you mentioned aristotle several times. aristotle as some of you may remember gave a list of the different forms of government as did plato and both of them listed different forms of government, aristocracy, monarchy, oligarchy and democracy and they gave democracy thelowest grade . aristotle has always been one of my great heroes but why did he give, why did he give our form ofgovernment a low-grade ? two summers ago it was my project to reread aristotle and my conclusion was that he thought democracy would not have the capacity to mature. it's our destiny to prove him wrong. the constitution itself presumes that there will be respectful productive dialogue between the branches. we talk about separation of powers, some branches of government have their own powers that congress can raise and support armies, declare war. the court has cases. so these are powers that they have but there's also checks and balances and that means thebranches must work together .we every year send members of our court to the congress to say that

entioned aristotle several times. he gave a list of the different forms of government as in plateau and both of them listed different forms of government. monarchy, oligarchy and democracy and gave democracy the lowest rate. and he has been one of our great heroes. why did he give my form of government a low grade? aristotle , i read and my conclusion is he thought democracy did not have the capacity to mature if our destiny to prove him wrong. the constitution itself present sumes that -- presumes there will be -- we talked about separation of powers from branches of government, each has their own powers and others can improve upon it. and the president is the commander in chief. the court has cases. so these are powers that they have. but there are also checks and balances and means that the branches must work together. we, every year, members of our court to the congress to say we need resources, we need the money. this is checks and balances. d it's a respectful, thoughtful, progressive discussion. we must remembe

systems aristotle's politics. he says of all of them the best is democracy and it only points out exactly the flaws that medicine pointed out. if athens were a democracy for free men the poor would get together and take away the property the rich. well same dilemma they had opposite solutions aristotle proposed what we would nowadays call a welfare state and try to reduce inequality. so the same problem absent solutions one is reduce inequality will have this problem and the other is reduced monikers. if you look at the history of the united states it's a constant struggle between these 2 tendencies democratising tendency that's mostly coming from the population pressure from below and you get this constant battle going on periods or gratian periods of progress in 1906 for example were a period of significant democratization. sectors of the folk elation that were usually passive and the city became organized active story pressing their demand. and they became more and more involved in decision making and activism

well the same dilemma they had up as it solutions aristotle proposed what we would nowadays call a welfare state to try to reduce inequality. so the same problem that solutions one is reduce inequality will have this problem and the other is reduced monikers. if you look at the history of the united states it's a constant struggle between these 2 tendencies democratizing tendencies that's mostly coming from the population pressure from below and you get these constant battle going on periods or gratian periods of progress in 1906 for example were a period of significant democratization. sectors of the fucking lation that were usually passive apis it became organized active story pressing their demand. and they became more and more involved in decision making and activism and so on. they just changed consciousness in ways. 'd minority rights. really don't want. women's rights. in terms of the. american. position to creation. criticize us. they are serious about law. and the vietnamese people black people and people concerned for other people. in poor people in america when you make. a reaso

you could say aristotle was doing a.i. even though he did not have a computer or electricity to do a.i. but he was thinking about the mechanical process of human thought decision-making, planning and so one and he described -- in my textbook we have agreed text which describes a simple algorithm that he talks about and how you can reach a decision about what to do. so the idea has been there and steps have been taken including the development which started in aging greece and ancient india and revived itself in the mid-19th century and logic is overlooked these days by the community but it is the mathematics of things. the world has things in it. so if you want to have systems of intelligent in a world that contains things young, mathematic that incorporates things as third class citizens and logic is mathematics. whatever shape is super intelligent system eventually takes will incorporate in some form logical reasoning and the kind of expected languages that go along with it. so let me give a couple of examples that are c

you see a lot of price war a lot of competitive low cost carriers like you have to be getting like aristotle not really looking like. the alliance doesn't care to look very competitive environment for all these elements and some of them fight for financial strains the currency is weak their economy is not that strong at the moment but there's a big amount of travelling inside because it starts a huge country so quite a competitive market for the island just. the plane itself kurt it was a focal 100 now those planes gosh i remember those from my childhood that's going back a bit now i didn't know they were still flying is that it is it considered still to be a safe airplane well i think of us built in 1906 and received many aircrafts with the station around the world flying especially in australia you see a lot of fog up 70 spoke of 100 flying bits to a very good job it's a very common it's a handy aircraft to pilots like operating this aircraft and there is every all the air out of course maintenance is always the issue to keep on in your life it works you for a long time certainly if they m

i mean, you could say aristotle was doing a.i., he just didn't have a computer or any electricity to do a.i. with, but he was thinking about the mechanical process of human thought, decision making, planning and so on. and he even described on the front of my textbook, actually, we have the little greek text which describes a simple planning algorithm that he talks about. this is how you can reach a decision about what to do. so the idea has been there, and steps have been taken including the development of logic which, again, started in ancient greece and ancient india and revised itself in the mid 19 isth century. -- 19th century. you know, lodge aric is overlooked -- logic is overlooked these days by the deep learning community, but it is the mathematics of things. right? and the world has things in it. so if you want to have systems that are intelligent in a world that contains things, you have to have a mathematics that incorporates things as sort of first class citizens and logic in that mathematics. so whatever shape a super-intelligent system eventually takes, it's going to i

aristotle was another one that discussed the meaning of life . there were people like camo, people like russo who talked about the meaning of life and then there were the great religious leaders. people like augustine, people like aquinas who talked about the meaning of life and one other thing they talked about , at least plato did because he talked about the eternal nature of the soul. they had a discussion also about if there is a life everlasting, how does what we do here affect what we do there? i'd like you to think about that for a second. we talk about it atcollege, the meaning of life . we talk about it when we bury somebody we love. it gets late into the night and that's when our families get to be the closest . we talk about it when we have a fantastic wedding. and we danced and we have a great time and the bride is dancing with dad and the groom is dancing with mom and then we have our drinks and then we gather. and i've been there many times. you see, it's important for us to think about those things. and it's important to think abou

aristotle taught mathematics can't really prescribed -- or describe our world.on when the christian church agreed, geometry was very nice but our world is a fallen and corrupt world. certainly not something that can be described by geometry. geometry gets all the praise. it pleased god to bestow our mankind but it's also irrelevant because our world is something like that. that lasts for about 1700 years. by euclid until -- simple mathematic truth but until 1400, until pretty much the year 1400 and 13. not a famous year for most people but it's a year in which a man by the name of felipe conducting experiments on perspective. when you're perspective and then he has an artist inflator on, they developed and established a theory of linear perspective. initially it is a theory of how to draw things, how to paint three dimensions on a flat surface. basically there's a vanishing. you can draw a vanish -- anyway, there's a system that is on the horizon, this is a perspective exercise because you can see yeah, it's doing what he wants. like to get back to this. oh. any
