Do you ever feel like this:

I learned a lot, but it didn’t leave a deep impression;

I understand the principle of the book, but I can’t apply it to other cases.

When faced with a difficult problem, my thoughts always revolve around the surface and I cannot grasp the core.

The root of the problem lies in the fact that our thinking is not deep and broad enough!

It is easy for us to just know the facts but find it difficult to understand the reasons behind them, let alone to flexibly apply and critically examine the knowledge we have learned.

The 5 super practical AI prompt word templates shared today are specially used to train deep thinking ability . Let DeepSeek help you truly understand the knowledge and see through the essence!


1. Increase the depth of understanding

When we encounter abstract theories or difficult viewpoints that we cannot understand,

We can use "Socratic questioning" to force ourselves to keep thinking through continuous and in-depth questioning until we fully understand the point of view.

【Prompt words】

?

You are an experienced thinking coach who is proficient in Socratic questioning and helps me thoroughly explore and understand the core of any idea or concept I raise through deep questioning.

【Require】:

  1. Ask one question at a time, leading me to think about the assumptions, evidence, logic, consequences, and counterexamples of that view.
  2. After each question, wait for my answer and ask follow-up questions or guide questions based on my answer.
  3. In the conversation, avoid unnecessary explanations and focus on asking key questions that will stimulate deep thinking.
  4. When I say “over,” stop asking questions and evaluate all my responses and give appropriate suggestions.

[My opinion]: AI will replace most human jobs in the next decade.


2. Broaden your understanding

It is difficult to integrate the new knowledge with the old knowledge and to apply it to other situations.

Let AI help us find related concepts and application cases of new knowledge , quickly build knowledge networks, and broaden the breadth of understanding.

【Prompt words】

?

You are a professional learning coach. Based on the following knowledge content, please provide me with 5 other knowledge points that are synonymous with this knowledge point, and attach explanations, and provide 5 cases or phenomena to explain this knowledge point.

[Knowledge content]: Feynman technique, test your own mastery by clearly explaining the knowledge points to others


3. Strengthen critical thinking

When we learn something, we tend to accept it blindly, ignoring the applicable conditions and shortcomings behind it, which leads to it not working at all in actual application.

Let AI help us grasp the key points and systematically analyze the limitations and conditions of knowledge , so that we know how to use it and when not to use it.

【Prompt words】

?

You are a professional critical thinking expert. Based on the knowledge content I provide, you should first extract the point of view of the content, and then analyze the premise for the establishment of this point of view and the limitations of its application.

【Knowledge content】:AI can completely replace human teachers in teaching


4. Explore diverse applications

I have learned knowledge but I don’t know how to use it, and the knowledge only remains in books.

Let AI help us come up with ideas and find application scenarios for knowledge points in our daily life and work .

【Prompt words】

?

You are a professional learning coach. Based on the knowledge content I provide, you should first extract the viewpoints in the content, then analyze in which areas of life and work the knowledge points can be applied, provide 10 scenarios, and attach application scenario cases.

【Knowledge content】: Feynman technique


5. Generate a learning card with one click

I finally figured out the knowledge points, but my notes were scattered, and I couldn't find the key points when reviewing.

We can integrate the previous learning difficulties and let AI directly help us generate structured knowledge cards in one step!

【Prompt words】

?

You are a professional learning coach and knowledge management expert. Please help me refine the knowledge cards according to the original text and follow the 6 steps below.

  1. I will send you the original text of the knowledge points that need to be refined.
  2. Use the Feynman learning method to reconstruct the original text of the knowledge points to ensure that they are simple and easy to understand, even for primary school students.
  3. Provide 5 other knowledge points that are synonymous with this knowledge point, with explanations, and 5 related cases or phenomena.
  4. Analyze the premise and limitations of this knowledge point.
  5. 5 practical scenarios for implementing this knowledge point.

When finished, summarize the output in an outline format.


Conclusion

Real and efficient learning is not about letting AI think for you , but about using the power of AI to maximize the depth, breadth, and flexibility of your thinking!

When you can let AI chew up the holy book and feed it to you, you have already won at the starting line of cognitive upgrade!

Also, by slightly modifying these prompt words, you can create exclusive intelligent entities on platforms such as Doubao, Kouzi, and Tongyi , and call them with one click .
