pedro casea was impeached and arrested. after trying to dissolve congress police have been out in force as his supporters demand his release. arianna sanchez reports from lima, anger mountain in the central indian region of him. the whiteness, at least 20 people were wounded in clashes with the police. he's one officer was taken hostage. here in the south of the country, protesters blocked the mean highway. fed up with what they see is a corrupt political class. movement are out demonstrating from north to south, most of them with the same demands, even if you, i mean, because it's really a political definitely close congress and let all the law makers go. they do not represent us on the form of god, and when i'm good. how can we trust watty? she said, if president castilla goes, i do too. and she did not stand by what she promised for her 3rd day in office precedent. the novel was this for in

a new cabinet asking each minister the same question, what i would do, you swear not to be involved in corruption. but before the ceremony was over, corruption, accusations surrounding the new prime minister had already surface jovial gopro robasho life. i am concerned with the appointment of a mediocre cabinet and consequently that it will not be capable of generating enough political strength to quell the protests that are still small. but already all over the country. that that's why 87 percent of peruvians want to congress this whole they do has had 6 precedence in the last 6 years. moved from are leaders, are either in jail or under investigation for corruption. anger is her when, because i rested in that case because i and many i know hard to believe that can be done with an american class. former president, the lucas,

the you left office with a 25 percent approval rating. he's facing 6 corruption charges, and one of rebellion. theo says his arrest this arbitrary, any legal, he's currently serving a 7 day preliminary detention. a judge has denied his petition for release whether protesters support the former precedent or not, multiple agency, they will much into their voices who finally heard, and in as anxious and to see that not been. well, china 0 co with policy has been one of the toughest in the world, with mandatory regular testing and quarantine and medical facilities. but after rare protest, the government dropped most of the district measures and eased others. nevertheless, the impact isn't what was expected. as iran con reports, he'd think that after imposing some of the toughest coven 19 restrictions on the planet, lifting them would fill the streets and cafes with people and life be getting back

to normal. by getting rid of measures like forcing people into quarantine count, letting people isolate a home and allowing free trouble within the country. china may have stopped the protest it took place last week, and citizens have express relief. but this is now happening. people are still afraid to go out and we'll hand where the 1st cases of cov 19 were discovered. it's still mostly empty, and business owners are worried about the years. businesses are struggling to hold on. let's see how it goes. after things have opened up, we'll have to see if there are any travelers. we have to see what the footfall will be like if things are still the same. next year people will have to leave. people are staying away because they're afraid, the lifting of the restrictions will mean more people will be exposed to the virus . but the government is working to reassure people that they are safe to get back to their life. one of the other big worries is the lack of medical supplies and testing kids, but pharmacists in southern china say once disrupted supply chains and are

functioning as they're supposed to. there have been times when we've run out of stock because demand has significantly increased, but we've made some adjustments. so if we run out of certain items, they will be restocked the next morning. it'll take a while for people to begin to get back some semblance of a normal life. the chinese government is pushed the narrative. the only way you deal with cov 19 is that you don't have any cases, a tall, but its own health experts are now saying by scrapping regular testing infections are going up. not so say the government health authorities reported 1661 new infections for beijing on saturday. down 42 percent from 3974 on december 6, a day before the national policies were dramatically relaxed. transitioning from a 0 covey policy to a deal with coven policy is going to take some time and opinion that health experts and the government seem to agree on. but how that transition is managed is in

dispute with health official fairing a mass outbreak, but beijing's worried that the tough restrictions on movement that lead to rare protests and open quarters of the government will flare up again. among con, our desert still had only out. is there a news our were alive to our world cup studio with john, i guess, raska for the latest the head of the semi finals at cats are 2022 ah. other wash out of a weekend in northern california. hi for one. thanks for joining in. this is a picture on sunday. the rain has come as far south as los angeles in san diego. a fresh feel. elijah's 15 degrees winds not as bad through s f in that snow in that searing nevada is moving across the rockies. that's going to sparks some severe storms in the southern plains. in the days to come, things are winding down though in western canada the pacific northwest. and we've

ah, ah, ah, ah. welcome to walk up to day. i'm john again raska, i would live at all studio on tao. how's waterfront in the house nation castle? we started with 32 teams, and only full remain as we count down to the semi finals. france, carry on that journey in casa, and they looked to end the 60 year white school, the defending champions, to lift the trophy padding home in england, play as se, bag advise after that quarter, final exit. and the pride of africa,

