Is there any technique/guide so I know better when I have to apply a certain method?

I need it for exercises bc lots of times can't solve them and don't know what to do

honestly chatgpt isnt great for a lot of higher maths stuff even with simple stuff like creating questions

#

i havent been able to find much of a use for it in anything myself

#

you could try it to see what methods it uses but dont take it for gospel as its wrong kinda often so make sure you comb through and check everything was done correctly by it

I think you're better off learning and seeking examples from resources online, given how easily we can access them nowadays (especially for calculus).
As Kyle mentioned, AI is hard to predict when it comes to maths, and if you're using it to learn on top of that, you have no way of checking if whatever it is spitting out is actually true. With stuff like calculus or linear algebra, I think the concepts are 'simple' enough that it would probably not be wrong too often. However, I maintain that it's hard to check.

In terms of resources, I think Paul's Online Math Notes is great to get a second explanation of a concept, with lots of examples, exercises, and worked solutions. It's accessible and is aimed at students learning about calculus for the first time.
For worked examples explained live, I think you'll find that Organic Chemistry Tutor on YouTube has a few videos of worked examples for any integration technique you'll need.
Finally, if you're stuck on exercises and need either hints or full solutions, I recommend you take a look at the Integral Calculator.

This calculus video tutorial explains how to find the indefinite integral of cos(2x) using u-substitution.

its about recognizing patterns

rational functions - use partial fraction decomposition
