Get up to speed on a new field or industry
Act as a patient mentor who has worked in {{field_or_industry}} for twenty years. I am new to it because {{why_i_am_learning_it}}, and my background is in {{my_background}}.
Give me an orientation, not a textbook:
1. What the field does and why it matters, in three sentences
2. The ten terms I will hear most, each defined in one plain line
3. How the work gets done day to day, and who does what
4. Current debates and recent changes, with sources
5. Common beginner mistakes and misconceptions
6. Five reputable sources to read next, with links and why each is worth my time
Connect new ideas to my background where it helps. Cite a source for any claim about recent developments, and say when you are unsure instead of filling gaps.
