scenes, which is always what i'm i'm interested in. and so i mean, what else does it say to you in a bigger picture about how he worked behind the scenes, how he negotiated with the other justices? you know, katelyn polantz till late 2020. he was always trying to pick off individual justices to try to send the signal that there is. i say the court wasn't going to move too far too fast in either direction. but as you know, he doesn't have that same court. justice kennedy has since left the bench, replaced by brett kavanaugh partner that he had in many of his negotiations with stephen breyer, and he left last year. so we're not going to see as many bridge building cases down the road as we saw prior, caitlin wow. it's like an end of an era. essentially so it shows you how much the court changing has had an impact on. that's right. thank you, joan. always a pleasure. thank you. we're following a lot of breaking news, cnn this morning continues
4:01 am
right now. breaking news. an american reporter has been arrested in russia accused by russia of espionage. we're talking about an american citizen who has now been arrested for what you can assume is doing his job. two black hawk helicopters crashing overnight in kentucky, sudden old house something pop loud, loud bang helicopters from 101st airborne division were on a routine training mission when the incident happened resulted in quotes several casualties. concerns for the health of pope francis as the 86 year old is hospitalist tests showed that he does indeed have a respiratory infection. it's unclear if the leader of the world's nearly 1.4 billion roman catholics will be able to lead the celebration of this weekend's pump. sunday mass and holy week ceremonies the vatican leading up to easter on april 9th. children are dying.
4:02 am
there are six people are dead in that school, including three children, because you guys got rid of the assault weapons ban. talk about protecting our children the same way we protect our president, celebrities. you guys are worried about banning books dead kids can't read. elon musk and other artificial intelligence experts are now calling for an immediate pause in the training of the most powerful ai systems, citing quote profound risk society and humanity. very inventors of the technology. you're saying we can't be responsible for what's going to be done with it. i think it's too late. we've already shown our hand in terms of where this is all headed to say everyone. you got to stop. that's scary to me. this is cnn breaking news. we do have major breaking news detail still unfolding. we're going to bring it to you. here. it is out of russia. the russians have
4:03 am
arrested an american wall street journal reporter and accused him of espionage, claimed he was trying to obtain secret information and that he was spying in the interests of the american government. he is the first american journalist to be detained on spying charges in russia since 1986 remarkable in the wall street journal is now saying they vehemently denied the allegations that are being made by russia. as for the white house, a source tells me the administration is still gathering information regarding evan ceviches arrest they have been in touch with the wall street journal. so for more on this, let's start with matthew chance to his life. in moscow and moscow. matthew what is the latest that we're hearing on this from the russian government and the claims that they're making yeah. i mean, obviously, this is something that we've been tracking for several hours now since yeah, sources here first starting to reveal the idea of the american citizen had been detained on espionage charges. but the russian fsb, which is the successor organization to the kgb, have
4:04 am
now come out with an official statement detailing what has actually happened to what they say has happened. they say that they terminated the illegal activity of an american journalist named him as evan gorshkov. it's an employee. correspondent reporter of the of the wall street journal based here in accredited here for them by the russian foreign ministry . they said this he was on a mission from the american side. to accumulate classified evidence on one of the enterprises of the russian military industrial complex. he was in the process they say of receiving secret evidence relating to that when he was apprehended in the city of yekaterinburg, which is about 1100 miles away from moscow in the urals region of the country and its that region actually one of the main industrial places in the country and there are lots of sort of arms manufacturers, their weapons factories and things like that and so it's a very sensitive area. but you
4:05 am
know, there's obviously been no details on exactly what mr yushkevich was actually reporting on. you mentioned the wall street journal. they initially issued a statement saying they're worried about his safety. now they're issuing a statement saying they categorically deny the charges of espionage. that have been leveled against him by the fsb prosecutors that are engaged in this thing called for his immediate release. but of course this is something that the russians are taking immensely seriously the charges of espionage carrier maximum sentence in this country 20 years, so it's very, very serious. indeed the last report from the journal was march. 28th is when he last reported there and it was on russia's economy start. into to come undone. investment is down laborers scarce budget of squeeze oligarch. there will be no money next. he's been critical of what is happening there. this reporter matthew is accredited
4:06 am
