yes, this slide spread races, depression, today, the screen we need to talk about here, the stories, shadows of german colonialism. the optimist. few artificial intelligence as the solution for practically everything. how will we take care of global crises in the future with a couple of cars navigate with our drivers with a i probably finally secure will piece with they are but who should be held responsible if they are causes damage or injury software. the user or the manufacturer this time around would be looking at that question and many more post by the field of artificial intelligence. welcome to tomorrow. today. he's nice to artificial intelligence will change our lives in

fundamental ways. but who should control the development of this powerful technology? should it be driven by large corporations? or can it also be made available to any developer or user as a public good? the technical university of munich is an important center for a i development and research. to, to mention a give to our university is considered a leading university in europe. insight in particular, we're at the head of the pack in the fields of robotics and machine learning and perception of fuel and moves along with around 50 other universities and companies . the t u m is involved in the a alliance, a project initiated by the meta and ibm groups for the development of artificial intelligence. institutions like southern are also members, there photos, coast solution, close lab ration between research, industry and society is crucial. this means that we want to work together to advance responsible technologies,

but we also want to make them transparent and understandable and available. and i would say a very important contribution from industry is to make resources available, but also expertise wants to sort of, especially in a i where many leading lines are also anchored in industry to industry for on good . some of those leading mines, however, are not usually associated with serving the public interest. how much real influence, for instance, will matter, which also owns facebook and instagram have on the a alliance. how trustworthy you're such companies when they say they're committed to transparency and the common good members of the lie on association are critical of such an alliance. a decentralized network of scientists, i t experts and lead people lie on advocates for open access to artificial intelligence. the community views itself is not turn it up to the commercialization of a guy and doesn't want to leave this field. a big tech alone lie on an estate for

a large lie on stands for large scale a i opened network and the idea behind it is to create an open source community of people who want open source a i as in something like an open source chat g p t that anyone can download. this one is that we bring these people together to work on free, open, transparent, a i, it's all in the associations founders fear that companies driven by commercial interests could simply revise the promises made by the alliance when they get in the way of higher profits. so is there a danger that developments financed with taxpayer money might be used by large corporations. for commercial purposes, somebody had a dean doesn't think so. i'm into this talk is at the end of the day, of course we also want to ensure that the things that are developed there are not all lovely together and simply exploit uncomfortable. but i think there is

cooperation at the table and try to cope with one of home who will go for the home . despite the reservations, the challenges posed by a development are so huge that no one company can tackle that alone. basic research universities needs expertise from firms to develop market ready products. as a, a twin, the door that we're doing here means that globally, many of the most important players have recognized that we must do this together. i think we need to work together to create the foundations for this technology to become available. and then it should alternately reach the real world to buy a product, to services and above all, and via open source. and that's the driving concept. and it's very important to us, the open source is also the foundation for the lie on community which has already developed very successful products based on it. and by state, one example of how the whole thing can work is are leo l. m, which is a german open source model,

just like chat g p t. you can download it and the more advanced version of it is just as good as chatting. and it's even better at translating between english and german. well, that's the 1st thing, this annoyed but transparency won't solve every problem with the technology tech copyright issues. for instance, recently the new york times and several authors filed a lawsuit against open a i, because it's chat box use their tags to train artificial intelligence. my on was also sued because the sources in the image, databases it uses are always clearly marked. we understand i'm the who we just put the lanes which are listed in common across anyway as a so, and this nonprofit research database one. and we make the data that belongs to is excessive. both of the public makes provide, it was always in the public domain, like filtering it out was a pain on so we just make it less annoying and easy to check. that means some

people picture it in the databases. we're identifiable. many legal issues are still unresolved. this is slowing down development for both corporations and non profit organizations. a, like somebody had a dean and co stuff schuman agree on one important point of desktop, caught in the state, in germany here in that area. but especially in europe has clearly invested to level 2. it was a status in this, it's a shame the countries didn't recognize this much earlier and say we're investing so that this technology will be developed by us. in other words, that kind of apollo program for a high and that will help us all to work better live longer and be healthy, right? and so that would be so great and to see what states have done that money suddenly if europe doesn't want to fall even farther behind in the race, it will have to invest more in the development of artificial intelligence.

