Deep Research with ChatGPT: How to Go Beyond the Basics
Deep Research with ChatGPT: How to Go Beyond the Basics
While ChatGPT is known for quick answers, it’s also an effective tool for deep research- if you know how to prompt it. For example, when researching a topic like "climate adaptation careers," prompt it with: “Act as a research assistant and provide a literature summary of the top 5 current trends in climate adaptation careers. Cite real sources or recommend where I can verify the data.” You can also ask it to generate outlines, compare arguments, or suggest expert sources to explore further. For academic support, pair it with Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/) and ask ChatGPT to help you summarize or brainstorm research questions based on peer-reviewed articles. This is a great tool for students or job seekers exploring niche fields.