to work as a journalist in russia, but reporters have been operating under strict laws. explain that please. yeah i mean, it's really tough here, particularly since the invasion of ukraine more than a year ago . laws have really been tightened up. basically, the russians have made it illegal to take part in critical reporting to criticize the government to criticize the russian military. it's now carries a very heavy prison sentence, and lots of local journalists have fallen foul of this, but you know, this isn't remember what evan gush covic is accused of his accused of a much more serious offense. that of espionage, which which is an entirely different. category has said the wall street journal have denied that the kinds of things that he's been publishing in the wall street journal. i mean that there are no different to the sort of things that we've all been doing looking at. you know how the special military operation in ukraine as russia calls it is going down with the russian population. but the foreign ministry here in russia says that the things that he was doing had nothing to do with
4:07 am
journalism. so they're standing by. at this point there. arrest matthew chance joining us from moscow this morning, matthew. thank you very much. and joining us now is former cnn moscow bureau chief jill dougherty, who is now an adjunct professor at georgetown university. jill good morning and thank you for being here. i think the context here is really important because you heard matthew saying there something like this has not happened with the u. s journalist since 1986 when that happened in 1986, that was nick daniel off had been arrested, and at the time, he essentially said he believed it was a tip for tat because a soviet citizen had been arrested. he believed he was arrested. we should note that the kremlin has been asked that last week russian citizen was arrested in the us and accused of being a spy. they're not commenting on whether or not that has to do with the arrest of this reporter, but i wonder what you make of that, as we are still trying to figure out more details here. it's entirely possible. i mean, it could be two through chat. there are things that can go on behind the scenes that we don't even know
4:08 am
they could be tick for tat, but i think this is a very disturbing sign because again, that date was nick down off his way back in the mid 19 eighties , and the problem right now is that the laws in russia are even the ones dealing with information period, let alone any alleged espionage are already broadly. worded so that a journalist doing his or her job could easily violate that. whatever the law is, but this is really i agree with matthew. this is much more serious. i think it indicates that the fsb is really cracking down right now, and it presents true problems for the us even the embassy in in russia. right now, the american embassy has very little three few persons. well and it's going to be very difficult to deal with this, but this is a sign. i was looking at the background of evan
4:09 am
gershowitz, and he is an experienced reporter relatively young, but he's worked for agencies in russia for quite a while. i would presume that he speaks russian, and he was probably quite effective in what he was doing in his journalism. but this is this is a real challenge right now, when you look at the data loss situation that was in the reagan administration 86 at the end of the cold war, but we listen, we can't forget. looming over all of this is the war in ukraine, and you know the americans what america is doing in the west to help ukraine. i wonder if that plays if you feel this plays into that. how it offends question. yeah, i would say there's no question um and precisely because if you look at this allegations that the charges that it was some type of espionage in england, as matthew pointed out, there are and it will specifically is an arms manufacturing plant that i found
4:10 am
online and this could be a you know, a reporter could be looking for information to write a story in normal. story but at this point all of this when this goes to trial, and all of this is likely to be secret, so it will be very hard even to understand precisely with their charging him with and trials are secret. it's a it's a serious situation for him to be in jill dougherty. thank you very much. we appreciate you bringing us your expertise this morning on this breaking news story. thanks so much. hmm in the meantime, we have other news to cover here. the u. s army breaking news out of kentucky. this is what's happening here. the u. s army is reporting several casualties after two blackhawk helicopters crashed during a training mission there in kentucky. the military hasn't said how many soldiers were killed or injured , but the army is set to hold a news conference just hours from
4:11 am
now. these are photos of the crash site. it's from our from local radio station w. k d z. you can see a plume of smoke and what looks like a piece of the wreckage witness who lives nearby, describing what he heard right before the choppers went down. two helicopters came over pretty low and all of a sudden, soon as they got over the house, something loud banging. everything shut down just all of a sudden we joined the truck came over here. that's what we've found two helicopters, so we turn now to cnn national security reporter natasha bertrand tracking this story for us from the pentagon. natasha hello? the army set to hold a news conference this morning. and what else do you know? yes we are expecting to hear from them at around 10 a.m. eastern time, but what we know right now is pretty limited. we are told that it was two blackhawk helicopters with 101st airborne division operating in southwestern kentucky that crashed around 10 p.m. on