morocco prepare for the biggest stay in the continent for full history. with joining me in the studio offer book unless jemila and zach jalap, but we will get that thoughts in just a moment. but let's start with the defending well cut champions. france who've been celebrating reaching the semi finals the team received the heroes welcome as they returned to the hotel, following the course of final victory over england, france are preparing for this 7th semi final in the tournaments history. no team is successfully defended the well cuts his brazil a 1962. this was the contrasting scene, though it england's hotel gala southgate and team heading home jude bellingham signed autographs, announced funds to stick with the team. this is the 7th time england of been knocked out at the court to final stage of a weld cup. while his,

the action from the mat shit. i'll bite stadium. it was frank went ahead through early and too many calling his shocked pulse keep jordan picks good. early in the 2nd off england were war to the penalty when buckeye, as psycho was found in the box and harry kane e. i see the soft level white, greenies england, those scoring record a 53. then came the late drama, olivia jewelry storing to reclaim the lead for france, that england have a chance to level for a 2nd time and say, oh hernandez gave away another penalty. this time came sky, his stride into the stands indian couldn't manage an equalizer like bronze claim to ha ha, he won victory. this is the 1st meeting of the nations in the knockout stages of a major tournaments. mal co and phones compared to those were we know it can be very dangerous on accounts for attack and this kind of match is one of fine margins being efficient in the to penalty areas in ours and in there's,

even if part of our success came from cane missing is penalty even so we shout an incredible spirits altogether. the subs the starts us. even the players on the bench pushed every wants to go above and beyond. i'm very proud of how they're free, not only tonight, but through the whole tournament for some young players have announced themselves on a world stage. i think we've shown a different side of ourselves in terms of the way that we've played. we've shown character to come back from going behind tonight. um, which we stood. pressure expectation, everything really. so i couldn't ask more of the group replies or the group hist off. they couldn't have given any more. well let's bring in general zak. now, for chats about that game, sac england, fans must be feeling very deflated. what did you make of that performance in that match entry this tournament? you know, war i'mma. i feel really proud like i really,

really do. i think coming to foreman's england, went from then a more conservative approach of a 3 the back formation. and i'm trying to maybe let people come at us and got them on the counter attack. and in this game, and in this tournament we've, we've tried to get for the back and try and be strong and try and use possession and use the plays that we have our disposal really well coming to this sort of an arrows. what about phil voted? and whether he would play, and i think by the end of it, we had a really, really good go. it's a and i don't think we can be too disheartened over we'll happens. let's talk about canes. penalty may say, because, well, he didn't look exactly comfortable with the 1st penalty they take. what do you think happened with the 2nd one? i think the 2nd one is the most pressure i've penalty he's ever taken. to be quite honest, obviously he'd taken one of the euros as well and a man to put that home. but in this case, to be in the quarter finals against france, you've only got a couple of minutes left of the game you've been. he scored your 1st one you're against your teammate as well, who supposedly they haven't actually trained penalties against each other,

but still that's a whole psychological effects. and look, i'd still make hurricane take every single penalty or from here for england from now on budget. think that's one they missed and sometimes he missed penalties and it's unfortunate that it was that one he missed. yeah. ok, gemma, you watched fans how impressive when they well probably boss and they are vast tag game that we have seen so far. but they have a lot of resources and english that they dated really weren't able to, to put to how did the fans, to what degree alone on, on in there. but at the end of the day they shands, it's what they have much more that only and baba i think one day yeah, one of the most reliable squats into into chart. no men. so it was a favorite probably to, to get to that semi finals and they could impose themselves, even though i did say, i know for knockouts, that just there was a little bit of flag that a for friends to zack thoughts on the french team. anyone particularly impressive in that team for you? yeah, i think that we can space

