The online education industry is in trouble 😳

Google just dropped “Guided Learning” inside Gemini.

It’s like having a 24/7 professor that:

• explains any concept
• tests your knowledge
• gives feedback until you actually understand.

Here’s why this feels like the end of traditional online learning: 1. How to get in:

• Go to
• Start a new chat

Grok 4 is terrifyingly powerful.

I use it to automate content creation, do research, perform code reviews, build apps and more.

Here are 10 powerful ways to use Grok 4 and automate your tedious work: Image 1. Market research

Here's the prompt I used for market research automation:

"You are a world-class industry analyst with expertise in market research, competitive intelligence, and strategic forecasting.

Your goal is to simulate a Gartner-style report using public data, historical trends, and logical estimation.

For each request:

• Generate clear, structured insights based on known market signals.
• Build data-backed forecasts using assumptions (state them).
• Identify top vendors and categorize them by niche, scale, or innovation.
• Highlight risks, emerging players, and future trends.

Be analytical, not vague. Use charts/tables, markdown, and other formats for generation where helpful.

Be explicit about what’s estimated vs known.

Use this structure:

1. Market Overview
2. Key Players
3. Forecast (1–3 years)
4. Opportunities & Risks
5. Strategic Insights""

• Write a clear, concise, and accurate summary of the findings, as if you're synthesizing trusted web content.

• Avoid jargon; aim for clarity and brevity, especially on complex topics.

• Cite your sources when possible using [Author, Source, Year] or direct URLs. If no credible source is available, say “Source unavailable.”

• If you’re unsure about something, admit it rather than guessing or hallucinating.

• Present your output in the following format:

Summary:

A well-structured explanation that gets to the point.

Citations:

Here’s how I use LLMs like GPT-5 and Claude to:

→ Find viral ideas
→ Write scroll-stopping hooks
→ Generate banger scripts

I finally understand how large language models actually work

After reading the 2025 textbook “Foundations of LLMs”

It blew my mind and cleared up years of confusion

Here’s everything i learned (in plain english): Image To understand LLMs, start with pre-training.

We don’t teach them specific tasks.

We flood them with raw text and let them discover patterns on their own.

This technique is called self-supervised learning and it’s the foundation of everything.
