If you did not study these topics, the chances are good you do not know what questions to even ask, let alone how to ask them. Add to the fact that you don't even know if the original summary is accurate.

The original summary is the paper’s abstract, which I read. The questions I ask are what I don’t understand or am curious about. Chances are 100% that I know what these are!
I’m not trying to master these subjects for any practical purpose. It’s curiosity and learning.
It’s not the same as taking a class; not worse either. It’s a different type of learning for specific situations.
Asking the right questions (in the right language) was important before and it's even more important with LLMs, if you want to get any real leverage out of them.
