Deedy on X: "I always hated that ..." / X

I always hated that when I studied Physics, I had no intuition of what order I could study topics in, except linear.

The latest LLM use-case I love is feeding the Table of Contents of a textbook and asking it to create the dependency graph of topics!

Here are some: Physics

"Here is the table of contents of a textbook. Please draw a visually appealing Graphviz graph with an opinionated recommendation of which topics should be taught in what order. An edge in the graph should denote that a subtopic should be learnt before another."

Mathematics

Chemistry

Some of the orderings are a bit odd, like electromagnetic waves before geometric optics, but it does have wave optics after geometric optics and waves in general.