at the end of 2022, the company opened a i launched, shot t p t. an interactive chat bought the answers, questions using knowledge harvested from the internet. within a week the platform had a 1000000 users. but what has the tool really done for everyday life? presents, for instance, actually changed learning and working at schools and university. hello. hi. nice to see you. it's been, i'm not actually real, but you probably already knew that phone location. there's probably multiple versions that i may now see because you chat t c t x the since the cigna does become a hot topic that's always 4 to 5, was also created by computer software finish. destiny is that like the intelligent development of animated avatars. like these has been optimized by a i systems like chat t p t, but it hasn't changed to learning dramatically yet at least not for the students at

the school in hamburg. then he says, connected images, when i do use it, it's more for research to understand a particular topic better. so i can tell you on a task better. instead of using google's at my, just to use the chat, cvt and as a research tools to understand the topic and it's inside the certification i, p p t sometimes writes pretty strangely. so i just look for stuff using normal search engines, myself. smart. yeah, i like to be responsible for my own work to have control over it. so it's just not that relevant for me. i thought i think it's a good one for me. after chat, t p t was launched, kids did try to use it at school and to do homework. but teachers have since learned how to recognize that by asking what is the student really capable of and where did a i perhaps help. that's this knowing the civic, the novelty has worn off that we have to educate the students to use it consciously

as a worth to split the emphasis on work and not on tools and dynamism. because we all like convenience, dependence, appealing to get results quickly on to something that doesn't help us have to sign the heights. i would have to say a fast overview of a topic, or a new recipe, or a request for a free retail. the techs to offer as plausible responses to pretty much any demand, but is that intelligence? the technology is making us ponder that question is still decide to do stuff to them because it's brought the issue to the for because although many people have been using a i all along, they don't see it as artificial intelligence just to begin such demons. unlocking your cell phones using search engines, looking for recommendation, all that's the only i to me, but it isn't in toronto for the chat box that gives the impression that it's i think and to convict us to think them until again is probably the most important question at the moment as what a i should be allowed to do chat g p t. you can generate porn content that

glorifies violence, fake news, fake websites, this information campaigns. ethical filters can identify and reject some of it, but software like that can't recognize every thing. the explosive growth of a i, applications is making even some insight or is it i t companies nervous development has been compared to pandemic or nuclear war. so i'm unable to you to desktop when you see that it can be used to train things like drones and other devices that are then allowed to search for targets on their own. not really seriously worries, but of course we also need international agreements here. so here for cause i splish, an upcoming. most research in the field focuses on assisting people and making work easier, but a, i can be used for much more to address other major problems. for example, like those involving military conflicts with researchers are looking at artificial intelligence for the un to support it's blue helmet peacekeepers. they're trying to

identify signs that indicate when a violent outbreak is imminent. the more violence displacement, the people of the democratic republic of the congo, know them all too well un mission to the conflict region is supposed to help stabilize that. what is artificial intelligence could recognize the signs of impending outbreaks. providing peacekeeping forces with key support. that's what minutes honda l a saudi is working on at this with federal institute of technology or e t h in zurich or teen feeds data on the country's past conflicts into a i solved aware of it because it's one of these in that's going to cause you not to, we can see what their coordinates are, so where they happen and stuff. and we also know when they have those with us here . so we can then see how the conflicts roadside conflict that that's like the interest on the i process is thousands of pieces of information including reports

from the media or un peacekeepers that's enabled the research or to retroactively identify sign certain violence outbreaks were impending, been found by mountain assume events, you can recognize patterns, but it depends on how systematically the data is recorded and it's quality's going to communicate see so how systematically these conflicts also produce data quotes here. the game is with a eyes help to recognize the signs of impending conflicts. that would be very useful information for the u. n's, 90000 blue helmets worldwide. elizabeth, the organization's peacekeeping missions to have proven effective, says security policy expert under the u. s. bank. once he does complete, we can see that conflict hotspots spread less quickly and widely house pride. and also that the difficult transition from more to piece can be managed more swiftly to be that think they have to come. and of course, the better the information,

