I wanted to document this largely for myself (and because other folks have asked me this question), so I ended up writing a blog post on it: https://adamtaylor.me/posts/how-i-use-ai
I hope that doesn't run afoul of self-promotion rules. I just thought it'd be nice to have this answer somewhere it can evolve over time.
AI as a replacement of Google. When I wanted to learn about something the usual path was: google it. Go through dozens of links, discard, filter the good ones, read them, and gain the knowledge.
Nowadays I ask the question to the LLM and for every answer I demand the links/urls where the LLM get the info from. I still read the referenced web sites. It’s faster.
