he was so fascinated by their culture that he stayed. only approaches to his son made sarno leave the jungle and return to the concrete and glass jungle but. the result reverse culture. the prize winning documentary song from the forest starts first w. . what's took so long that's one question that many are asking off the american regulators finally ground the boeing seven three seven maps and here's another one is it really clever to let computers fly at planes for the pilots becoming glorified passengers we have a leading expert in the field. and. also coming up ahead of local elections people

in turkey ok andrea as the country slips into recession average citizens are feeling the pinch. this is your business i'm in and welcome investigated to say a piece of wreckage from the crash if you plan shows a similar setting to the one on the lyon am plane that came down last year the fragment from the tail stabilizer could reveal whether the jet's nose was being direct directed downwards a photo also shows the plane's flight data recorder is damaged but intact the image has been released by the poetry in france where the jet's two so-called black boxes are being analyzed it's hoped they will reveal the course of the tragedy which killed one hundred fifty seven people the second crash involving a boeing seven hundred seven knocks within months that the whole fleet to be grounded worldwide. meanwhile bow. continues to build the reserve

max but stopped deliveries until further notice the order books are full some one hundred clients have put in orders for nearly five thousand planes the company itself supports a global grounding of the seven three seven mark fleet until investigations have concluded but critics say what took you so long also the f.a.a. is now under fire for taking too much time to ground the planes in the u.s. . what is it about these and craft what caused the boeing max crashes in ethiopia and indonesia and why did the u.s. aviation authority the f.a.a. wait so long to implement its ban after almost all of the aviation authorities had introduced that as. i think that the f.a.a. was too slow by about twenty four hours and the aviation authorities were quick count but then the f.a.a. is answerable to the white house which in turn has been in close contact with boeing it's time for an explanation the president i have talked about that very
7:33 am
thing and i will tell you this planes are far more complex he's right about that but i think most aviation experts would tell you that since we have automated aircraft since the dawn of automation safety has improved dramatically and while they are more complex they are definitely safer tens of thousands of jobs are now at risk so is the f.a.a. perhaps too close to the big u.s. plane maker boeing has taken a real hit in the public relations image. to be fair to boeing there are just certain things that it cannot say during an active aircraft investigation but when it comes out says we believe the airplane are safe they need to tell you why they believe the airplane the safe and they did convey that message just say they're playing a safe without so to speak showing their math behind. a quick look at the depicts shows just how important the maxi reste short and middle distance craft off
7:34 am
a boeing seventy eight percent of the companies as a for these very models. so they're quite clear you have brought down this plane but could it have been automated flight assistance just i'm with me in the studio now as he's a professor for innovation and futures that holds international business school and dealing with ai and these automated systems all of our computers will be more reliable than humans all they're beginning to kill us know these systems have gotten over the past ten twenty years have gotten over safer and have made our devices our transportation means such as buses cars and their plan safer not less safe is a plus for that. there is proof of that we have had fewer accidents in europe in particular in cars for instance we have seen fewer accidents until the human factor said it was more texting in cars so it's the interplay between the technology and the human that's really the tricky part is basing so discipline is lacking that's
7:35 am
right there but then why is it that instinctively people seem to mistrust artificial intelligence and computer is that helping planes to fly cost to drive why where does that come from who clearly technology's getting smarter more intelligent and that's a scary thing for us because we don't necessarily understand how it's happening the human brain always transposes its own functioning into other things and if these other things aren't quite understandable then we get scared so i think that's really the root cause for much of the concern you know we need more explain ability and transparency and how these systems work to gain trust in humans do we need as humans do we need to sort of learn to trust computers more i mean i think that's a difficult task isn't it well i think we definitely need to make sure that that trust does get enhanced by having cars drive more miles autonomously and showcasing how safe they are trust doesn't happen from nothing we need to demonstrate that and so yeah that can be done and i think the automobile companies the internet companies are working on exactly that because these technologies are so complex
7:36 am
they have to mature first through a lot of miles being driven on the road for instance and that has to happen first before people trust to get into these cars but that level of maturity and the trust in a mature technology how far away are we from that when will i be able to sort of lean back and close my eyes and just let the future drop. i think that full level five autonomy where the car literally drives ninety nine point nine percent by itself is years away probably something like seven eight nine ten years away at the very least where we know we are now is sort of between three and four were cars can drive maybe so. eighty percent of the time likely limited to highways or surface roads they're fairly linear fairly straight but as soon as you get into inner cities where things become very complex with a lot of erratic human behavior trees falling things like that whether added into
7:37 am
the mix it's really difficult for cars to fully go out honestly can you imagine a future for us without letting ai and automated systems rule at least parts of our lives and what would we need to be careful about that now i think that train has left the station i don't think we can halt this development and frankly a i can lead to a much better future with not just economic growth but also human and societal growth so it's a desirable thing to do but we need to govern it we need to get in front of this thing to a lot of system testing not just within technical systems but within society and particularly with that human machine interaction we call that socio technical systems that's where a lot of these farts happen when of course thank you very much thank you. no there is one reliable bellwether for the political climate in any country if taxi driver start to get angry at the government by the capitol just two weeks before the turkish local elections the country is sliding into recession and i'll

