@tldr
I think Aristotle is making here the first ever argument for "the wisdom of the crowd". (Politics 3.11) He is addressing a very important question: What might justify a multitude being put in decision-making authority over the most excellent few from within that multitude? It seems like we will need to revive this question and extend it to what the political role of LLM should be. Given that this is just a statistical aggregation of the wisdom of the largest crowd ever (the Internet).
