How to Study Smarter with Cited AI Chat

Exam prep fails when AI answers sound confident but cannot point to your actual course materials. Cited chat fixes that by retrieving passages from your library before generating a response.

Before a study session, upload or confirm your core sources: slides, problem sets, and reading notes. Group them in a project so retrieval stays focused.

Ask specific questions: “Walk me through this proof using my uploaded lecture notes” beats “Explain calculus.” Specificity improves retrieval quality and citation relevance.

When you get an answer, click through citations. If a source is missing, upload it — do not accept uncited synthesis for graded work.

Close the loop by generating flashcards or a quiz from the same sources. Retrieval, explanation, and active recall should share one knowledge graph.
