6:09 am
nasha, in total, our defense industry produces year on year about the same amount of defense missiles for various purposes. as all the combined military industrial enterprises of the whole world, our production is comparable to global production, and therefore we have something to rely on. and all of this cannot that inspire confidence that victory will be ours. russia's foreign minister says the kremlin needs yet to see any serious proposals from the west on resolving the ukraine conflict. so gay lab rove was speaking in moscow as part of an annual review of russia's foreign policy. the solution, can you hear the mantra in western capital's that you can't talk about ukraine without ukraine. this is all nonsense. in fact, it is the west that decides for ukraine. they forbade zalinski to conclude an agreement with russia at the end of march last year. even though such an agreement was already in place, the west sides, and it decides for ukraine without it. ukraine has been the focus of discussions
6:10 am
among leaders attending the world economic forum and diverse un secretary general antonio but tad, i, she's there. and he's been talking to our diplomatic editor james base, says negotiations between russia and ukraine seem impossible at the moment. ukraine was once again the center of attention or the world economic forum in davos was speech is by the nato secretary general. the german chancellor and the ukrainian president who some time ago came up with what he calls a 10 point plan to bring peace to his country. but the un secretary general who i spoke to after he spoke to the world economic forum, says he currently doesn't see any meaningful chance for negotiations at the present moment, sir, in my contact, sir, with both part is in my valuation of the situation. i think that if one looks at the positions of the most, the ukraine and the russian federation,
6:11 am
they are completely or posts. and so the possibility of a negotiation at the present moment doesn't seem possible. and i don't think that the both sides will be ready to do it. her with the oh, what we are witnessing them. i am convinced that the both sides believe that time is working on their favor. and so the, the chance of an agreement, sir, at the immediate, the time it is not that your one big success in the last year. clearly you mentioned it earlier on was the black sea grain initiative getting the grain ships moving again. but recently you cancel the un fact finding mission into the destruction of the allan in prison. and he resisted calls from western countries to have an investigation into the use of iranian drones. i spoke to one senior ukrainian official who said your effectively, even though it was a great success being blackmailed by the black sea grain initiative,
6:12 am
russia is threatening to pull out stopping you from doing any of these days. that's not true, that's not the case. and the mission to 11, if that 11 cows castle, for the simple reason that the rational target is never provided with the the security conditions as be necessary for the mission to take place. and in relation there is no, we have not the right to do any investigation. that is a total misperception we had in the past in other circumstances, in the emissions that went to look into the bodies of the b sides. and this is something that we can see that case by case, according to what we believe is a positive contribution to the situation on the ground among western leaders. much of the discussion here has been about what further military help can go to ukraine . a lot of the focus on german tanks, many trying to persuade the german chancellor to get permission for the job and
6:13 am
tanks that have been given to other e. u and nato countries to be transferred to ukraine and to persuade germany to send some of its own tanks to the country. a big meetings coming up on friday. the u. s. air base in germany in ramstein, where ukraine's allies will discuss the way forward. new zealand prime minister just syndrome. busy is announced, she stepping down next month after 5 and a half years in office. she says she doesn't have the energy or inspiration to seek re election in october. the one global respect for her response to the christ church mosque attacks in 2019. and they government tough restrictions at the start of the pandemic. but her popularity has been on the slide at home. this summer i had hoped to find a way to prepare, not just for another year, but another tune because that is what this year requires. i have not been able to do that. and sorry to tell you,
6:14 am
i am not seeing that i will not be seeking religion. and then my tim as prime minister will conclude no later than the 7th of february. why and hey has more now from oakland. the announcement from justin to roger that she would be resigning, came as a complete surprise to every one in new zealand. it wasn't that long ago after all that. she said she would definitely be seeking a 3rd term in office when the election is held this year. and that was the other big announcement from her that the election date has been set for the 14th of october. this year. she of course will not be contesting that election and thank. she says she will be in office no longer than february the 7th. so the labor party caucus will now meet this coming sunday to vote in a new party leader and prime minister. and that person will go on to contest that
6:15 am
election. the timing of this announcement is interesting, and the main reason that she's given full resigning is that it's simply time that she feels she doesn't have what it takes anymore at to leave the country to go for a 3rd term and office. but her popularity, according to opinion polls had been declining, and there was a growing sense that it would become increasingly difficult for her at to win that election, the closer we got to it. so how will she be remembered despite those declining numbers in the opinion polls, she'll go down in history, i think out fairly well in terms of her memory. she'll be remembered as a crisis. prime minister, one who was able to communicate very well, particularly in some of new zealand. darkest times, had she led you zealand through of course, the mosque shootings and christ church in 2019 the for cardi white island volcanic eruption later. that same year that claimed the lives of $22.00 people. and of course, the coven 19 pandemic when she led out what was regarded as
6:16 am
