLM from dominating my language comprehension.



I use LLMs as a translation tool, and make sure to generate JSON flashcards.

Sometimes it is more important to get a point across in another language than it is to learn that language. Computers being automatable, you can use it to create a backlog for when you skipped learning so that you can maintain some control of your habit of not learning what you're saying.