make i'll put shrank by three percent in the fourth quarter last year increasingly the fallout of president ever wants isolationist policies is being felt by the average citizen. taxi drivers in istanbul almost happy. the view over the boss paris is beautiful but rush hour traffic in the city of fifteen million can be torturous especially for taxi drivers who are constantly stuck in traffic jams at this point they're pleased if they don't have to argue with passengers about the price. isn't knows that there are some black sheep among the istanbul taxi drivers who collect excessive prices and he gets to feel it driving a taxi is not much fun anymore. in the past people mainly talked about soccer on weekends and at the beginning of the week especially on the days when league matches took place we used to talk to our passengers about the performance of the teams or mistakes of the referees but for
7:39 am
the past year everyone who gets into the taxi has been complaining about the economy their financial worries about the government and stock prices. above all the inflation rate of just under twenty percent is depressing the mood the high gasoline prices are hitting taxi drivers twice as hard. if it's not absolutely necessary people avoid the taxi they tend to use public transport instead that's bad for us. these days many turks use their money mostly for food prices have risen by up to sixty percent in just one year the government is trying to counter this with subsidized fruit and vegetables. and the weaker growth is also attracting investors attention after the financial crisis they had pumped a lot of money into turkey which they believe to be in good hands in the emerging market if this flow of money now stops there's the threat of
7:40 am
a real recession. and that's why taxi driver isn't wants to vote for the largest opposition party in the local elections at least they should benefit from the poor economic situation. electric car champion tesla has unveiled its long awaited electric sports utility vehicle the company hopes the model by as it's called will win over a bias in the most popular segment as the balls must set the basic model because just under forty thousand dollars and could go nearly four hundred kilometers on a single charge european competitors are expected to release their own electric s.u.v.s in the coming months. bring in paul because brits in frank says coming out with the why expected is that because it's facing strong look strong competition. well the s.u.v.

space is certainly a very hot segment right now and this will put tesla head to head to the current car giant's audi has its each tron coming expected by mid twenty nine thousand and already has a smaller s.u.v. follow up in the making the diameter has these e.q. see also expected by mid this year and it says the car is already sold out for twenty nineteen it can't even deliver all the ones that are are preordered and even the fox bag and tanker has shifted around the companies investing massively and expected to start production of its id cross in two thousand and twenty this will really go to show how serious of a car maker tesla is now for some anecdotal evidence on that there's the unconventional naming convention in the tesla sirius which s. than three x. y. how does that make sense well if you put it all on paper and reveals a very special kind of your mother that might work with buyers in california but does it translate internationally. to move facebook executives. leaving up to

plenty of other old time has quit what's going on of facebook briefly if you can. well facebook as the main product does have problems and so there is a strategy change in the making that mark zuckerberg has released it's not a big surprise that also comes with changes in personnel what's interesting is that one of the executives won't be replaced and the other will be answering directly to mark zuckerberg so he's getting ever more power and control centralized on him as a person bob woods thank you very much. that's it for me and the business team stay tuned for culture right after this week's market update the for.
