Are you still struggling with complex and difficult concepts on your own? With Google Gemini, you can have a personal AI tutor by your side 24/7. In today's video, I'll reveal the entire 5-step process I use to study Chain of Thought (CoT)—the hottest concept among AI experts—in a fun and easy way using Gemini. From getting conceptual explanations from the AI to taking customized quizzes and even visualizing information with infographics, this one video will completely change your study paradigm.

Today, I'm going to show you how to study with Gemini. This is a real game-changer, and I've included all the details, so pay close attention. The way you study is about to change forever.
Have you ever heard of CoT, or Chain of Thought? It's okay if you haven't. It's the hottest concept right now among those who use AI seriously, considered a key secret to making AI smarter. But honestly, for someone who doesn't know how to code, even the name sounds a bit intimidating.
In this video, I'll show you the entire process, from A to Z, of how I use Google Gemini to study this complex AI concept while having fun and playing around with it. This isn't just an informational video. It's a proposal for a new 'learning method' in the age of AI.
By the end of this video, you will have a revolutionary study method to make any new knowledge your own using Gemini, and you'll fully understand what CoT is. The era of studying AI with AI starts right now.
- Getting Tutored by Gemini (Learning the CoT Concept)
Every learning journey begins with finding a good teacher. I assigned Gemini the role of a top AI expert and requested a one-on-one private tutoring session just for me.
"You are a top professor teaching AI at Stanford University. From now on, think of me as your student. Explain the concept of 'Chain of Thought (CoT)' based on the latest academic papers, but make it the easiest explanation in the world—so simple that a non-developer from a liberal arts background with zero coding knowledge would have a 'eureka' moment. Instead of a difficult analogy, it would be even better if you could explain it using a 'cooking recipe' analogy."
I didn't just ask for information; I assigned a persona, specified my knowledge level, and even suggested an analogy. Look at the result. Gemini began explaining calmly and logically, just like a real professor. It brilliantly analogized CoT to 'an AI reading a recipe (the problem-solving process) out loud, step-by-step, before tackling a difficult dish (the question).' While older AIs would just serve up the finished dish, an AI using CoT cooks while organizing its thought process—"First, I'll prep the ingredients, then I'll make the sauce..."—which increases its chances of success with more complex dishes.
From a PM's perspective, this gives a crucial hint about how to collaborate with AI. It means we can now not only ask for the final output but also discuss and review the process of reaching that output together. For now, concept comprehension is a complete success.
- Checking My Knowledge (Customized True/False Quiz from the AI)
A great teacher doesn't just stop at explaining a concept. They always check if the student has understood it properly. I assigned Gemini the role of a 'quiz master'.
"Thank you for the explanation, Professor. To check if I've understood the CoT concept we just covered, please create a 5-question true/false quiz. Make the first question very easy, but gradually increase the difficulty so that later questions have tricks or require applying the concept to be solved."
Gemini immediately created a 5-question customized true/false quiz.
- CoT is a technique that makes an AI's response time faster. (False) In fact, the thinking process can slow it down. This is a basic concept check.
- CoT prompting increases the likelihood that an AI will detect and correct its own logical fallacies, but if the initial prompt points in the wrong direction, it can lead to an even more incorrect answer. (True) This is a high-level application question that asks about both the advantages and limitations.
What do you think? These are well-designed questions that go beyond simple concept verification, making me think about the strengths and weaknesses of CoT. Through the quiz, I was able to gain a deeper, more multi-dimensional understanding of CoT.
- Auditory Learning (The Potential and Limits of Audio Overview)
Taking it a step further, I wanted to use this tutoring session during my spare moments. You know, learning by listening during my commute or while working out. Another Google service, NotebookLM, has an amazing feature called Audio Overview, which turns text into something like an AI podcast.
So, I made the same request to Gemini. "Summarize our entire conversation about CoT so far into a 5-minute podcast script. Then, generate an audio file so I can listen to it immediately using an audio overview feature."
Gemini did an excellent job creating the script. It was very natural, formatted as a Q&A between me and the AI professor. However, unfortunately, it seems the audio overview feature isn't fully integrated into the Gemini app itself yet. Generating the audio file took a very long time, and the result wasn't satisfactory.
From a PM's perspective, this shows that Google's various AI features are still fragmented. But on the flip side, it's also a strong indicator that all these features will soon be integrated into Gemini. I'll show you more about this 'Audio Overview' in a future video about NotebookLM.
- Visual Learning (Infographic Visualization)
If auditory learning is still a work in progress, we can turn to visual learning. A single picture is often more powerful than a hundred words. Especially for a PM like me with a design background, visualization is the most familiar way to learn.
"Create an infographic that explains the core concept, working principle, and benefits of CoT in a way that even a non-expert can understand at a glance. Use a simple and intuitive style, and feature my channel's main color, orange, as an accent."
The result was truly amazing. Gemini visualized the core flow of CoT—'Question → Chain of Thought (Step 1, Step 2...) → Final Answer'—in a very clean diagram, using the orange accent I requested. A concept that felt so complex was perfectly organized in my mind with this single image.
- The Ultimate Study Method? (Failure of Infographic + Q&A Feature)
Now, this is where I flexed my PM imagination. I tried to apply the core concept of my channel, 'Vibecoding'. "Turn this infographic image itself into an 'interactive webpage' where I can click on a part I'm curious about, and the AI will explain that part in more detail." I was imagining the ultimate study method: a 'living textbook' where the visuals I create could communicate with the AI in real-time.
But... unfortunately, this failed. Gemini politely declined, saying, "Adding interactive functionality to an image to create a webpage is currently beyond my capabilities." It seems AI hasn't yet reached the point where it can perfectly combine images and code to create a complex interactive app 'in one go.' However, I'm confident that this too will be possible within a few months.
Conclusion: The Paradigm of Studying Is Changing
So, what did you think? Today, we've seen how to use Gemini not just as a simple search tool, but as a personal tutor, a custom quiz creator, and a visual designer. Of course, there were clear limitations, like with audio generation and interactive app creation, but one thing is certain: AI is fundamentally changing the paradigm of 'studying'.
We no longer need to struggle with rote memorization. We can entrust vast amounts of information to AI. Instead, what has become far more important is our ability to play with knowledge: the ability to ask the right questions to understand the essence of concepts, to internalize knowledge through quizzes, and to structure it with infographics.
I am certain that in the future, the way we study will fundamentally and much more enjoyably change because of AI. AI is the most powerful tool to transform boring memorization-based subjects into exciting subjects of inquiry.
