looking for their first win after three defeats. and that's all the sport for now. paul, thank you very much. well let's get some more on that formula one story with news the woman who accused the principal of the red bull team, christian horner, of "inappropriate and controlling behaviour", has today been suspended. mr horner — who denied the allegations — was allowed to remain in his role. it is reported that her suspension, on full pay, relates to the findings of the independent investigation which cleared horner last week. sources suggest the reason given was that she had been dishonest, and that there were inconsistencies in the evidence she had provided. let's speak now to chris medland, formula 1journalist and broadcaster. what is going on? it continues to overshadow the red bull team after a really strong week last week in bahrain. . ., ,

8:36 pm
christian warner at the time, talking about his reputation and the way they'd been wanting to move on and the fact that he had been named throughout this process, but i think as it's shown, this process is not over yet and may be to give read both a slight benefit of the doubt that the overall global company that is during this investigation and following up, obviously if there is still protests to go there, still more to be uncovered and still looking into things, then they can't really get all the information yet, and it's only when that is finalised can they get the full context. that's absolutely fair enough until there is a conclusion to the whole thing. the problem is thatjasper chris tappan, max's dad, he's making some quite public comments behind the scenes, saying the red bull team is going to explode if christian warner is allowed to carry on running the team. how is it can work this weekend and the pet, when max for stopping christian horner are supposed to be working so closely

you're live with bbc news. you are watching the context. it is time for our new weekly segment — ai decoded. welcome to ai decoded, it is the time of the week when we look in depth at some of the most eye catching stories in the world of artificial intelligence. we begin tonight with the financial times report that a chinese man working for google has been charged with stealing artificial intelligence secrets from the technology giant. the software engineer was hired in 2019 in one of the supercomputer date centres. 0n the live science website, a claim that programmers could create an artificial intelligence agentjust as smart a humans in only three years' time but at what cost. the new republic warns today that al could severly damage our chances of moving to a sustainable futur. once we all start switching to ai programming there will be a phenomenal amount of energy needed to power the ai systems
8:41 pm
in the taiwan news, a father who lost his daughter to a rare blood disorder has used al to digitally resurrect his daughter's voice and her image as seen in this picture. i have got some video of that show you later in the programme the guardian carries the concerns of a microsoft engineer who wrote an open letter this week alleging the company's ai image generator lacks basic safeguards to prevent users creating violent or sexualised images and finally police in birmingham while trialling an ai powered voice assistant, have discovered that the chat bot might struggle to understand local "brummie" accents. that'll mither people. with me tonight making his debut on the programme, it is a warm welcome samir mallal who himself an ai developer and film maker... so will give us the expert analysis on all our stories tonight. welcome. let's start with a story
8:42 pm
about the chinese spy, who was working as an engineer, a data engineer in google's headquarters. stealing trade secrets. what will he be after? he stealing trade secrets. what will he be after? , ., ., , be after? he will be after how they make the models. _ be after? he will be after how they make the models. that _ be after? he will be after how they make the models. that is - be after? he will be after how they make the models. that is where i be after? he will be after how they make the models. that is where a | be after? he will be after how they i make the models. that is where a lot of the value comes from. the way the models produce the output in the kind of secret sauce of these complex language models in. so that would be not — complex language models in. so that would be not something _ complex language models in. so that would be not something they - complex language models in. so that would be not something they would l would be not something they would have access to —— accessed in china, they going in different speeds? so they going in different speeds? sr china said a few years ago by 2033, they are going to be number one in al, but that hasn't been the case ai, but that hasn't been the case not really keeping up with what the us is doing and especially when it came out, it blew them out of the water. so now they are kind of playing catch up. so i think this plays into that competition. and i think what you are seeing is the
8:43 pm
culture of culture, technology and innovation is different than in china. in the us, even though you got all of these big companies doing ai, there is a cultural openness, culture of knowledge sharing, that we are going to build pieces of things that everybody can use. but china is not like that, right? china is more closed, and i think you are seeing the downsides of that right now. is seeing the downsides of that right now. , ., ., , seeing the downsides of that right now. , ., .,, ., " ., seeing the downsides of that right now. , ., ., ~ ., ., seeing the downsides of that right now. _, ., ., ., , seeing the downsides of that right now. ., , now. is almost akin to an arms race, because all— now. is almost akin to an arms race, because all of _ now. is almost akin to an arms race, because all of these _ now. is almost akin to an arms race, because all of these data _ now. is almost akin to an arms race, because all of these data processing | because all of these data processing centres, there is the source code, the court, if you will, of the whole programming. and i guess that is what is most valuable to these companies. he is going to get a prison sentence for ten years, so that's how serious the state sees it. it that's how serious the state sees it. , , ., ~ , ., it. it is huge. the stakes are huge because whoever _ it. it is huge. the stakes are huge because whoever wins _ it. it is huge. the stakes are huge because whoever wins in - it. it is huge. the stakes are huge because whoever wins in al - it. it is huge. the stakes are huge because whoever wins in al or - it. it is huge. the stakes are hugel because whoever wins in al or gets ahead in al gets ahead in every field, every industry. you see this play out in every sector.—