4:12 am
wednesday night, and they were undergoing a routine training mission, according to a statement from the fort campbell military based on facebook. we are learning. in addition to that there were several casualties. that is what the army is saying they are declining to say at this point, whether there were any how many i should say injuries or even fatalities there were and that is something that we're expecting to hear more about in the coming hours, but the governor of kentucky, andy bashir, he is also weighing in this morning, and he said on twitter that he does expect that there will be several fatalities that have come out of this accident. he tweeted. we've got some tough news out of fort campbell with early reports of a helicopter crash, and fatalities are expected. now unfortunately , these kinds of training accidents are pretty common. in fact, a congressional report from 2019 found that between 22,006 and 2018 about 32% of active duty military deaths were a result of these kinds of accidents. and in fact, just last month blackhawk blackhawk
4:13 am
helicopter with the tennessee national guard. crashed in alabama and everyone on board was killed in that incident as well done alright, natasha bertrand following this breaking news story for us. thank you, natasha. we have a lot of breaking news and a new update that was just in on the pope's condition from moments ago. the vatican says he is quote improving after he spent the night in hospital. the hospital. he has a respiratory infection. we are told in the 86 year old pontiffs does not have covid, which is important to note here, but the vatican does say he rusted well during the night. he even did some work this morning, but it is expected to stay in the hospital for at least the next several days. or cnn. vatican correspondent delia gallagher is live outside of his hospital there in rome. delia what's the latest that we're hearing from the vatican on how he's doing? well you know katelyn polantz to hear certainly compared to the uncertainty of yesterday. we know the diagnosis is a respiratory infection, but this update was very important to understand exactly where the
4:14 am
pope's health is at. it seems to suggest that his health is stable. certainly improving. they say that he is continuing with the medical procedures that they had planned for him for this respiratory illness. which they told us yesterday will take a few days. so we're expecting that. but the fact that he was able to even do some work in his hospital rooms, which, by the way are these five windows with the shutters down just behind me. when popes come to the rome's gemelli hospital, that's where they stay, so i would say a very encouraging report this morning from the vatican course. pope francis is 86 years old. he has a vulnerability to respiratory issues because when he was 21 he had part of his lung. taken out due to a respiratory illness, so obviously very important to monitor this moment with the pope. but i would say compared to yesterday today, bit of a sigh of relief that this update is indeed good. katelyn polantz them are good as well to
4:15 am
gallagher. we know you'll stay on top of it. thank you. nashville now new this morning. natural police officials say that they believe the shooter who killed three children and three adults at the covenant school on monday had weapons training. although it's unclear when and where that training took place. the police are also working to recreate a timeline of the shooters movements on the day of the shooting. they acknowledge the shooter may have made a stop. after leaving the house before but before arriving at the school, this as mourners gathered in nashville to attend a vigil to remember the victims that featured a live musical performance from cheryl crow. yes. i shall. the first lady joe biden was also in attendance at the national vigil and went to the memorial for the victims to lay flowers. also this morning. we're learning that it could actually be several weeks before we even find out if a grand jury
4:16 am
is going to indict former president trump here in new york , cnn has learned that the jury that is investigating those hush money payments that were made to stormy daniels is actually getting ready to go on a break for the most of next month. meantime in washington, the former president is fighting back after several legal defeats in the special counsel's investigation of january. 6th now trying to block some of his former aides from testifying, including his white house chief of staff, mark meadows, after they were told by a judge, they would have to testify. our cnn senior legal affairs correspondent paula reed, is here to break down both of these developments. paula what is the latest on what is happening here in manhattan and isn't definitive. that we are not going to see this indictment, or is it still kind of unknown? great question. katelyn polantz . from the grand jury is likely to ramp up speculation about what's happening behind the scenes with this investigation, but here is what we know. we know the grand jury will meet today, but they're not going to hear evidence in the trump hush
4:17 am
