They shared a specific workflow: 1. Open any topic's documentation 2. Ask the agent to explain it like you're 5 3. If it's still unclear, ask for a different explanation 4. Have the agent organize the learning process into personal notes for you to add your own insights Their concluding thought: if AI agents aren't driving the accumulation of human knowledge, we're using them wrong.
