AI Tools
Nowadays, AI has become more and more accurate, so I use "ChatGPT" to check various things. Sometimes I use it to check English grammar, which is very useful.

"TED Talks" where you can hear stories of individuals who poured passion into something and succeeded in their challenges, are very inspiring and lift my motivation. I was particularly impressed by the lecture given by sociologist Brené Brown on the themes of vulnerability and empathy.

Engineering Influencers
Mark Rober was a former NASA engineer turned creator. I admire how he uses is knowledge and experience in the engineering field to encourage engagement with STEM fields in the next generation. Also, I like that he is working to improve people's lives and our planet and even left behind a very lucrative career to pursue his passion while helping others.

Mechanical Design Engineer
EEVBlog has been a great resource as someone who is responsible for setting of test systems that involve electrical test equipment. His tear-downs of this equipment and other devices have helped me understand how this equipment works which transfers to a better understanding of what I'm measuring and how it is accomplished. This fundamental understanding of how the test equipment works helps me understand flaws and limitations of equipment and possible test setups while using these tools.

"An hour spent in the library is said to be worth a month spent in the lab" is a popular adage amongst engineers, but I believe that both approaches are important. First, you should try to solve the problem or conduct research on your own, then use available resources such as websites to obtain answers, and finally, revisit the issue and delve deeper to refine your understanding. I am always mindful of using a hybrid approach by repeating this process.

Patent-related Platforms
I recommend using technical patent
information as part of your study
materials. In addition to understanding the
approaches taken for a particular theme
and who is showing interest in that
technology, you can also learn company
strategies and industry trends.
While reading hundreds or even decades’
worth of patent-related information can be
challenging, it is fascinating due to the
myriad of discoveries available within this domain.
I often use sites like Google Patent or Espacenet.
These are just simple tools available to anyone,
but not everyone can push themselves to dive into this
research, which is difficult but ultimately very rewarding.
