01:48uh
01:56Oh, no.
02:26You
02:50Yeah
04:51Okay, yeah, spread this, let's do some dancing.
04:56Well, let's do, yeah, sure, dancing.
05:04Yeah, lower hips.
05:12It's more stretching than dancing.
05:21Yeah, there you go.
05:24Five minutes, thank you.
05:28Yeah.
05:31Yeah, I'm kind of exhausted, but yeah, we'll keep it short today.
05:37Yeah.
05:41Okay.
05:51Okay.
06:05Okay.
06:07Okay.
06:08Okay, great.
06:10Perfect.
06:14Okay.
06:16Okay.
06:18Okay.
11:48So, U.S. Supreme Court, federal level, appointed by President and then confirmed by U.S. Senate, right?
11:58Yeah.
11:59Yeah.
12:00The problem is, the problem is that the judiciary is supposed to be independent, but if the president appoints a support court of justice, then that justice may feel indebtedness to the president and the president's party.
12:21So, yeah, so that's not good for the independence of the judiciary is supposed to be voted by the voters in the election.
12:30So, yeah.
12:31So, yeah.
12:32So, yeah.
12:35Yeah.
12:36So, yeah.
12:37Yeah.
13:05Yeah.
13:06Yeah.
13:07So, yeah.
13:08So, yeah.
13:09So, yeah.
13:10Yeah.
13:11Yeah.
13:12Okay, no party affiliation. That's how it should be when it comes to election of judges and justices.
13:20Okay, but they should be independent from politics. Okay.
13:25Yeah, so no party money. Okay.
13:28Yeah, this question I asked, can I answer my own question actually? And then there's some classes of artificial intelligence, very interesting.
13:56Yeah, and yeah, several months ago, I took this continuing legal education class online. It's kind of like a live closed Zoom meeting kind of, okay?
14:12Yeah, and I did raise this issue of autonomy fee when it comes to artificial intelligence. Okay, so I was very happy that they were inspired by my comments and questions.
14:25Okay, yeah. Nice. Yeah, I'm happy to help them, you know? Yeah. And so like basically the issue is that
14:36autonomy using artificial intelligence, you can get the job done in 10 minutes. Otherwise, you have taken three hours.
14:44So then should we charge our client three hours or 10 minutes for 10 minutes?
14:52Okay, yeah.
14:53And their answer was that, yeah, I mean, I also made some comments, artificial intelligence too. Sometimes free, sometimes not free. Okay, maybe we can
15:09let the client pay part of that artificial intelligence cost.
15:14Okay. Yeah.
15:24Now, uh, it's itchy here a little bit. It's like, it's kind of bacterial.
15:31Not infection person, but it's a bacterial itchiness. What I'm going to do?
15:35Uh, hand sanitizer, okay?
15:37Uh, with Q-tip, I'll put some in there. Okay? Yeah, it's itchy. Now, five minutes back, okay? Yeah.
15:46Sure.
15:48Oh.
15:53Oh, yeah.
15:54Oh, yeah.
16:07Oh, yeah.
16:16Oh, yeah.
16:26Oh, yeah.
16:30Oh.
16:31Oh, my God.
16:33Oh, yeah.
16:35Oh, yeah.
16:35Oh, yeah.
19:08Okay.
19:09So, how many people were there in the audience?
19:16About 300, I guess?
19:22Yeah, you know, a whole, like, big ballroom, right?
19:25Yeah, for conference.
19:27Maybe three, about 300, I guess.
19:29Yeah, okay.
19:30About.
19:31Maybe more, maybe less.
19:34Yeah.
19:34Okay.
19:35Okay.
19:36Room full of lawyers, basically.
19:40Alaska lawyers, okay?
19:41Yeah.
19:42And each lecture, you continue legal education, one hour and 30 minutes, 90 minutes, okay?
19:54Many times, my left lower back was kind of sore, and so I went to the back of the ballroom and stand up and did some stretching, okay?
