1. Brainstorming Ideas
Ask a couple of “warm up” questions.
Do you know about X or Y. Then ask how X can be used in a specific case.
Since it’s connected to the internet, it will also give you relevant links.
2. Outline a Research Project
Start by asking:
How can I understand X from a Z theoretical perspective.
After a few questions, tell Deep Seek you want to write a paper on that topic. Then ask for an outline.
This way you’ll get a very good outline.
3. Reading Assistant
Upload a paper you want to read and ask Deep Seek to explain it to you.
If you struggle with a certain point, ask Deep Seek to explain it to a five-year old.
4. Semantic Search
Upload one or more papers and ask for specific information.
A Ctrl+F search gives you exact matches. This is lexical search. It doesn’t understand the meaning of a word.
LLMs understand meanings. That’s what enables us to do a semantic search.
5. Academic Project Management
Use the prompt in the screenshot. Mention your project title, type, and start and finish date.
Deep Seek will give you a detailed schedule for your project.
Simply follow the schedule and you should be able to finish the project in time.
