"The key to effective reading is to start with the summary of the core ideas and then gradually add details, layer by layer." Definitely true.

@kalyasaify Жыл бұрын

yes!!! unfortunately lol ^^ it sucks having a neurospicy detail oriented brain that needs those infos first to even grasp the topic and to see the big picture 👁👄👁 struggling hard to condition myself into being able to do it the other way tbh, not sure if it's even possible.

Hey Artem, how are you? You haven't posted in a while! Just wanted to say that this channel made me discover computational neuroscience, and influenced a lot of my interests as a biomedical sciences student. I hope to pursue a master's in the field one day. Cheers!

1:02 THIS is exactly what I always asked my teachers for and what I still critizise about the school system: You get teached all these results from adult-thinking humans and are expected to realize what its good for, why you do it like this, how you come up with this, etc. But as a child-thinking human you're building up a model of the world and need a trunk before the branches and branches before the leafes. But we get handed leaf after leaf and are supposed to realize the branches and trunks they are based on. I want school to explain what is teached and why (where do i need it, what can i do with it), give me an overview about what will follow and how the things will relate to each other - THEN you can teach me all the things because then I know how to learn them and where to put them in my mind. It would be SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT. I *ASKED* for it so many times!

You're absolutely correct, but they just.. can't. Even if we ignore everything specific about teachers, most HUMANS cargo cult, not understand. I mean, just look at the educational KZbin/Medium, most of it is mindless regurgitation. Or AI "research" - it's useless imitation by those who couldn't care less in hopes to get hired by managers/founders who in turn themselves are mindless copycats. We're privileged, however, to have amazing teachers like 3b1b, Jeremy Howard, AlphaPhoenix, Artem, who get deep into their favorite subjects, and share their universe with us.

Can you give a specific example? In my mind this is exactly how the education system works... For example - you learn that there are fundamental building blocks of matter called atoms. There are a distinct "versions" of matter known as elements and they are defined by their weight. Then you learn well actually they are defined by the number of protons they have which are one of 3 particles - protons electrons and neutrons. A specific element has a certain number of protons and neutrons which make up its center (nucleus) and electrons which fly around it like planets orbiting a star. Well actually - a certain element can have a variable amount of neutrons and weigh slightly more or less than the "perfect" version of it. Oh yea and also we can have a variable number of electrons. Oh also, we lied about electrons too, they do not orbit a nucleus like a planet, at all now you need to learn quantum mechanics. Every step of the way, slightly more complexity is added. This is exactly what the speaker in this video is saying to do. Can you provide a counter example?

MONTHS, literally over a year after originally watching this, amidst SO MANY life events, I have come to better understand your book summaries -> atomic ideas flow and it actually makes sense. this is off the top of me originally learning about book notes from ali abdaal and Elizabeth filips, as well as aidan helfant, and I'm so freaking excited to finally understand them better I think. This is like a saber to my pile of book highlights I have no particular obligation to process but that I want to at my leisure at some point thank you for existing.

Nice idea and sure there are benefits but for a casual reader/learner Shortform even with discounts is just FAR too expensive as an ongoing subscription!! I understand there is ongoing input to the summaries as new books are added and this costs… maybe for full time researchers / businesses it’s fine … but I think I’ll stick with the more reasonably priced Blinkist This aside … I very much enjoy your videos Artem! Keep em coming!

@nothinginteresting1662 3 ай бұрын

That's why, I see subjects as a network of concepts. And each concept may have its own subnetwork of even more fundamental concepts. And it can go on... This idea of network is very useful. Even a complex system can be thought of as made up of a network of sub-systems. And each sub-system may be made up of a network of sub-sub-systems...That's why complexity science is network science.

Hey Artem, I just discovered your channel, and damn, I found a gem in a mountain of stones. This video into your knowledge parsing process was clear and insightful. I learned a ton. I just have a few questions. Pls consider answering them if you have the time. 1. While this does seem like spoon feeding, I would so love to see how you refactor your highlights and notes from shortform into your notes for the book. 2. You said you were using stack system for 2 years now. When you have like hundreds or even thousands of atomic ideas, how do you remember this particular topic I have already made a note of, especially when your knowledge base contains notes from 5 different fields or somehting along those lines. Thank you for taking the time to make such an useful video. I look forward to learning more from you.

You explained that you create "ghost"-tags manually for ideas and turn them into MOCs later, but this doesn't make use of the obsidian tags, obviously.. do you just ignore them?

Could you make a video about effective learning strategies? When diving into a new topic it can often be difficult to apply interleaving and elaboration because they require some level of *planning*. I added elaboration because it requires a direction or goal with what you are learning. Yes you can choose and modify a goal, but how much time is that wasting as a self learner? I wonder what are effective adaptive measures of self learnings

Nice work. Does the AI summary feature of KZbin videos also work on mobile (in the KZbin app itself)? Or only in the browser?

@tadghcr2175 Жыл бұрын

Browser extensions typically only work in-browser. Some mobile browsers offer developers the ability to provide the same extensions on mobile. (Some currently do this, some plan to do this. I'd research your browser and see if it's doing this. If Shortform has their extension on mobile, hopefully you'd be able to use it that way.)