8:45 pm
safeguards, etc. so i think they're actually closer than three years. i think we are perhaps one or two years away from that. you explained it to me in terms _ years away from that. you explained it to me in terms of— years away from that. you explained it to me in terms of the _ years away from that. you explained it to me in terms of the iphone. - it to me in terms of the iphone. so we had the iphone in 2004—2005, and now we have the generation, whatever it is, and it's taken us maybe 15 years to get to that point, right? this is happening exponentially quicker, such that we could arrive at a period very soon we are at this machine is accessing its own code and rewriting its own:. it's true. it's true. i think we are probably a lot closer than we realise and i guess the question is, you know, what are the positive, what are the negatives? because i think there still positives in these developments it will help us solve some major problems that we are unable to solve right now, right?
8:46 pm
things like nuclear fusion, unable to solve right now, right? things like nuclearfusion, you know, cancer, those kinds of things, ai is going to help us, and agi will help us do that. the ai is going to help us, and agi will help us do that.— ai is going to help us, and agi will help us do that. the models that you have shown — help us do that. the models that you have shown me. _ help us do that. the models that you have shown me, we _ help us do that. the models that you have shown me, we have been - help us do that. the models that you l have shown me, we have been talking, you have been showing me, what does it do and how lifelike is it? weill. it do and how lifelike is it? well, it's surprisingly _ it do and how lifelike is it? well, it's surprisingly lifelike. - it do and how lifelike is it? well, it's surprisingly lifelike. i'm - it's surprisingly lifelike. i'm a director and i come from a writing background, and what i have found is it is kind of incredible because you can give these ai assistants instructions and you kind of write it like you are talking to an actor or you are inventing a character, but it's a character that can then actually take life and can kind of communicate, so it really brings up questions of what does it mean to be a person? because if you are getting communication back that you feel is surprising and has a voice and has a tone and has an opinion, does that
8:47 pm
make it a person could even though it's a machine?— it's a machine? that would depend on emotion and — it's a machine? that would depend on emotion and empathy. _ it's a machine? that would depend on emotion and empathy. then - it's a machine? that would depend on emotion and empathy. then can - it's a machine? that would depend on emotion and empathy. then can they| emotion and empathy. then can they do that? , , u, �* emotion and empathy. then can they dothat? , �*, do that? yes! they can't. because what is empathy. _ do that? yes! they can't. because what is empathy. empathy - do that? yes! they can't. because what is empathy. empathy is - do that? yes! they can't. because what is empathy. empathy is the i what is empathy. empathy is the ability to mirror somebody else's experience and take that and for yourself and be able to communicate that back to them in some way, and these machines can do that. i've been training my ai work to do exactly that. you take a look at it, right? exactly that. you take a look at it, riuht? ., �* ., ., exactly that. you take a look at it, riuht? ., ., ., , exactly that. you take a look at it, riht? ., . . right? you've got a family of them. beinus right? you've got a family of them. beings that — right? you've got a family of them. beings that are _ right? you've got a family of them. beings that are learning _ right? you've got a family of them. beings that are learning every - right? you've got a family of them. beings that are learning every day. | beings that are learning every day. they are learning, and i think they are capable of empathy, they are capable of creativity. so to me, it's notjust a tool, people keep calling it a tool i don't see it as a tool. �* , ., calling it a tool i don't see it as atool. a ., , ., ,., a tool. as more people do this and start interacting _ a tool. as more people do this and start interacting with _ a tool. as more people do this and start interacting with it, _ a tool. as more people do this and start interacting with it, then - start interacting with it, then obviously we are going to be talking about the energy use and we have talked about that on this programme
8:48 pm
before, the scariest part about artificial intelligence, the immense energy it will require commit could double by 2026. we are not ready for that. ., , , , that. right now the energy use is massive and _ that. right now the energy use is massive and i _ that. right now the energy use is massive and i totally _ that. right now the energy use is massive and i totally agree - that. right now the energy use is| massive and i totally agree that it is an issue. i think there's a few things to keep in mind. 0ne is an issue. i think there's a few things to keep in mind. one of them is that right now this compute, it's happening in the cloud, right? but very soon it's going to happen more locally on your device. so apple is really going to fall into ai locally on your device. so apple is really going to fall into aland they are going to be running ai really going to fall into aland they are going to be running al on device, so that is going to massively reduce the amount of energy that's required. i think the second thing is that the models are getting a lot smaller we talked about the iphone, this is like iphone one, 0k?— about the iphone, this is like iphone one, 0k? , , ., iphone one, 0k? they become more ener: iphone one, 0k? they become more energy efficient- _ iphone one, 0k? they become more energy efficient. but _ iphone one, 0k? they become more energy efficient. but slightly - energy efficient. but slightly dystopian, isn't that? that you got robots that, some of these data