a world leading response to that crisis. but increasingly, new zealand is felt that the government began to overreach. the longer the pandemic went on an effect the since was rightly or wrongly, or that while the rest of the world was reopening ye zealand was taking too long to do so. that history will judge her again as a leader who was able to handle some of these villains darkest moments, perhaps better than anyone else could have. israel's supreme court has ordered prime minister benjamin netanyahu to remove a senior member of his government. we have rolled that aria that he cannot serve as a minister because he was convicted of tax fraud. last year. dairy is a close ally of the prime minister and head of the ultra orthodox shafts party. the decision has sparked fears of a political crisis in the new coalition government who spot leon without me. this is the day of morning when a supreme court intervened in the legislation of a basic law, the court to day cost all lines when it interfered with the law passed by
6:17 am
a majority of 63 people, which expresses the decision of the majority. i didn't believe that the supreme court would intervene. and now it turns out that the court think it is a hit and ruler should remember its place. and the fact that he has to decide which be rights based on the legislation thought. or is there really ari dairy is not fired israeli government as breaking the law. a government that does not obey the law is an illegal government. it can no longer demand that citizens obey the law dos. if our dairy is not fired, israel will be plunged into an unprecedented constitutional crisis, and this will no longer be a democracy, nor will it be a state of law. so have an al jazeera peruse capital on edge. thousands of anti government protest is converge in lima to call for the presidents resignation and pushing the limits of artificial intelligence. we take a closer look at the programs, blurring the lines between art and artifice. ah,

6:25 am
that's an a i image generating tool. and we asked for an image of the theme of man against machine in leo, the davinci style. this is what it came up with. it sets the 3 of the very theme for our discussion right now, man versus machine. well then we asked the chat g p t, that's a chat, bought one of the biggest challenges in 2023 in 3 words. and it said climate biodiversity inequality. finally, we asked the i, i chat, bought to predict its own future. it said evolution spring in toby walsh, he's a chief scientist at the i institute at the university of new south wales in sydney joins us now from j. 4 in, in the a good to have you with us. so 1st of all, is this the inevitable evolution of technology?
6:26 am
but these are gonna be very useful tools. they can do the for these, the, the dirty, dull, difficult, and dangerous. so i don't like writing business letters. these tools to write very capable business letters. i'm not a very good graphic designer. these toes can amplify my ability to design things. so there are many positive uses, but equally, there are lots of challenges that they will throw up or i, but they're not only doing now. you know, the math. they're not only doing multiple divisions, they're, they're taking over the entering an area that we consider human creativity. can they do thing rarely replicate or even surpass human creativity? well, that's a fantastic question and we probably really don't know the answer. ham machines have created things that when doubled as a, a new, an antibiotic that was in found by machine and were suffering from antibiotics. drug resistance to antibiotics and humans are not discovering antibiotics quickly
6:27 am
enough. well, this machine is discovered one m, and it seems to work in a very noble way. and so there is hope for them to be useful, a toaster, not just amplifier muscles, but to amplify our minds. some authors are not happy with the idea that bots can do their work. what sat the crux here is a i making us question, our sense of self worth that we're feeling vulnerable and replaced. yes, i mean that's, i think that's one of the deep questions here. whenever we get machines to do something new, then people think, well, we can always fall back on the idea that we are the only animals the do x that used to be ab, where the, any animals, the do mathematics were computers could do mathematics very well with the i, the animals that are truly creative, that we event new things to do new tools to do those things with well, uh, with that, that superiority is being challenged. is there a needs to and blow the lines a little bit though, even if we say, okay,
6:28 am
this is not necessarily bad. this is progress. but the consumer should know what is produced by a human and what is produced by a bought especially comes to some of those things, like we said, of poems and songs and so on. yes, there is a fantastic question because we are going to be increasingly deceived. by these bots, or any time you see a digital image or hear it, did you did your audio or see some digital video. you have to ask yourself now, was that actually in the real world or is that synthetic and generated by machine because they can, they can generate a audio video and text that is indistinguishable from that or the humans make. and i think we should be warned because in the most valuable thing as our, as our time, that's the one thing the oliver share limited time on the planet. if, if that time can be wasted by the, the infinite patience of the balls,
6:29 am
i was still trying to figure out issues related to regulation of internet. who should do the ambler ring off the lines when it comes to these bots? now we're, we're starting to see some regulation this respect the, the new digital service act and is recurring deep break. so many of your viewers will have seen examples of deep fakes. whether it's a bomb or saying something you never did, or at the present of the grain calling upon his troops to surrender. all depraved, not an existing reality at made by people with a not such good intent. that the eve service act actually has an article $37.00, which is going to require any deep fakes to be identified as such by the social media platforms are one about when it comes to asking chat bots to write your paper for you. plagiarism, academia, also getting into a bit of a gray area there. yes, and it's very difficult to actually identify text is written by
6:30 am
a computer. they're all tools, but they easily circumvented. you can, you can ask chatting p t to write in the style of a, you are 120 to write in the style of a 12 year old. and it will write much more convincing text for 12 years. and if you want, it means yourself, you can get it to ask, ask it to write the style of a chicago, chicago gangster or o roam, shakespeare, whatever your preferences, it will do. so the tool is going to be easy circumvented. so the only way to be sure that things are cheap students are cheating, is actually to put them in exam petitions, put them in a room, make sure they didn't have access to any technology. and it's, it's getting challenging to know what is human from what is thought though what thanks to talking to us, i am not a bought and i've enjoyed talking to toby walsh at the say microsoft has announced plans to cut at least $10000.00 jobs by the end of september, the layoffs will affect about 5 percent of the tax funds workforce. the link 3rd engineers in the gaming division such as x.