20:11Yeah.
20:12Yeah.
20:13Yeah.
20:13I'm fine now, okay?
20:14Yeah.
20:19But everybody well behaving.
20:22Also, I appreciate the hotel employees, great professionals, yeah.
20:28So, we are all vetted because, like, in the hotel employment setting, okay?
20:33Yeah, well, they went to go through interview process and then probationary period, and then, so they are hired and they are not fired.
20:42Maybe some of them are fired, if they misbehaved, okay?
20:46Any employment setting, job setting, okay?
20:48Yeah, so they are vetted, okay?
20:50Interview process, job application, interview, then hiring, probationary period, and some people misbehave and they lose their job, they, and, and, but people who remain, yeah, they're professionals, they are vetted.
21:02They are good people, professionals, okay?
21:06Yeah.
21:08Yeah, any employment setting on the cycle, okay?
21:10Yeah, very, okay, yeah.
21:12And, lawyer world, yeah, we, okay, to be a lawyer, it's like four-year college, then three-year law school, well, I, it took me two years, okay, law school, but mostly three years, okay?
21:34And, um, after that, yeah, passing the bar exam, study hard, and then, um,
21:42get a lawyer job, keep the lawyer job, not getting fired, so they're vetted, they're behaved, okay?
21:52Yeah, but when I used to do live show, like an open zoom show or Instagram live, I don't do that anymore, I'm too old for that, okay, I just don't have energy.
22:03Yeah, but, yeah, mostly good people, but there are some not so good people, because it's not vetted, anybody can join us, right?
22:11Uh, I, I cannot do that anymore, okay, it's just, I'm too old for that, okay?
22:17Yeah, also, I don't drink alcohol anymore, you know, so, okay?
22:21Yeah, so, these days, just pre-recorded show, like this, solo zoom show, uploaded to Zelle Motion, that's all I can do, yeah.
22:29Yeah, so, I'm old, okay, yeah, and there's some questions I wanted to ask, but there are many lectures, right?
22:47Past three days, and then, uh, but there are, like, 300 people, lawyers, yeah, so I asked the very first question,
22:58in the very first lecture, after that, let's give other people a chance to ask them their questions, okay?
23:08So, I didn't raise my hands, although I did have some questions, well, more like, more like comments,
23:14because me, if I have questions, I come up with my own answers, then I want to ask them what they think about that issue.
23:23It's not that I do not know the answer, I already know the answer, but I just want to hear from that
23:34guest speakers' opinion on those issues, okay?
23:39Yeah, but I refrain from raising my hands again, because I already asked questions,
23:50I want to give other people a chance to ask their questions, as a courtesy, okay?
23:56But now that we are here, now that it's just me here, yeah, I'll ask and answer those questions here,
24:03bro. Really? Yeah, that I had in my mind. Yeah. Five minutes, bro. Well, let's play some guitar,
24:12then we'll take five minutes, bro. I'm grateful, great, 300 artists in the hotel. I ate a lot.
24:21Cheers, happy Friday.
24:22Cheers, happy Friday.
24:51Yeah.
24:52Yeah, five is good, thank you.
25:02Okay.
25:02Okay.