money probe. grand juries hear evidence about multiple cases. we also know that next week they're expected to meet on monday and wednesday as they usually do, but there are also not expected to her evidence on the trump case, but i want to be cautious here. i mean, some outlets are reporting. nothing's going to happen until the end of the month. but i don't think we should go that far. because grand juries this is a secretive procedure. this is also still a fluid situation, so it's not expected that they'll hear anything on the trump case next week, but we're going to continue to keep close to that report. it out because we know that next wednesday they will start a previously scheduled break that spans across several religious holidays and school breaks. now that is something that was previously scheduled. but as i said, people are still going to speculate about what's going on behind the scenes. the former president really said a false expectation by saying he expected to be arrested last week, which was as his own team said not based on any facts based on our reporting right now there is no indication that they are wavering, and this was again a previously scheduled break
4:18 am
breaks for trump's attorneys. and for paula reid, who is covering this story and the other investigations as well. thank you, paula. appreciate that. we're going to continue our breaking coverage here. moscow and kentucky straight ahead following news out of minnesota evacuations right now are underway after 22 cars they were carrying ethanol and corn syrup derailed, authorities are working hard to put out the flames. timing is everything. transportation secretary pete buddha judge is actually going to join us live not just on this, but also more. that's next. if you have diabetes, it's important to have confidence in the nutritional drink you choose. try boostst glucose control. it's clinically shown to help manage blood sugar levels and contains high quality protein to help manage hunger and suppt. muscle health. try boost today. poof the most powerful pet odor eliminator in the world. no harsh chemicals, chemicals, fragrances seriously.

4:23 am
reported a car that had about 40 cars, 14 of them carrying hazardous material, including s and all, which was released, leading to a fire. there's an evacuation about one mile in each direction from the site. this is happening in the community, a small community about 100 miles west of minneapolis. been in touch with the governor. we have fr a personnel on the ground each to is headed there as well. given the hazardous material situation , the most important thing for anyone in the affected area to know you see, you've got to pay close attention to any instructions coming from first responders regarding the evacuation or anything else that local officials are telling you. that is for your safety to make sure that no one is injured. and as of now, i have not seen a report of any fatalities or injuries again. obviously preliminary information right now, but we'll be following closer. the secretary. the last couple of times we've had you on. we've spoken about these derailments in ohio and other places. i'm sure people at home
4:24 am
people in the community they want to know. why does this keep happening? so the reason that we are pushing so hard on railroad safety is to make sure there are fewer of these incidents. the reason that there are fewer than there used to be in the past is regulation and enforcement. but there's still far too many, and this happens more often than i think most americans realize this is exactly why we have called on congress to create tougher fines and penalties and more authorities. there's bipartisan legislation that would do just that. and in the meantime, without waiting for congress, we as a department has stepped up safety audits, taking other steps so that we can hold railroad companies accountable. now the freight railroads often resist this kind of regulation and enforcement. but this is a big part of why we have far fewer derailments in accidents than we did 10, 20 or 40 years ago. it's also the path to having fewer these accidents that we do right now, as you say , far fewer, but i mean what has
4:25 am
happened now? his catastrophic especially when it comes to ohio. i want to move on now because we have so much news to discuss here and ask you about the breaking news coming out of moscow, the arrest of an american wall street journal reporter evan gorshkov it in in russia on suspicion of espionage . wall street journal is denying these allegations. how is biden administration? responding this morning, secretary. well i'll defer to the white house and the state department on an official response. what we know is that this is a country that believes in freedom of the press. and we know that those kinds of first amendment freedoms and rights that are so important to us here in the u. s are not respected in a country like russia, but again , obviously, his news unfolds. i know there will be more from the administration on this. you have not been briefed on this. no i've been focused on the transportation side. alright let's talk about then what's happening in texas and you're in
4:26 am
texas as part of the biden administrations, investing in america towards highlight improvements the administration is making to air travel and two infrastructure. the agency has announced that americans could see a 45% increase in flight delays this summer. why are you still expecting such huge delays? well we're doing everything that we can to make sure that airlines take good care of passengers and the interventions that we had last summer, i think have made a big difference. first of all, seeing the rate of those cancelations and delays improve over the course of the summer, going into thanksgiving and importantly, when they do happen, making sure that passengers are taken care of going into last summer, almost none of the top 10 airlines guaranteed things like meals or hotel vouchers or brown transportation to re bookings. now nearly all of them do because of the work that we've been doing, and we're going to keep pushing now, as we head into spring break and into the summer, i think that many of those improvements are going to pay off, but airlines are still
