disney scraps a multi—million dollar plan to build a corporate campus in florida following an ongoing spat with the governor. i am nick marshall, i'm here at the g7 summit in hiroshima on the agenda, the global economy, china, ukraine and artificial intelligence. welcome to asia business report. it is known as the happiest place on earth but there has been some trouble recently. first, it was the

lay—offs and now, they have pulled the plug on almost $1 billion to build a new corporate campus in florida. the latest and spat between the company and the states republican governor. samir hussein is more stability to their plans because of new leadership of the company and changing business conditions. bob iger returned to the position of ceo at disney in novemberjust 11 months after he left. the changing business conditions are likely to include the tension between disney employees governor rhonda santos. disney is the largest single employer in the state but it came under criticism by the government when disney opposed a new law in the state that would ban the discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity public schools. in a competing statement, ron desantis said the possibility of this new campus two years ago but nothing came of it. in the

decision to scrap the project is unsurprising, given disney's financial straits and declining stock price. the movie and television businesses declined by the theme parks of the company is so famous for, continue to be highly profitable. elsewhere in the united states, kevin mccarthy has signalled the possibility of a breakthrough in that debt ceiling impasse, and comments to reporters, they saw a breakthrough in the talks and suggested a deal could be done as early as next week. expecting that the debt ceiling as soon as the 1st ofjune and i move that raises the possibility of the worlds biggest economy defaulting on its bills. in the debt ceiling concerns are also looming large in the g7 meeting in the city of the set to take off and joe

biden had to cut short his itinerary because of this. let's bring in a correspondent who is in hiroshima for us as if they did not have enough to talk about with this debt ceiling issue, it's something else they have to discuss. yes, welcome _ else they have to discuss. yes, welcome to _ else they have to discuss. yes, welcome to hiroshima - else they have to discuss. yes, welcome to hiroshima and - else they have to discuss. ye: welcome to hiroshima and things are about to get under way very shortly between the worlds richest countries. but what you're saying here by the us debt ceiling, it does plug into global concerns and quite interesting way. two ways, because amid all the worries about china or the stock of economic coercion, the war in ukraine and the knock on effect thatis ukraine and the knock on effect that is out on the global economy, another worry could be the fragile us economy. the worlds biggest economy doesn't have defaulting some kind of government shuts down, the big countries around the world, this region looking at this and thinking, what kind of effect is that going to have on our

prosperity here? and another way this is significant is the fact that president biden had to cut short his asia pacific trip and he was supposed to go to new guinea, meet leaders in australia. it's going to be used by his detractors, detractors of washington as a way of framing the lack of commitment the us might have in they made a big deal of tilting towards the end of the pacific they have strong allies to economically and militarily but the fact that they have to prioritise domestic issues instead of going to developing countries on the one hand like new guinea and also develop partners like australia, it is going to be used against the us and in economic and diplomatic sense as well. all and in economic and diplomatic sense as well.— sense as well. all these issues are interconnected, _ sense as well. all these issues are interconnected, the - sense as well. all these issues are interconnected, the war. sense as well. all these issues are interconnected, the war in| are interconnected, the war in ukraine causing inflation, causing this and so on and the economic agenda that those leaders will be talking about.

the two issues that loom large is how the g7 leaders are putting pressures on russia, hurting it economically and militarily, wejust hurting it economically and militarily, we just served hurting it economically and militarily, wejust served in the last hour, from us officials that tighter sanctions are going to be imposed to her brush on the battlefield and britain is trying to impose some of russian diamond band as well and how far the sanctions are going to go and how they will close the polls and how they will invade the sanctions, —— invade some to go on. in china is not here but looms large over the idea of economic coercion, china weapon eyes and its economy to put pressures and disagreements, presenting a

united front on the perceived threat is also going to be something we are watching. thank you so much for that and nick will bejoining us in the afternoon and to stay tuned for that. in addition to those economic issues, the rapid progress of artificial intelligence is also expected to be high on the agenda in hiroshima. last month, digital ministers agreed on the need towards a adopt this. seeing the rights of tools and it can write essays and computer programme. i spoke to one of the centres for emerging technology and he explained what regulations are needed stability are two major types of concerns when it comes to these generative ai systems. one bucket was the dated that

they are trained on sometimes scraped from the web and include a lot of sensitive data or copywritten material and there is uncertainty about the legal ramifications of that. there's also lots of concerns about the way i puts these models might be used or misused, including misinformation purposes were students writing essays or regulation brightly has to do with navigating the difficulty posed by those two types. ripping off other peoples work and also the spread of misinformation, how can companies and governments prepare for that? sex, companies and governments prepare for that?— prepare for that? a great question _ prepare for that? a great question and _ prepare for that? a great question and our- prepare for that? a great | question and our senators prepare for that? a great. question and our senators is done a fairamount question and our senators is done a fair amount of research into the misinformation is use of these models and while we have talked a lot about the risk of malicious actors

deliberately spreading misinformation, i think it is a bigger danger that people are starting to use these models as their search engines. it is well—known that they make up facts and claim things that are not actually true and that may actually cause lots of misinformation and meaningful confusion in the future. the copyright issue is potentially even harder but the way the model works is that after they are trained on some data, they have a propensity to output very similar content and it is really hard to remove that capability after it is trained which means it is hard to have some sort of opt out system for artists as we have seen with other technologies. the supply and the issue _ other technologies. the supply and the issue of— other technologies. the supply and the issue of supply - other technologies. the supply and the issue of supply chains | and the issue of supply chains are also likely to be discussed at the g7 and the block is actually invited the chair of
