Can you sense the pattern? There’s an unwritten hybrid category above each of them.
Feeding chatGPT parts of structures it gives you and asking it to continue reveals some of its internal knowledge organizations. For example, when I asked it to give me a Roman Outline of human knowledge I might find interesting, it gave me a short outline. From that outline I took away everything else and extracted the following A. B. pattern* (I’ll put descriptions it gave of a few at the end):
A. Definition
B. Overview of different branches
A. Physics
B. Chemistry
A. Psychology
B. Sociology
A. History
B. Philosophy
A. Visual Arts
B. Literature
A. Summary of Human Knowledge
B. The importance of broad and diverse knowledge.”
So calling these A.B. groups, I asked it to find more for me and it did.
A. Biology B. Ecology
A. Economics B. Political Science
A. Mathematics B. Computer Science
A. Physics B. Engineering
A. Physical Education B. Sports Science

A. Human Resource Management B. Organizational Behavior
A. Linguistics B. Translation
A. Music B. Sound Engineering
A. Political Economy B. International Relations
A. Astronomy B. Astrophysics
A. Mechanical Engineering B. Aerospace Engineering
A. Zoology B. Wildlife Biology
A. Business Management B. Entrepreneurship
A. Public Health B. Epidemiology
A. Art History B. Museum Studies
A. Religious Studies B. Theology
