The whole lecture series was about giving students a style of thinking that might hopefully prepare them for the future, without focusing on special knowledge (there were other courses for that).
Two of the lectures were spent on building intuition for very high dimensionality (this one), and another on neural networks, because he thought there was a big chance they were going to be important. In the early 90s, not bad.
