I think you might be missing out on AI's incredible ability to arrange information. I started to read the article on this post, then got annoyed by the length and wandering prose, so I asked Gemini to rewrite it for readability. The result was 10x easier to parse.

Similarly, you can try something like:

> Break down aspects of the economy by amenability to state control high/medium/low, based on what we see in successful economies. Include a rationale and supporting evidence/counterexamples. Present it in 3 tables.

It should give you dozens of things you can look up. Eg it might mention successful Singapore and Vienna-style public housing, and there are some nice videos on that on Youtube. Teach your kids how to do nuanced large-scale research, while everyone else is at "communism is bad".

The bot might also miss something, or get something wrong, and they should be able to catch it. I think auditing LLM output will be very important in the future.