27:04oh yeah some lectures about artificial intelligence very interesting and yeah
27:11comes to science major you know and so uh it's like this artificial intelligence
27:19what is it is an algorithm that imitates neural network in animal's brain
27:26including humans okay it's adaptive algorithm it's machine learning and
27:34it's like linear programming uh it's like linear function which is a plane
27:41straight line the coefficient adjustment based on sampling sample data okay so it's induction inductive reasoning
27:50okay uh deduction is deductive reasoning is based on logic okay so uh us up former u.s
28:00of prequel justice uh oliver wendell holmes he said yeah law is about experience not about logic
28:09okay uh but i disagree okay yeah uh law is like half and half it's based on experience and based on logic
28:18experience meaning like induction logic means deduction okay it's both of them
28:23okay okay and yeah so computer programming yeah it could be based on induction that's artificial
28:30intelligence uh sample data okay machine learning oh so computer programming can be based on logic
28:39deduction like mathematics okay it does both okay then what's the limit in the artificial intelligence
28:46understand is creativity okay okay creativity is more like divine god okay so uh like i do not think artificial intelligence
28:59in the future no matter how well it's developed i don't think it will be able to create music like mozart or
29:09beethoven or bach i don't think so okay okay okay so that's the limit about creativity okay creativity
29:23ai cannot have that okay yeah in my opinion okay yeah so uh like uh rules of professional conduct
29:37there's a lawyer's uh code uh that's like uh american bioassociation aba uh came up with that and then
29:46other states like including alaska kind of adopted that aba and added some of their own stuff
29:52because modeled after that okay so yeah rules 3.1 is like uh merits of argument before the court uh it should
30:02not be frivolous but we lawyers are allowed to make good faith argument uh that add okay for change of the law
30:13or extension of existing law okay yeah that's where creativity comes in in lawyer setting okay that is
30:24something artificial intelligence cannot do how about google google yeah nowadays they use ai but back in the
30:31there's the original google search engine it's not artificial intelligence at all then what is google
30:36algorithm yeah look it's all public knowledge okay uh they wrote academic paper and published it okay
30:44yeah google search engine original algorithm is the about pre-computation yeah like
30:50search result they pre-computation yeah apple okay what are the list of the web pages
31:06they pre-search it and then they store it in a big computer storage server okay yeah and after that
31:14they use linear algebra matrix i do not know the details okay but yeah i learned a little bit about
31:22it okay uh the original google search algorithm that's not artificial intelligence
31:30okay it does not imitate neural network okay uh the beginning of artificial intelligence yeah the
31:38the psychology professor in cornell mr professor frank rosenblatt artificial neural network he's the original
31:50ai guy okay not many people know about this
31:58okay
32:00cheers
32:08oh okay yeah bye miss brett thank you
32:13yeah
32:17oh
32:38yeah
32:46yeah
32:48yeah
32:48yeah
34:41So...
34:42to. What is jurist? Legal scholar. Yeah, I'm a jurist, sure.
34:53So, US Supreme Court basically going along with that elected guy, not going
35:01against that guy is because... I think some NPR people are mentioning this, I
35:12think. It's because they do not want to expose their weakness, the weakness of
35:21US Supreme Court. What is the weakness of US Supreme Court? Yeah, lack of
35:26enforcement power. Because when it comes to president doing something illegal,
35:35okay, so it's... Okay, US Congress have power to impeach the president and remove
35:45from office. Okay. Also, executive branch, like cabinet members, like secretary of
35:53some departments, okay. Yeah, they also have the 25th Amendment or something.
36:00They do have power to remove president from the office. Okay. So yeah, executive
36:09branch, like department, like cabinet member, secretaries of departments, executive
36:15branch, also congressional, the legislative branch, their impeachment powers, they both
36:22have, like, power to remove president from office, but not the US Supreme Court.
36:30Okay. How many departments are there in executive branch? 30, 50? Quite sizable.
36:39Many secretaries, okay. Dozens of them. US Congress, you have Congress people and in the
36:47House and the senators. Senators, there are 100 of them, right? Two in each state. Congress
36:56Congress people, like, over 500 people. 400 or something, right? So they have, like, 500 people,
37:05there are people in US Congress, Senate and House, okay? A lot of people. But in US Supreme Court, there are nine justices.
37:14Small number, small number, okay? And then there are district courts, federal courts, judges.
37:23And federal police, they're, like, US Marshals, who arrest people, okay? Federal fugitives and FBI, the investigators.
37:37They're, like, federal level police officers, okay? And federal criminal law, enacted by US Congress.