4:27 am
recovering from the pandemic. we're working on things with the faa as well. although air traffic control i want to emphasize is not the reason for the majority of delays and cancelations, and we're going to stay on them to make sure that they take care of customers and passengers to make sure this year is better than last year and on into the future, so another key accomplishment by plants it out over the next three weeks is the inflation reduction act. but senator joe manchin, who played a key role in shaping that bill says that president biden betrayed him writing this administration is attempting at every turn to implement the bill it wanted, not the bill congress actually passed. your response to that secretary. everything that we do in this administration conforms to the law as written as passed by congress and as signed by the president. of course, we're in constant dialogue with partners in congress who have shaped this legislation the way that the administration is advancing. this is designed to ensure that we have economic security that,
4:28 am
for example, the electric vehicle revolution is a made in america electric vehicle revolution that benefits american workers and creates american jobs. some of the factories and facilities under construction that i've been able to visit in places like glendale , kentucky and risotto kansas that will each employee that 4000 people are extraordinary. and of course, this is also a key part of the fight against climate change. we're of course , always ready and willing to work with congress also implementing that law as written and doing it with urgency because we've got to make sure that we get the economic benefits. and the climate benefits of this bill as quickly as possible to ask you quickly moving into the summer. lots of people travel, which travelers expect this summer secretary. well the biggest thing i want travelers to know is that you've got a lot of rights and you've got a lot of protections, consult the airline customer dashboard that we have put up on our department of transportation website lets you know what you were owed in a situation where an airline is responsible for
4:29 am
cancelation or delay had his information on things like which airlines will guarantee that you can sit with your kids without having to pay extra and other very useful information. you know, it's been very encouraging economically, too. to see the extraordinarily fast return to the skies and return to travels . when just two years ago. the big question around the aviation sector in the u. s was whether it was going to go out of business. but with that comes a lot of strain on the system, and that's part of what i'm doing out here right now. visiting four airports over two days meeting with air traffic controllers looking at the results of some of the runway and taxiway and other improvements that we're making and the investments that president biden's infrastructure packages delivering across the country, including things that passengers will never see. but as a passenger, i want you to know that these improvements are designed for you not to have to worry about him when we change the taxiway so that it's safer or upgrading air traffic controller, but the reason it does matter to you is it's part of making sure that your trip is
4:30 am
safe as we keep an eye on the breaking news coming out of minnesota, as you know this sitting the site from ohio, right? ah was subject of consternation. do you plan to visit minnesota? right now. i am not going to get in the way of investigators or local officials . i did visit ohio as far as we know, it's the first time that a transportation secretary has visited a hazardous material derailment site because it was very important for the community to hear the message of support from this administration. but i went the day that the ntsb released its preliminary fact finding report right now what the community needs is support from first responders will help any way we can. i've been in touch with the governor already this morning, and while our department doesn't have a direct first responder role, we do have personnel on the ground, making sure that we can provide support. transportation secretary pete buddha judge. thank you. thank you. we are
4:31 am
continuing to follow the breaking news coming out of moscow, an american reporter from the wall street journal detained in russia being accused of espionage, something the journal vehemently denies. the very latest on that this morning for president trump is appealing to keep his top aides from testifying in the january 6th investigation. that's just one investigation into the ex president. we have new polling this morning on how americans feel about all the potential criminal charges against trump. future is here. we've been creating it for more than 100 years. putting the most advanced technology into people's hands. generation after generation. tool after tool. again. and again, bringing you the broadest and most reliable network of service dealers always moving forward. others follow. need to

4:34 am
4:35 am
good, you feel good. number one most loved thinking up evan perez in washington, and this is cnn. this morning. we are following several major breaking stories here at cnn. russia has arrested an american journalist and accused him of espionage. he is the first u. s reporter to be accused of spying by russia since 1986 the wall street journal says they vehemently deny the allegations that are being made and they're calling for his immediate release here at home to u. s. army helicopters have crashed during a training exercise overnight. the military is reporting there are several casualties were expecting to learn a lot more to news conference that we're expecting just hours from now. also in minnesota, evacuations are underway at this moment