a lot of talk about caleb by and certainly so he's all to be the best player in the world. but the guy that really for me, so the show kept franz taking over as to u haul times was until increase when i think he's all going to be player the tournament. he's really incredible for france. i'm doing everything from them from creating shaw says to taking the shots when needed to doing the defensive work as well. and i think they've got a really nice bit of getting into this. told him when can tape was injured when popo was injured? he didn't know whether that caught him. it field is going to shape up a grievance. been fantastic for it. so he's really been a shining light at jemma. we haven't seen a team defense that well title for 60 years since brazil did it. italy also did it, but previously, before brazil is this the team do you think that will finally the french team that will finally defend their title? yeah, well, it's very difficult to manage success. and with that laptop for years, it's been very difficult. that's why we haven't seen a defending champion, making it to the last 8th in the last 24 years. this means that it's really

difficult. what's happened with friends 1st, they had a very reliable team. second, they had a lot of injuries that maybe now we're going to see that it was something lucky because, or even going on for the injury is that we pull them, have seen try many in the star. we maybe it will enough scene doodle into 9 position. eventually the chunks have to do that and, and know that they have passed the scores because the last year to the spain job money, they, what are the feet that the, the group state. so i think they, they get rid of that cords of the defending champions and they are ready to make it again. all right, germans act, thank you very much. we'll come back to you in just a minute because for my england, international and broadcast at gary neville spoke to us earlier and gave us his reaction on england's defeats. we played well and i think that is in board. swing them. we felt sometimes going out of school in this, in like 20 years, quite inferior, where we've played the edge of our box. we've been quite defensive. we hope to get

that piece goal or accounts or thought. whereas last night i felt we really too played well in possession. some of the big decisions on the night were quite follows. we didn't have the big moments, but i think overall we played well just both good seems and we just got the wrong side. the lines, you know, i think it's so funny like england fans when they talk even before the tournament started, they're like so down and so negative about england all the time. oh, where does that come from? it comes in tens and decades of experience of failure. 1966 last time we were in the trophy with the men see women see this proud in the last 12 to 18 months, but we've not success with the men the same for so long that we've got so much heartache in the quarter finals in the semi finals in group phase that we're all most used to it now whereby we just feel like we're just not going to go over the line. i think it's like it's seriously, but we still have hope in the spirit. you know, we still of our football team, right. it's the hope that chelsea right it is over the kills is and that's what

happens every single time this morning. we will have our football team. we love our football. everyone knows that football and we get carried away a little bit. we think we're going to win when we win the game against senate golf 3. now we think we're going to win the sodom and it will home again. we're packing bags. you think garris fosgate will say, i think you might stay for more so it's obviously a team of the euros. i think that there's not your time now really on one front, but he could do it feels like he's taken as far as he can. maybe i feel like he should carry on freight the moment he's got the trust. the think of the people in the country is deliberate. good results for england. but he'll make that decision that he wasn't committing to stay and last night, which i thought if he was gonna stay, it probably would. but he just said the sensible thing that we'll discuss things with the f a and see how it goes. but i hope you can stay for at least one most ornament. well, thousands american fans have traveled to cats are as that team progresses through the tournament on

a historic run to the semi finals the hero against portugal. and the last 8 was strike, a use of m city high school, the only go at alpha mom, a stadium, rock her half feet in belgium and spain as well as portugal to reach this state. they're really conceded one goal in the world cup as well. and that was an angle that coach says it's no flakes. they reached the semifinals to build on one to launch bow. even if you don't have as much talent as much quality as much money. if you work hard enough and you show that desire and passion and belief than you can succeed, i think my plays have shown that it's no miracle. i think that many of you are going to say it's a miracle, especially in europe. but we've played croatia, belgium spine, portugal without letting in a goals. that's not a miracle. it's. that's the result of hard work. an african teams arab teams work hard about. i'm not getting carried away because i know we could have conceded, but we've made up people happy, proud, and we've made the continent happy and proud. and i think we've made so many people

around the world happy. when you watch rocky, you want to support rocky balboa because of his heart and commitment, and i think where the rocky of this world cup, ah, well jemma, let's bring you in. now. how surprised were you that the moroccans went on to beat portugal? not surprise. i was surprised at that that way in their opening game where they hauled a crash. has me feel so well. i was shocked. surprise, when they defeated belgium. there i was surprised, but gwen, i've seen what they have been able to do that the way they play against the spain. i wasn't surprised. of course they were not the favorites to, to the fidel burtwell and to be in the semi finals. i mean that, that belgium game was that 1st ever winning a woke up. so that was a surprise. but the way their dad that he'd managed to do this, a young team with his friends g, they play as locos, they have absolutely beyond that, a good dogs, no pressure, and that be tally

