// WHY_LEARN_THIS?
So many books, so little time.
The Experiment: I asked ChatGPT to design a strict 24-hour crash course to learn Speed Reading. I stripped away the fluff. This is the raw data on how to go from Zero to Glitch in one day.
// THE_FIRST_HOUR
Most people quit in the first 45 minutes. Here is the exact starting instruction to survive:
"Using a pacer (your finger). eyes follow movement naturally."
// THE_AI_PROMPT
// THE_SCHEDULE
| Timeframe | Module | Objective |
|---|---|---|
| Hour 0-2 Setup |
Foundation & Mechanics | Using a pacer (your finger). eyes follow movement naturally. |
| Hour 2-6 The Grind |
The Grind | Drills & Repetition. Build muscle memory. |
| Hour 6-12 Application |
Application | First real attempts using Book + Finger. |
| Hour 12-18 Debug |
Troubleshooting | Pitfall Avoidance: Subvocalization. Saying the words in your head slows you down. |
| Hour 18-24 Mastery |
The Final Project | Execute: Read a 300 page book in 2 hours and summarize it |
Subvocalization. Saying the words in your head slows you down.
Read the first and last sentence of paragraphs to get the gist.
// THE_GLITCH_TASK
To prove completion, I must execute this specific anomaly:
"Read a 300 page book in 2 hours and summarize it"
// CONCLUSION
Can AI teach Speed Reading? It provided the map, but the Subvocalization. Saying the words in your head slows you down. was a real human struggle. The result? Learned enough to be dangerous.
