When I was going to school, I had a few great teachers and a lot of mediocre teachers, and the thing that probably kept me out of jail was books because I could go read what Aristotle wrote, or what Plato wrote, and I didn't have to have an intermediary in the way.
To solve this problem, Jobs felt that the next 50 to 100 years of development in computing should in some way look to create machines capable of capturing an underlying set of principles or an underlying way of looking at the world.
Maybe someday, after the person's dead and gone, we can ask this machine: 'hey, what would Aristotle have said? What about this?' And maybe we won't get the right answer, but maybe we will, and that's really exciting to me, and that's one of the reasons I'm doing what I'm doing.