t. i was not surprised at sac. rinaldo, come on to some criticism there and board not acknowledging the other players on his team, but also his opponents, the winning opponents. you'll take on that. yeah, i think it's quite a sad, sad end to what it feels like run out his last chance. it may be getting woke up glory of portugal. obviously he was featuring at the beginning and then ended up getting a benched. probably the right decision if we're being brutally honest. i know there are a lot of fans out there for rinaldo and i just think, look, if you all you've been knocked out the woke up. it's not necessary you all about you, you know, is going to happen if you're walking off the pitch not say, commiserate to your teammates, you know, they're going to be looking at, you know, i think is maybe not the best. it was the best, but sometimes people get caught up in the moments and, and i think it's a, it's hard to maybe think you'll describe what he was thinking in the moment. that credit to morocco that the 1st african arab teen to reach the semi final. but well, cup, how good was that performance get really, really good? why re lack of america is they, they've come here may know their strengths and their weaknesses,

and they know they have to maybe play a little bit more conservative football with and play a little bit more on the brake. and they do that really, really well. they're frustrating or their opponents and the other side they have to compared to all the other nations, is the fats. the support they've got in that stadium is crazy. that noise is being made frightened. i mean, if i pressure booklet i've not heard of, i was that wouldn't really take me back and, and make you have to kind of re game my thoughts really, my actions. i think that they kind of look at a 12 mom there. it's impressive to see the really yeah, we've had the fancy that is like i world cup. i'm gemma, where have this young generation of moroccan players come from because there's an interesting link. isn't there with spain? yeah, i actually, i almost half of the squad morocco where not barton, in morocco, where to gordon in europe and they learn to be a football players in the best aeroplane academies. a lot of them in the spain, rural madry. it's not let it goes heavy. yeah. and barcelona, and a lot of this play years went to these academies and they had the chance to plague

with us, fain hockey me went to that this them wanted as well. and they say that they be them feel like home, because a lot of these players have suffer with racism and not be feeling well treated in spain. and although to rope young countries. so when they have to peak, they choose to play for moral cause. so now they have, it's not only that they have been likely to have all these golden generation, but they also worked a lot. they had a lot of a scout that is moral coin, knew it up, picking display years. and now recently in 2009, they opened a huge chunk with both complexes near robots, so they invested a lot of money in having this players back and playing a squad. they're very competitive them. well, we were joined earlier in the studio by woke up when i have you martinez who won with spain in 2010. he watched morocco up close earlier in the tournament when they knocked out the current spanish team in the last 16. latina says he wasn't shocked . to see them beats portugal after the game, i with the spam as for price,

how they play the great game. they often break combat game they play altogether. i also they have a lot of quality whiskers. she, jake hockey, me. i'm in the seuss being amazing. and i think it's a big surprise and nobody's picked that from morocco. but at this point, i think they deserve to be here. and let's see what happened next. mexican, let's expand a little bit on rinaldo. we saw, i mean if he's been on the bench for the last 2 matches, as we know, a lot has been reported, a lot has been said, just looking post national, shaking hands with, with the opponents walking off the field without acknowledging his teammates. what's your opinion on what's going on? while i can stand is the last chance to get the, i don't know if he's going to continue a don't think so in the, in the national team. but you know, a lot of people is watching you out of the gates and i think it's important you

know, to, to be made with the example for them. well, do you think he was a little bit disrespectful? no, there's like it. but you know, i think i would so he will screen maybe emotion too. yeah. yeah. maybe he has one to to be alone. it's a big suck to to lose. but yeah, maybe i will have act in another way, but they can understand him. so argentina take on croatia, morocco play the defending champions, franz, gemma, how do you see these semi finals playing out? i think it will be details that will decide who are in the final, but there isn't any new world champion since 2010 a spain and these fellas how difficult is to the world champion if you haven't done it before. so i think the final will be argentina, france, and maybe frances,