4:36 am
after a train that was carrying ethanol and corn syrup derailed overnight catching fire officials say. there were no injuries so far, but we will bring you the latest developments as we get them while those evacuations are underway, as we do that new this morning, the former president donald trump is appealing a court ruling that would force several of his former aides, including mark meadows to testify. before a grand jury as part of a criminal investigation into efforts overturned the election. and new polls show how americans feel about potential criminal charges against former president trump. a new quinnipiac poll shows that 57% of americans think criminal charges should disqualify him from running in 2024, but look at the party breakdown here. only 23% of republicans feel that way. 75% don't think charges should disqualify him. so joining us from d c to discuss this. and more is reporter share. shelby talcott covers the trump and republicans for semaphore. shelby. good morning. thank you for joining us. what is this poll say about
4:37 am
donald trump's standing in the party among voters. so it's interesting because, as you noted, i think the really important thing about that poll is the breakdown between republicans and democrats. so overall, the majority of americans want to see him if he is charged, believe that he should not be able to run for president. but the breakdown with republicans show that most republicans i don't feel it should be disqualifying and so whether or not that ultimately affects him in a primary. i think that kind of answers that question. it seems like they won't. they don't believe that. i mean, he said he won't drop out even if he is indicted. shelby and i'm so glad we have you here because obviously we look at polling. we're looking at polling among these candidates trump desantis others that we are expecting to run in 2024. you have some really interesting new reporting on desantis and how he essentially conducts daily business when it comes to emailing in texting, essentially in the fact that he doesn't do it. yeah he does not
4:38 am
text or email in his official capacity at all. and it's really interesting as you said, because he's you know potential 2024 candidates and the reason that desantis his team gave me when i asked about it was he just prefers having in person conversations because the topics are more nuanced, and it's difficult to out in a text message or email exchange. and while that's certainly part of it, the other part of it, according to sources i spoke with is because because of florida's really broad sunshine laws. they have some of the broadest laws in the in the country when it comes to public records, and we've seen former governors in florida kind of grapple with this as well and desantis is certainly taking it to a level that former florida governors have not. the new york times is reporting shelby that desantis team thinks that trump's record on crime could be an opening for them to paint
4:39 am
trump as weak on crime, and they cited the 2018 criminal justice law that trump signed. how effective of a strategy you think that might be. i think it'll i think it'll be tough, to be honest, because trump has always, um, been it's a tough on crime president in terms of his rhetoric. i think it's also interesting. i believe that desantis had voted for that bill . i think this came about after the rand paul rand paul staffer was attacked in washington d. c the other day, and so it does set up an interesting argument. it's essentially going to be who can get more to the right on the issue of crime. all right, shelby talcott. thank you so much. appreciate you joining us. tell you tonight on cnn primetime. former vice president mike pence is going to talk to cnn's wolf blitzer as speculation swirls around his political future, and he's being ordered to testify about conversations he had with the former president. hear what he has to say tonight nine pm

eastern, also this morning, artificial intelligence systems can pose a risk to society and humanity. that is what elon musk and other leaders in the technology industry are warning . this isn't a new open letter to artificial intelligence labs. this morning. we're musk and these other leaders are basically asking a i companies to pause development. of the most advanced systems warning that a i tools present quote, profound risk to society and humanity. joining us now for more on this fascinating letter is cnn media analyst and axios media reporter sarah fisher. so sarah essentially, they're not saying don't do this at all. but they're saying there needs to be a pause, essentially until they can get a grasp on it a better handle on it. but i think the obvious question in response to that is, isn't it way too late for that? it's definitely too late for that katelyn polantz. number one is that it's not necessarily good for innovation here in the us, we're competing
4:41 am