the more forward looking at was the better the un peacekeepers will be able to work and allow hating the arb. i think that's why the switch institutes president has come to new york to seal a cooperation agreement with the un save you 70 of them today will cement this cooperation at an institutional level. the un doesn't often make such a great. so this is a huge opportunity for the new ca shifted, but also for switzerland tribes. the if you have few bites of time, t h has a lot to contribute by combining strange and computer science and social sciences. zion's help us recognize conflicts and potentials earlier to his act fast and provide more targeted support for you to i can chanel it's a 100 and there's an incredible amount of potential this owncloud place for you to put inside janetta t v. i. as you know, most potential for goals in the village screens,

nothing artificial intelligence can and must also serve peace and security of the un security council, which is responsible for world peace. dedicated a session to ai swiss representative. and ambassador, a postcard about his views says it's vital for the un, huge data set to be evaluated more systematically. however, really cool. this may, i might help to predict developments faster and more accurately, but it can never replace the need for people to take responsibility. ultimately, human dignity must be at the heart of these efforts to an international community country's interest as un and the security council must take responsibility in order to find sustainable people until to give them the food. i know how to give late the theme to the un can often do little though, like in the current situation in the middle east, in the future could a, i recognize when a war is set to break out creek sounds pre k live and see it or outbreaks remain

very difficult events to predict because fortunately they are very rare events on independence can be better predicted. the more frequently they occur. comments before, what we focus on are very localized conflict dynamics over a very short period of time. so we have more information getting to them on and artificial intelligence systems can make a contribution into the game, especially when they're combined with human ex articles. and you get st. meet names like you'd expect. these are algorithms that can promote peace are still in their infancy and training them on solid data is an ongoing process. but in the future, humans and a i will work together to help identify potential conflicts before they occur. so it's no longer in its infancy autonomy is driving, isn't all grown up just yet. functions like emergency breaking, keeping the car in its lane or other driver assist might have grown quite common.

but computers still aren't quite ready to take the wheel completely. the it's already being showcased and promotional videos ended motor shows. the dream of self driving cars. just climb in and let artificial intelligence chauffeur, you wherever you want to go. but the systems weren't that far along yet. gimme a solve problems within a more driving task. so not tournaments vehicle takes on the more so called corner cases, you get is that those are quite rare occurrences that also must be tested for and saw what's challenging is there are so you radically an infinite number of them. you to get expert young back doesn't see unrestricted, fully autonomous driving for at least another decade. still boxes and what are already being sold and will grow increasingly, comments or assist systems and highly automated drive intensive team. there i can let myself be driven on certain sections of the route,

mike and stuff and go traffic on the way to work. go for k often, vic, it's all but such vehicles have already had german streets. mercedes was the 1st domestic car maker to launch a highly automated driving system in 2022. the drive pilot, at least on the highway ended speeds under 60 kilometers in our drivers, can take their hands off the steering wheel and turn their attention to other things. such technology always raises the question, who is ultimately responsible if an accident occurs like and this crash involving a semi autonomous vehicle in taiwan legal experts are trying to answer that questionnaire and other is that germany's highest transport court find all to know with a ton of mist dr. h. faulty products rather than driver. an error would be the prime cause of accidents. so manufacturer liability for drivers will increasingly become a topic of interest and then for everyone to have to. so legal experts are looking

for ways to more just lea, a portion responsibility. one goal is to make it easier to prove when a guy is actually to blame for an accident. there are currently no fully automated vehicles driving on public roads anywhere in the world . there is one, however, that is allowed to drive autonomy as we in germany. the only on fields artificial intelligence looks at to revolutionize agriculture as well. the edit test farm in the german state in saxony and event showcasing the agricultural machinery of the future is about to begin. machines like these are designed to work the fields a ton of misleading. so without humans on board. some are powered by solar energy

and can turn on a dime most are equipped with sensors, lasers cameras and gps receivers and are controlled by computers. kristof miller is competing in the event with a robotic vehicle that also generates all its own energy from a solar away the farm droid. as an economist reading robot, it performs the task without the help of chemicals and is therefore eco friendly. far enjoyed follows. rows it made in the field using a set of small but sharp blades. it cuts down every plants that it didn't, so itself relieving with the machine it with the machine. we plan, see the pre determined position was and then no later. ok, we planted some things here, so we want to whole around it. that means we can hope before the plant is even visible. it's on the scene is farms royd remembers every spot and so to see and who's around the travels around the field at less than one kilometer per hour.