lightly favorites, but i will then be shocked if the, if the final is gray shamrock on either to because this is that walk up of this room, right? so that's right. this is the will cover shocks, isn't it? is that i'm sorry, is it easier? do you think to be favorites or underdogs going into a well cup? semi final. oh, i think on the docs. because if you, if you lose, then you know, you know what people are expecting you to with anyway, i don't see you don't have the pressure. i think if your favorite like problems, most morocco, people were expecting you to beat morocco and if you don't that base the, that's the headline story or is if you're morocco and you lose the fraud, you know what you play fonts. it is what it is of the world champions. they've got kill them back by the bought by thursday fighters. it was, it was expected, so there were full is left pressure there. however, if you do pull out of the upset that, oh my goodness, you broke out into the final walk case. that would be all right guys. well, it is a rest day at the well cup. no rest. frost here at out there and no rest for the band either across the right, the coordination, we will be back close all thanks to jemila and set it up for joining me. here in

the connie studio, we'll have more in our next well cup special at 1830 gmc, now it's back to during in the studio, so thank you so much swell still ahead on the al jazeera news, our, we take a look at the latest artificial intelligence chart, fos, and what it has to offer it's users. ah, we are all principals, even people far away are so helping with the environment. problems in the amazon because they are consumers. i teach kids about the threats that oceans are facing today. i've been working in earnest, trying to find ways to get this language helped. kids want to wait and do as the ocean why and what are you going to do to keep out of the sort of language that keeps the red blood women. right. say that they have want to circle back in their fight for equality and got them. eric, i was told the think that's what texting women were made. the challenge in the

region. i will not being pro like i want to sleep. we don't have read them in that study about 2 weeks now. i say 3 days. journey to a show. question, right? so on this choice of countries, someone needs to rebuild lou ah, hello again. so a new shot bought that uses artificial intelligence to generate human like responses has been surprising. user is online, since it's launched this month,

it's called chat g p t, which stands for a generative pre trained transformer. so the user types in a question or a prompt and the program types out a response, a uses a massive data base of techs, drawn from the internet as well as human training and consume, sharif shows us how these so called chat boards deliver answers at high speeds so let's see what it can do. let's begin with an easy question and that would be how do you make chocolate cake. ok, we seem to have the ingredients, algeria, that's pretty quick. second question, let's try something harder. is artificial intelligence capable of free will? now finally, one question to the boss might be, continue enemy, how do you get a promotion? so some useful tips there may be, i should implement them. so we have one minute,

3 questions. i'm pretty quick on 1st. let's look to david duncan, who's a professor at northern illinois university, is also the author of the machine question. he's joining us from chicago. welcome to al jazeera. so what do you think is different about this chat box? so we've had checkbox for a very long time since wise and created the eliza chat about back in the mid 1900 sixty's. and previous tripod has been formulated by explicit instructions that programmers, right? they try to anticipate what we will ask it in the sort of anticipate possible answers. the difference with the new large language models is they are machine learning based systems that are trained on very large cor pie of human texts. so they basically scour the internet for all kinds of digitized textual data, and then use that as the basis of generating their responses based on a statistical pattern seeking function where they figure out what is the most

reasonable sequence of words that can be generated as a result and as a product of this, these generative models produce results and oftentimes even surprise their own programmers because they are able to create outcomes that are not readily anticipated by those who develop the technology. right? so the idea of relying on a machine to have conversations and then generate responses doesn't not raise some concerns. and if so, what are they? you had said there is a number of concerns. let me just highlight 3 of them that i think are very important. one has to do with the truthfulness or the validity of what is generated by these models. these models are only finding patterns of linguistic tokens in their data and arranging words in ways that make sense. statistically, they have no knowledge of the world or understanding of what it is they say. and so even if they produce results that seem reasonable,

there is no way in which you can say that they have authored those with any sort of knowledge about the. ready world of which they are speaking. secondly, because there is often in these large datasets systemic bias and prejudice that come from the human texts on which they're trained. we may reproduce bias and prejudice in the outcomes that are produced by these models. and as a result, they can oftentimes produce outcomes in their textual data that reproduce historically troubling biases and prejudice that we find in the data sets. finally, we using writing to really benchmark in the evaluate student progress. and, you know, with students using these technologies, we have to now begin the question whether or not writing is the best test of our thinking capability and critical capabilities in our students, right? so let me ask you this, then what is the future look like for artificial intelligence chat box?

