Traditional research is slow: 传统研究很慢：

Traditional | 传统方式:
Find papers (2h) → Read (4h) → Extract key points (2h) → Synthesize (3h)
找论文(2h) → 阅读(4h) → 提取要点(2h) → 综合(3h)
Total: 11+ hours | 总计：11+小时

AI-Assisted | AI辅助:
AI finds papers (10min) → AI summarizes (15min) → You verify (1h) → AI helps synthesize (30min)
AI找论文(10min) → AI总结(15min) → 你验证(1h) → AI帮助综合(30min)
Total: 2 hours | 总计：2小时

AI doesn't replace your thinking—it amplifies it! AI不是替代你的思考——而是放大它！
