now, as it was not pursuing the bomb, that's upon his lead by the same person, a key part of the plan was to form new organizations to continue the work. this is how dr. wilson 5 is a different kind of project about put it. remember that name for his of the iran now says it believes israel is responsible for the killing of the nuclear scientist . it's not known. each ing his death has damaged its defenses and is vowing revenge . and for insight on this, i'm joined by get a steinberg, an expert on the middle east, and the german institute of international and security affairs. welcome to the program. you know, iran is blaming israel here and as we saw factors that it has clearly been on israel's radar for some time. but what do you think prompted the killing now? well, i think it's, it's no. 'd surprise that the israelis would want the head of the iranian nuclear program to have already assassinated nuclear scientists between

201-2012 in the last phase of escalation between iran and israel. but i think the major reason right now is that they still have the support of the trump administration politically, but perhaps also operationally and they want to make it the israelis want to make it as hard as possible for president elect biden. to start negotiations with the iranians next year, and it ran has a valid to retaliate. what kind of form could that take? or the iranians have retaliated in the past in 2012. i believe that the israeli attacks stopped when iranians and their allies, mainly lebanese hezbollah attacked civilian israeli targets, so that the israeli government decided that the price was too high for israeli

civilians to pay for these s.s. innovations. and i believe something similar might follow. the revolutionary guards might also want to attack american american or israeli targets. but in most cases, at least at western countries, they are too weak to target hardened. well protected targets. you were saying just earlier that one of the targets was the scientists of course, but also the policy of president elect joe biden, as i think the united states plans to have to reenter the iran nuclear. how does this make things more complicated? well, the iranian side will have to prove internally, especially to the powerful revolutionary guards that they are not giving in to the pressure campaign by the tribe ministration. it will make it extremely hard,

took this pressure campaign, and this event will make it extremely hard to convince the iranian leadership that it's worthwhile to negotiate with the united states. especially because major parts of the iranian elite believe anyhow, that the united states israel and the west in general, do not want them to have a peaceful nuclear program. ok, no steinberg from the german institute of international and security affairs. thanks so much time now to have a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. a suicide bombing at an ice cream shop in somalia's capital has killed at least 7 people. officials say the extremist group, al-shabaab has claimed responsibility for the attack. it came just hours after the acting u.s. defense secretary christopher miller visited the city. authorities in germany have

taken action after the uncovered a group of $26.00 soldiers suspected of organizing a chat room containing anti semitic far right and pornographic material. that's according to the defense ministry documents seen by reuters. 3 of the soldiers have been banned from further military employment, says the news agency. french president emanuel call has described the beating of a black man by police officers as an unacceptable attack that shamed his country. music producer was trying to enter his paris studio when 4 police agents started punching him. the incident was caught on camera and it took place during a nationwide debate about a new bill, which restricts the filming of police while on duty. it's a disturbing video. 3 french police officers beating up a black man for 5 minutes. and he's music studio. what the police

officers don't know michel's, the klan has a security camera in the lobby. the highest seen is caught on film. it is sad to say it, but my client was lucky to have a video to report these acts which may be isolated, but still have my client who have been detained when it's his word against the officers. we know very well that it's the words of the officers that carry more weight the pattern that initially played out in the case of michelle's a claire, he was arrested and detained for 48 hours until the security footage showed up. the 3 police officers only left the building after musicians from the studio in the basement, heard the noise, and rushed to help. but even then, it wasn't over. another officer through tear gas into the lobby, forcings that claire to go outside, needed

a hospital treatment for his wounds. but the physical violence was only part of the assault and woodruff heatedly and look to many eyes and punched me. this comes as demonstrators in france protest a proposal to limit the filming of police on duty. the legislation is designed to protect police officers from being harassed or attacked when off duty. critics of the bill argue that it will make it harder to hold officers accountable. if they use excessive force, especially if they deny it, it's clearly officers in this case a lot about the incident in their report that claimed a music producer at tempted to grab their weapons and that he resisted. the interior minister addressed the issue on french television. i have asked the police officers to be suspended as soon as we have all the facts dismissal. they've put a stain on the uniform of the republic. michel's, a clare filed charges against the police officers. now the district attorney's

investigating the officers for use of force on duty and false testimony from the paris french president. we heard describe the incident as an unacceptable attack and asked the french government to come up with proposals to fight against discrimination. what could that mean? well, he's talking about, you know, released devilish ing the link between the population and the government. he talks in his facebook post of, you know, the yes that he would protect the police against attacks, but also that the population needed to be protected. apparently the government is now working on a possible improvements of that security law that was mentioned in the report which would limit the broadcasting of images of the police. we don't know yet what it exactly means, how the government wants to protect people against discrimination against racism.