with china and other countries to be ahead in tech, and so pausing puts us behind to technologically it's going to be pretty different. this is like trying to put the toothpaste back into the tube. so many of the products that we use every single day, including products that make our world safer already include a i so pausing on the technology is going to be pretty pretty hard, and i think the third and final thing is that it would require a lot of sort of inner government and technology coordination that we just don't have. yet regulators can barely grasp the concept of a i let alone pass any sort of bills that would force anyone and compel them to pause. so it's unlikely at this point that we are going to take a pause. but what the letter does show is that there is an understanding amongst the tech community that ai poses risks. if we don't move carefully when we're creating these algorithms, making sure that we're accounting for things like bias, so let me read some more of a letter that should we automate away all the jobs, including the fulfilling one. should we develop nonhuman minds? that might eventually
4:42 am
outnumber, outsmart obsolete and replace us. it's really scary should we risk loss of control of our civilization? i mean, it reminds me, you know of a movie where how the computer you know is a i right back from the late sixties and takes over and says, you know, basically, i'm going to do what i want and not follow the instructions of humans. yeah, but the problem with that argument done and this is what technologists were telling us yesterday is that it's way way way too far off. you know, this is like saying that the sky is falling. it's really not following. we're still in a very , very early stage of implementing ai at that level into society and one of the things that the letter calls out, it says we shouldn't be building a i that's more sophisticated than chat gpt four, which is the new ai program that open ai debuted two weeks ago. i mean, et four, is innovative. it's amazing it can help. generate text from images , but we're nowhere near it, replacing all human jobs. and so i think a lot of folks thought
4:43 am
that that line in particular was a little alarmist, and also the idea that congress is going to address this, and they are just still struggling to get their hands around things like tiktok and whatnot. reading my mind. are they going to do this, right? yeah sarah fisher. we know you'll stay on top of it. thank you. thanks, sarah. thank you. also this morning has america's tipping culture gone overboard, or is it just keeping up with the times? we actually want to hear from you on this tweet us here at cnn this morning. we're actually going to read your responses live on air chronic over tipper here. they're nice. the end of the age. i'm afraid i feel is right upon us. this is considered a mass suicicide investigation. their minds. t endo were the second comings. killing themselves, they ensure immortality. i still love easter, baby. cnn presents a max

4:48 am
medical correspondent, of course , is dr sanjay gupta. he joins us. good morning, sanjay. what kind of impact of this decision had well, you know, down since we've been reporting on this over the last two decades, more than a million people have died of drug overdoses. in the majority of those are have been opioids. i mean, people have been hearing these numbers for some time. and the numbers have been getting worse. i mean, you know, in 2020, you had some 69,000 people who died of opioid overdoses. specifically the numbers we've gone up since since then. um so you know, i mean, any strategy that could potentially be helpful is what people have been looking for in narcan is essentially an antidote to an opioid overdose. it can block opioids from actually killing you right now, as things stand done, you can get narcan in any pharmacy in the country. there's these access laws that allow you to get that without a prescription . what this is going to do, and this will be by end of summer. is allow the narcan to be purchased over the counter. so
4:49 am
in the same place you buy your tylenol or allergy medications, things like that. you could get it there, so would it make it more likely for people to buy the narcan put it in their medicine cabinet. have it ready to go? should you know some terrible overdose happen? that's the question and you know the idea that that could have an impact. i think it's pretty strong. yeah but you have to know how to use it. sanjay can you walk us through how that works? yeah it's yes. absolutely first of all, you you you have to recognize when someone is in the throes of an overdose. you want to give this right at the beginning of an overdose? this is a nasal spray. so you're just going to put it in their nostrils. you're going to squirt the plunger, but recognizing that someone's in an overdose is pretty important, so things like small, constricted pupils. that's what opioids do other drugs like stimulants. alcohol cocaine, masculine things like that ecstasy. that will cause your pupils to be dilated so small, constricted pupils. that's a good sign. that's an opioid overdose. obviously someone who's falling asleep
4:50 am
who's a key? can't wake them up that they don't they're not conscious, the type of breathing maybe different all of those types of signs that will give you an indication someone's an overdose. then basically it put that plunger in. they don't even have to be, you know, fully inhaling. and you just squirt that in there, and it can work very quickly. still want to call 911. you still want to get emergency personnel involved, but that that that is a that is an opioid overdose rescue scenario that i've just described and it can be done pretty quickly. just, you know, frankly, by anybody yeah, and that's something we've seen emergency workers use and people have in different places, sanjay when it comes to drug overdoses , what are other strategies and things that people will do when it comes to death? if they don't actually have narcan or something available to them? well you know, one of one of the big things that we're seeing. i visited this d a lab recently katelyn polantz. all these different strategies, even in the field, so someone who is a
