It doesn't matter if it's general, what matters is that its useful. And if you don't find it useful just remember a lot of people in the 00s didn't find google useful either since they already had the yellow pages.

Buy the subscription and use the turbo4 model.
After that api credits so you get access to the playground and change the system prompt. It makes a huge difference if you don't want to chat for 10 minutes before you get the result you want.
Learning what quickly exactly?
