How Deep Research Works

Professor High uses an advanced AI architecture with autonomous tool calling:
  1. Your question is analyzed to determine what information is needed
  2. Web search is conducted across cannabis databases, research papers, dispensary sites, and educational resources
  3. Multiple sources are synthesized into a coherent, comprehensive answer
  4. Citations are attached so you can verify every claim
  5. Follow-ups are generated based on what would naturally come next in the conversation
This process happens in real-time with results streaming as they become available.

Tips

Be specific for better answers. Instead of “Tell me about sativas,” try “What sativa strains with high limonene are good for daytime focus and energy?” The more context you provide, the more targeted the response.
Use follow-up suggestions to explore topics you had not considered. Professor High often surfaces interesting angles you might not have thought to ask about.
Check the sources. Professor High cites its information, so you can verify claims against the original source material. This is especially important for medical-related questions.
Professor High provides educational information only and is not a substitute for medical advice. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using cannabis for medical purposes.