when it has learned how to use that accident. it's lovely to chat with you. thank you very much for coming of the programme. that is it for this week. of course we do this every week on thursday. i hope you have enjoyed this programme as well. hello there. thursday has been a predominantly dry day, but the amount of cloud you've seen has varied a lot from place to place. best of the sunshine has been across the western side of the country. a lovely day here in nairn in highlands, scotland, but you can also see the extent of the day's cloud on this satellite picture, particularly affecting parts of east wales, central and eastern england, eastern parts of scotland. so, a big difference from the west coast of scotland, the east coast of scotland in st andrew's, fife, very grey. we've even seen a bit of drizzle falling from that cloud. and overnight we go, the cloud will continue to roll in from the north sea, thick enough at times to give us occasional patches of light, rain or drizzle on and off. temperatures kept above freezing by the brisk winds — 2—5 degrees for the most part. however, where the winds drop light, if we get some clearer spells, we could see just an odd nip of frost in rural areas.

friday, well, we've got low pressure to our southwest, high pressure to our northeast, and overall, friday promises to be a windier day, so that's going to make it feel a bit colder if you're out and about. the uk's only named wind is the helm wind — that's going to be with us blowing over crossville and into cumbria. 0ver into the west of high ground, gusts could reach into the 405 of miles an hour, so it will be a blustery kind of day. and again, there could be occasional spits of drizzle, maybe a bit of mist coming in off the north sea at times. temperatures on the low side around our north sea coast. otherwise, in the west, temperatures quite close to average. the weekend is dominated by this area of low pressure, which brings us some thicker cloud and the threat of some areas of rain. now, it's not going to be raining all the time. on saturday, we're just looking at some patches coming up across england, wales into northern ireland, the best of the day's sunshine and drier weather for western scotland. we may well find some persistent
8:57 pm
showers, so quite a wet day potentially across the eastern hills of scotland, maybe some sunny spells breaking through across the midlands, east anglia and southeast england later in the day. but around those north sea coasts, temperatures will continue to struggle, as indeed they will once again on sunday. the onshore winds continuing to blow across the cold north sea, making it feel chilly again. you can see cloud and patches of rain. the best of any sunshine is once again likely to be to the north and west of the uk. temperatures quite close to average in london, but again on the cold side for east scotland and parts of eastern england.