could they, for example, or reinvent or even replace search engines? i think that's one of the predictions that people have right now. when you search on google, you're just given sources to go to that you have to look through to find answers to your questions where the chat box are designed to answer questions, you know very directly. and so they're more sort of an answer engine than they are a search engine. thank you so much. david duncan, for joining us from chicago. thanks. now, cuba struggling to get some of its oil storage facilities up and running after a large fire. it was caused by lightning strike in august and took a week to extinguish 16 people were killed. cuba is facing the severe energy crisis and a battle to resolve the problem without its crucial supertankers. loss of the face continues to function on a limited capacity. we now have less storage capacity of crude oil,

but we have not slowed down the services with immense effort must keep on working at all. and canada, hundreds of people have been marching for biodiversity and human rates in the streets of montreal. the demonstrations are taking place during the un cop 15 bio diversity conference organizers say politicians need to work towards an ambitious global framework to tackle the world's biodiversity crisis. delegates are aiming to reach a new agreement to replace the one signed in 2010, which did not have its targets many millions of monarch butterfly. butterflies have descended on central mexico as part of their annual winter migration. and as many well rapid reports from mitchell co on that mitchell con state efforts to protect their hibernation grounds are more important than ever. it's one of the most spectacular mass migrations in the animal kingdom. monarch butterflies,

millions of them arriving at their winter habitat in central mexico. this year, the international union for the conservation of nature officially designated the migrating monarch butterfly as endangered. yes. oh, this is like an alarm bell over the population of the migrating monarch butterfly. and it's a warning sign of what's happening to pollinating insects. experts say the use of pesticides along with a loss of habitat, are the biggest threats to the species. increased forest fires and unusual weather patterns linked to climate change have also been linked to their decline. this means protected forests like l rosario, the largest butterfly sanctuary, and central mexico are of vital importance. they may be difficult to see from a distance, but these trees behind us are absolutely covered in monarch butterflies. now tourists are welcome at this protected butterfly sanctuary. here in central mexico, but visitors are asked to keep their voices down so as to not disturb the

butterflies. for many the up close encounter with millions of these vibrant butterflies is a once in a lifetime experience. one that can turn just about any one into a champion for conservation, if one of them think once it's very important to protect this natural reserve, which the butterflies at themselves seek out for hundreds of years. indigenous communities in this part of the country have associated the monarch butterfly with the returning souls of the dead. yeah, they are colorful. ballet has inspired or in dance and even become a symbol of mexican cultural heritage. often feature during mexico's annual day of the dead celebration of a cruise. a conservationist at el rossetto says protecting the floors were monarch . butterflies hibernate is also a way to safeguard mexico's natural resources for human populations. as any, more than than ever. voskus is having well preserved forests, it's very important because that's where the water we need to survive comes from water that goes all the way to mexico city,

which experts in mexico see that despite the monarch being designated as endangered, there is evidence that conservation efforts are working, but ultimately the future of this i conic insect, depends on the continued protection of their natural habitat. manuel up a little al jazeera, central mexico, a more attorney and mortality, and man accused of coordinating attacks that kill 38 people. molly has been extradited to the u. s. a quarter molly had sentence for was the man to death for the 2015 tax and the capital obama code. the victims included 5 un workers and a us citizen of a team of scientists and australia have discovered the complete fossil of a 100000000 year old marine rectal the bones of the ellis, missouri were found in a remote part of the queensland deserts, the long neck creature existed at the same time as the dinosaurs in the early cretaceous period. experts say it's rare to find a whole skeleton in one piece,

and the fossil could provide clues about how the ancient animal actually lived. thanks for watching the news, our analogy 0 back in a little into as much more up with with ah

a already for the 1300000 fans. ah. telling me that only the beginning the noise like a make or break moment for synagogue. happy. here i can tell you that bands with the stadium, so make sure they got into that. they would not happen. do believe when argentinians are feeling here in central gwin aside and here in the center of so you could all meant to be be given. but thinking that south korea would love an

opportunity for found to be creative and celebrate their team. la, a conflict between india and pakistan. prestige kept mounted one in one east, the kashmiris, i knew it on al jazeera ah, ukraine's president excuse us. russian forces of turning the city of bus route into ruins, saying the situation in the east is very difficult. ah, you're wondering, al jazeera life from a headquarters in ohio de navigates are also coming up a suspect accused of involvement in the 1988 bombing. if a u. s. airliner over lockerbie scotland is in us custody. peruse.
