Gen AI can act as your personal research assistant, helping you tackle complex topics in a fraction of the time.  In this mini-episode, we are joined by Inventium’s GenAI guru Neo Aplin to unpack the power of “deep research.” Neo explains how AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini can scan hundreds of sources, summarise key insights, and create detailed reports - all in a matter of minutes.  Today we learn:  What deep research is and how it works  The Gen AI tools that offer deep research (and Neo’s go-to choice)  Why you need to co-create the research plan with AI for the best results  Tips for writing prompts that get you better outcomes when undertaking deep research  Key quotes: “It’s like outsourcing four hours of online digging in five minutes.” “The better the background and context you can give, the better the results.” “Review everything. Click on it. Make sure it’s correct. But you’ll get a super-detailed report that saves you hours.”    My latest book The Health Habit is out now.
