AI Notebook: Personalized Learning with AI

The challenge of learning with AI without depending on it

Today, many students use artificial intelligence (AI) to complete their assignments. The uncomfortable question is no longer “Did you do your homework?” but rather “Did you use ChatGPT to do it?”. Why does this happen? Because in most cases, students simply ask AI to solve the task without truly learning.

In forums and on social media, there’s a lot of debate about the impact of AI on education and the job market. However, very few talk about how to use it constructively. The problem isn’t that AI exists or that young people use it — it’s that they’re not taught to integrate it as a genuine learning tool. Instead, its use often remains superficial, as a shortcut that leaves no real mark on knowledge. AI Notebook aims to change that.

What is AI Notebook?

AI Notebook is a free and accessible methodology that teaches students of any level to integrate AI into their study process in an ethical, creative, and personalized way. It’s not about “doing the homework for you”, but about building — together with AI — a living, digital notebook organized by subject that becomes your personal learning memory.

Imagine having, all in one place:

• Your class notes.
• Step-by-step practical examples.
• Exam simulators tailored to your lessons.
• An assistant that remembers your subject’s context and responds accurately.

It’s not a shortcut to passing exams — it’s a study companion that fosters autonomy, organization, and critical thinking.

Why is AI Notebook different?

Because it focuses on the how. It’s not just another tool, but a clear method to use AI strategically in your daily learning.

It also shifts the perception that “AI can make you lazy” towards a vision where it enables deeper, more effective learning.

How AI Notebook works?

You can start using it today with any AI tool that allows context retention for the content you load into it.

If you have ChatGPT Plus, you can try the official AI Notebook by Notecraft GPT in the Explore section and experience the full version.

If you’re using the free version, no problem — the methodology is open, and you can apply it by following these steps:

1. Create a specific space for your subject and enable memory. Example: “Hi. This will be my smart notebook (AI Notebook) for Biology 2°A. Here I will record my notes, assignments, and evaluations. In the end, I’ll need your help to study for the exam.”
2. After each class, record what you learned — text, images, audio, or video — and add the date for better organization. Example: “Today we studied the carbon cycle. This is what I understood: [...]”
3. Do your assignments in the same space. Example: “This is the exercise we were given on food chains [...]”. You can also add study guides or exercises from your teacher. AI can help you solve them, explain them, or prepare based on them.
4. One week before the exam, activate review mode for the period. Example: “Prepare me for the exam based on everything we’ve covered in this chat. Ask me test-style questions, give me feedback, and explain if I get something wrong.”

Tip: If you reference external information, ask AI to label it as such so that when reviewing, you can distinguish between course content and additional material.