37:49Okay? Yeah. But US Supreme Court, when it comes to US President doing something illegal, well, the thing is this, okay, in general, actually,
38:04US Marshals, FBI, Attorney General, they belong to the executive branch.
38:20The head of the executive branch? President.
38:25So US Marshals, FBI, they do not work for US Supreme Court of Justices.
38:31They also work for US President. Okay. So if the president does something wrong, who's going to arrest him? Or how?
38:38Okay.
38:40Yeah.
38:43So if US Supreme Court of Justices go against
38:49US President, then, hypothetically, US President may say,
38:56Yeah, so what?
39:00US Marshals, FBI, they're not going to arrest me. They work for me. They don't work for US Supreme Court of Justices, okay?
39:06So I'm going to just go against your rulings.
39:09So go ahead, rule against me. I'm going to just ignore your rulings.
39:14That way, US Supreme Court will expose its weakness, the lack of enforcement power. And they do not want to expose their weakness. That's why they are going along with the US President.
39:29Unconstitutional actions. Like, what the elected guy is doing is unconstitutional. It's illegal.
39:43Like, illegal, wrongful deportation. Tariffs. Tariffs that belong to US Congress. It's not a business of US President. Okay?
39:56So he's overreaching. He's abusing his power.
39:59The President doesn't, according to the Constitution, the President doesn't have power to regulate tariffs. That's US Congress. Okay?
40:08Okay.
40:09Deportation, we're talking about wrongful deportation. Okay?
40:15And what else? The elected guy is doing wrong. Unconstitutional. It's a common crime, basically. Okay?
40:22Yeah, the wrongful termination of federal employees. Okay?
40:32And retaliatory action against law firms whose clients were against him.
40:44Okay?
40:46Okay?
40:47Yeah.
40:48He's abusing his power. That's what he's doing.
40:51Elected guy. Okay.
40:53So, during the conference and convention, yeah, there have been some discussion about that. Okay?
41:03Well, it's not bad. Not too bad. It's bad, but it's not too, too bad. I'm not concerned.
41:14He elected guy. He'll be there for, what, four years. They have that. Okay?
41:21He cannot do that much damage during those times. Okay? So, I'm not worried.
41:30It's bad, but it's not too bad. Okay?
41:34American Democrats are strong. So, he cannot do too much damage. Okay?
41:40Okay.
41:41Okay.
41:42Okay.
41:43Okay.
41:44Okay.
41:45Okay.
41:46Okay.
41:47Okay.
41:48Okay.
41:49Okay.
41:50Okay.
41:51Okay.
41:52Okay.
41:53Okay.
41:54Okay.
41:55Okay.
41:56Okay.
41:57Yeah.
41:58After that, I'm going to watch some Twilight Zone episodes.
42:03Okay?
42:04Okay.
42:06Okay.
42:20Yeah.
42:21Okay.
42:22Okay.
42:27Okay.
44:48Yeah.
45:10Yeah.
45:12Yeah.
45:14Because photo paper that I used to use during the election campaign, it is thicker than regular paper.
45:20So it takes too much space.
45:22So, just regular paper, okay?
45:26Okay.
45:27Alright, that's what I have to say.
45:29Okay, yeah.
45:30I'm gonna watch some Twilight Zone episodes and then go to bed.
45:37Okay.
45:38Nice.
45:39Happy Friday.
45:41See you tomorrow.
45:42When you go to mathematics, yeah, I will get back to mathematics after my carpentry projects on roof repair, okay?
45:50We did a lot in calculus, okay?
45:55Let's do calculus later.
45:57So, next time we get back to mathematics, yeah, let's get back to number theory.
46:02Co-prong numbers, okay?
46:04Because calculus, yeah, we get back to later.
46:07It's getting too boring, you know?
46:09So, we'll get back to number theory.
46:13It's been long time.
46:15Okay?
46:16At some point, okay?
46:17Yeah, thank you.