4:51 am
drug user, and this is harm reduction, meaning that it's an acknowledgement that these drugs are being used. let's reduce the harm as much as possible. they are starting to advocate for test strips, for example. 99% of the illicit drugs that are currently being seized. have fentanyl in them. it's remarkable. i mean, something we barely talked about a few years ago, and now all the illicit drugs have mental in them. if you're not, and that could be in your adderall. it could be in your anti anxiety medications, places where you would not expect it at all. they could be tainted with fentanyl, so one of the strategies is to allow people to start testing for this test strips, making them available in the field. so you could test your drug ahead of time for fentanyl and also for other things like zilla seen a animal, a sedative drug that is being used and now to taint a lot of these drugs, so that's another strategy as well. katelyn polantz on that you're saying it can be found in
4:52 am
people's adderall and other drugs that people use. these are prescription drugs are getting from is there a pharmacy or how is that? how how does that happen? how does that work? no, no. i want to be clear on that illicit drugs, so people who are buying those types of drugs on the street. i don't want to frighten people. i think if you're getting your drugs from a bricks and mortar pharmacy that drug supply has generally been been safe. and luckily, thankfully, it's the illicit drugs and there are lots of illicit pills out there. sanjay we're up against the clock. and you know how this works, but just quickly. what if your what if i'm wrong? what if someone is i think they're overdosing and i give them narcan in and they're not overdosing. is there a danger there? it's a good question. great question note. there's no answer that simply there's not a problem with giving it. if you're in doubt, you should give the narcan thank you. was learned so much. thank you so much, sanjay. alright it is mlb's opening day. today the league is rolling out big changes before teams actually start playing ball. andy scholes is live with what to expect and what those changes look like.

4:58 am
their wind up before the clock hit zero or the batter gets a ball. hitters meanwhile, i have to get in the box and be looking at the picture ready to go by eight seconds or they get a strike. there will be some freaky scenarios where games will be won and lost because of it, and it will upset some people. the batting glove fixing and stuff like that, and guys walking around the mound three times before they pitch, so yeah, i'm in favor of it have been making sure that i'm on time. and i think if anything, i have a little more time than i thought. i've kind of changed my whole routine. i used to step out of the box and like, look for a sign or something like that, but now i'm in the box the whole time. major league baseball says they tested the clock and more than 8000 minor league games. and so far spring training games have lasted an average of 25 minutes less than last year. what are you going to do with your extra 25 minutes? you get every night now. i don't know. i don't even get to hang out with my own son. it's going to be nice. get home quicker, so i get to spend some time with my family. what else is new? the
4:59 am
bases are all three inches bigger, which will give defenders more space and should lead to more stolen bases. have you noticed any difference from the basis being bigger? because we see a lot of bang bang plays at first base. who's got the advantage. now, i think time you started up the distance in between bases. it's going to go to the runner actually practice picking it up so i can take it with me. in case i have to get thrown out, so that's pretty big. yeah and gone is the shift no longer will a shortstop or third baseman be able to play in right field against left handed batters. they now have to stay left of second base is going to cause teams to be more athletic . you don't be able to put just anybody here. anybody there and depend on the shift to make up for whatever deficiencies that they may have talked to say. so far, they're happy with what they've seen. baseball is an investment of time. i like the way it was. and i like the way it's going to be young kids aren't fans of baseball anymore, so i get it. it will make more fans come because before the
5:00 am
game used to take too long, and people might have left early, either because of the heat, or just got boring kids being able to watch a whole nine innings now that's one way to bring the younger generation into the game . make sure more kids are going to the ballpark. there's a bunch of ways that we can make a difference and making a lot of kids love baseball and grow up wanting to be big leaguers. and the pitch clock and the new rules are arguably the biggest changes we've ever seen in baseball history and major league baseball. they surveyed the fans. donny katelyn polantz , you know what you didn't like the most people said. you know the games last too long, and sometimes it's not a lot of action on the field. they get pretty boring these new rules they fixed both of those problems in a big way. and as someone who has three sons who you know, loves watching the games and going to baseball games with them, a game that lasts about 2.5 hours. that sounds pretty awesome. i don't know as long as there's still time to get a hot dog and a beer. you just read my mind. i was saying yes, i was just gonna say that the best thing about a