a solid dollars. it all takes time. it's slow. but that also gives us a very high level of efficiency. if it's cut, it has 24 hours because fund royd works around the clock. it has to because it can't get we instead of growing too high. it also only works on flat fields through soil isn't to clumping because it moves so slowly. however, farm toward is so far, the only full, the economist farming vehicle to be allowed out on german feels of the month. it's 10 years. you can see that it stops, might have in calendar is an obstacle and much more just as something gets in the way whether it's a person, an animal or an object. so the machine is say, so much, you know, a few years ago, a tractor manufacturer fund caused quite a stir with a vehicle design called a salvo. the plan was to use

a fleet of small autonomy networked tractors, instead of a single large one. farmers would supposedly only have to monitor them from a distance, but the project didn't work out in part because wireless data networks in the country side simply weren't powerful enough. time for the agricultural robots at the event to show off what they can do. their designers make a final check the the field has been precisely measured using electronics, and the data has been digitize. the digital map that is bought, it has been transmitted wirelessly to the robots, the farm droid weed, or is the 1st machine to strut at stuff. they weighs less than a ton, so it doesn't compact to soil much. hum to neatly fixed. as a side effect,

you reduce load on this. oh because these machines aren't as heavy as their content for erin, how many say who? the 300 horsepower machine with the tractor and mounted implements are going to weigh at least 20 tons. so then i'm pulling 20 tons across the field funds each tunnel even for engineer thomas had, did see is that's another major advantage of agricultural robots that can be designed to be lightweight. what is the state mom, the guns and making and put in? so product systems have a lot of potential for a more flexible use with less wage, which leads to significantly less soil compaction. and that ultimately pays off in terms of yield, soil life and overall field health and our office hours. the ad pod robot tops the scale that are relatively light, 7 tons, and it's caterpillar tracts. distribute weight better. that also protects the soil . the

light flexible maneuverable, more or less automatic or at times even autonomous controlled by humans. but none behind the wheel. the future of agriculture is already a reality on this german field. one that will help make up for a shortage of workers on the countries farms. the development is read. why do you have a science question, then send it to us as a video, text or voice message? if we answer it on the show, we'll send you a little surprises the thank you. so come on. just ask this question. comes from over a in governor how long contains are be stored?

humans have recorded their languages and their knowledge in the form of drawings and symbols since prehistoric times on the, on log data carriers from back then play tablets or stones, much of the information. so by, for thousands of years, as a result, these ancient data carriers can be read and decoded. today, the modern storage devices can carry a lot more data, even though they're a lot smaller. the live span of most cds and dvds is estimated less than 100 years . the data that's stored on the kind of huge server is operating by large companies should theoretically last forever as long as the days is repeatedly copied. and as long as defective hard drives are replaced in order to keep the ever increasing amounts of data under control, researchers are developing smaller and smaller storage devices. in the future,

synthetic dna could replace conventional data carriers. these artificially generation genetic strands would have more than a 1000000 times the capacity of modern hard drives. and the reconstruction of the under the whole dna has shown the dna molecules are still illegible after thousands of years, or another method of storing days or in courts. despite the technology uses namo lasers to write information into 5 dimensional fused courts of mind boggling speed . these glasses, the size of coins can store up to 360 terabytes and they last a very long time. up to 13800000000 years. whether or not there's someone in 13800000000 years who can read the data is another question. and

that wraps up our overview of artificial intelligence here on dw science show. thanks for joining us. thank you again soon, but tomorrow today the
