What if we told you there is a new study tool that can guarantee you an A on your finals this semester? It’s not pulling an all-nighter or having to rewrite all of your notes, but AI. Generative AI language models, such as Chat-GPT, have exploded in use around college campuses within the past year. But have you heard of using it to help study for exams? Rather than just using it to do your homework for you, generative AI can be a great tool to study for your next exam.
Study Smarter Not Harder
With generative AI language models’ abilities growing every day they are quickly becoming a great study resource. Rather than spending hours rereading your notes or lecture slides, you can upload them into sites like Chat-GPT and have it create study resources for you. Taking this approach to using AI actually requires you to actively engage with the material which leads to having a more in depth understanding of it.

How To Actually Use AI
AI has so many possible functions that trying to figure out how to best utilize it when studying can seem rather daunting. But don’t fret, VALLEY has you covered with some of our favorite ways to use tools like Notebook LM when studying. Notebook LM is Google’s new generative AI-powered notebook that is designed to transform how you interact with your notes and encourage critical thinking while studying. The site works by uploading your notes or readings and it generates a wide variety of study resources for you based on them.
Summaries
One possible resource Notebook LM can make for you is a cohesive summary of your notes and readings. This can be an extremely helpful tool for when you are in a time crunch and unable to go back and look over every slide or reread all of your readings before an exam. Notebook LM even has a feature that can create a podcast of two people explaining the content that you uploaded!
Personalized Study Guides
Another helpful resource Notebook LM can create based on your notes and readings is personalized study guides. Is there a certain area that you are struggling with the most that you would like to practice? All you have to do is specify what topics you would like to be included the most in your study guide.
Live Office Hours
Still, have questions about a certain topic while studying? Don’t worry Notebook LM also has a live Q and A feature. All you have to do is type your question into the chat and within a couple of seconds the site will not only be able to answer your question but also provide an explanation as to why this is the answer. It’s almost like virtual office hours!

AI Can’t Do It All
Although AI can be an extremely helpful tool when studying, it’s important to remember that it can’t do everything. Generative AI tools, like Chat GPT and Notebook LM, can’t replace actual studying or the critical thinking that goes along with it. Rather, it can be a tool used to aid in the process. Instead of using Chat GPT to write your essays or solve your math homework for you, having it help improve your study habits will benefit you and your academics the most in the long run.
