Pre-calc mathematics can be a bit boring because it consists mostly of a lot of technicalities that aren't themselves super interesting. A lot of those technicalities are connected in ways that unfortunately become only apparent in much higher-level maths. So I can understand that it's a bit of a pain, but I also think that it gets better afterwards (at least on the conceptual level).
I'm a bit skeptical about the use of ChatGPT because it can be very off about maths. If it's something it has seen exactly like this in its training materials, it will get it right (e.g. it will spit out the correct quadratic formula). But if you ask it to solve a specific problem that it hasn't seen before with those exact parameters, it might be bogus.
It could still help, but proceed with caution. For example, there's one part where you ask it why it multiplied by 4. Your question is wrong, because it multiplied by -4, but ChatGPT, always eager to please, doesn't correct you on that, instead it says:
"Multiplying by 4 is equivalent to dividing by −0.25 because 1/-0.25 = -4" - which is self-contradictory.
There are also other services you could use for this, such as symbolab (which is rule-based), but I think it needs a subscription to see all the steps.
I would recommend actually reading the textbook. Or, if it's a boring textbook, try out other textbooks. People find different kinds of explanations intuitive / different styles of exposition engaging, so you can experiment. I think it would make it easier for you to retain the material because you would learn some of the why.
In mathematics, it's often a better strategy to understand something and be able to know what it's true, than to just memorise the result.