but what's clear is that the latest laws that are being put on the table, not only the security alone, but also another one, called the law on republican values that is supposed to crack down on radical islam isn't have a lot of parts that well, you know, we have a crackdown part, but actually not doing nothing to protect people against discrimination. many people are, you know, there are criticizing that at the moment. as you know, full well, there's been other cases of police violence against blacks in france, which have been decried and spurred demonstrations. but this one really seems special. it seems to be coming at a particular time where debate can be influenced as i write absolutely, because, well, 1st of all, because millions of people about 13000000 people have looked at that video, have seen that video. and that really there is a lot of outrage about that,

especially also because the police lied in their power point about what happened. and it seems quite evident that there is no, well, at least there is no apparent reason for them. beating him for minutes and minutes on end, not only inside the studio, but also outs out in the street when there are many police surrounding him and you just concretely figure out, why would they keep on beating him? so this really shocks a lot as this shocking lot of people and they are asking for more protection for people. and as you said, it comes in a certain context why the government is discussing about that new law that would protect the police, but not the population. ok did abuse reporting from paris, where there will be a demonstration in this afternoon on this very subject. we turn now to sports and some football much to 9 in. the bundesliga kicked off on friday night with inform wolfsburg hosting verda brennan, wolves went into the match unbeaten this season and raymond gave their all to break their opponents hot streak. let's take a look at what turned out to be an 8 goal thriller. a minute's silence for the

great amount of the into a moment of reflection. before the goal start rolling in after just 13 minutes u.s. soccer fans, they are not obese. and could he smashed the ball home for brain and put the visitors in? he didn't last long equalize for votes for a quick fix shot just 3 minutes later, usa international, john anthony brooks, put the wolves in front frame and kept up the pressure. substitute kevin move with this incredible header made it to wall after 36 minutes more excitement when just one minute later evolves per took back. their lead going into halftime dutchman failed to bet horst taking the honors after the break. and after an own goal from fallsburg, john anthony brooks,

which had leveled the score. the home side were back in front of course to get from the room. but that wasn't the end of it, like made it $53.00 in extra time of the fallsburg united stand, their unbeaten run to 9 matches. osa athletes over the age of 50 would dare return to their professional sport, especially if it was boxing. but that hasn't stopped. mike tyson from taking on roy joins jones jr. tonight in los angeles, tyson, who is known for his knockout power became heavyweight champion when he was only 20 years old in 1986. but he hasn't fought since 2005. now, the 54 year old says he's ready to rumble. jonas is 3 years younger. he was once regarded as the most talented boxer on the planet, but hung up his gloves 2 years ago. tyson is the favorite to win this out between 2

boxing greats. so and you are of course, watching g.w. news live from berlin up next our tech show shift looks at why speech recognition doesn't recognize every points of speech today at the top of the hour. for more news from michael, local and express. or thanks for watching house and drama, competition, rivalry, marketing numbers, atmosphere color, by at time. intuition, love, hate money, fans, prime time stamps, and fans all book on you tube. joining us the fight against the corona virus pandemic has the rate of infection been developing.

measures are being taken. what does the latest research say? information and context? the coronavirus and the code of special monday to friday on t.w. . well speech be the new intersection between humans and technology. even twitter is setting its hopes on audio messaging. now, even twitter is setting its hopes on audio messaging. now, how well this recognition work and what else does our voice reveal about us? voice, command, and voice analysis. our topic today on shit and asking the fridge for recipes, talking to your g.p.s. or turning off the lights with your voice. turn off the lights. digital assistants

using voice command are infiltrating our day to day lives, but why always so keen on them kernis is a fan and his berlin based start ups. your overall has developed an open source platform that anyone can use to program voice apps which work on all devices. that's a huge part of us and that's what i find fascinating about voice is how natural this type of interaction is from. she comes in by even a 3 year old child can ask for a specific song, although we can't really help you on that. we cannot seem to tell, you know, and then there's the older generation who never quite felt understood by technology to all of a sudden they see more free interacting with tech. and this had never quite worked before. this example shows just how much it's already possible. the 2 people don't speak the same language, but they can still communicate thanks to smart speech software. just i was going to do that by the door, so i'm dizzy. you got a point. i'm looking for

a place to have lunch before going to the airport. there's a great place around the corner. you can take the chain from there to the airport. i, you know better that wait, that belies what is the might it then is the i, yes, they laid up way to go. but it's not as easy as the advertisement might have you believe. i know this from my own family. my father speaks german with an accent, and the speech recognition technology of the remote control often struggles to understand his commands. this has to do with who developed the algorithms and crucially with who didn't pashto and yelling speech impediment dialects, different cultural backgrounds. there are many people who don't sound like the average silicon valley coder developed by the whole communicating and there are often comprehension problems. investigators tired eyes out also just from differences between genders, holland, soft women are frequently understood less well than men. for example,

much. these differences are largely due to the data used to train voice algorithms . the typical software developer is a white man who speaks english. in the beginning, developers use their own voices to train the voice assistance, a circumstance which still has consequences to this day. no voice assistant, whether produced by amazon, google, apple, i.b.m. or microsoft will understand every word, but the error rates fall notable patterns. study by stanford university, for example, found a 35 percent error rate for african-americans, as opposed to 19 percent for white americans, even though english is the standard language for voice systems. many languages can't be used at all. it's just 8 work across platforms for amazon, google and apple. the google smartphone assistant is the most diverse. it speaks 44 languages. but generally the rule for all devices is minorities are not certain time or treatment. if you land and in many countries,

all there's no speech software gets off because the demand just isn't worth investing in at the moment i'm here. so speech recognition systems don't work the same for everyone. plus, let's not forget that there are people with speech impediments and people who cannot speak or hear. a german research project has developed the 1st tool that enables speech software to recognise language. research is also focusing on going beyond the strict sense of for its meanings. after all, it's not just what someone says, but also how they say it that plays a big role in comprehension. this is especially intriguing for companies, as they hope to find out more about their customers. i'm in a great time today. i know it takes only a few words to hear what kind of mood a person is, or whether they're happy or angry. ai program can filter out 6000 parameters from someone's voice, including pitch and tambor. developers from the start up, my dear and munich,

are hoping that their smart voice analysis will enable them to sneak a peek into people's hearts. the software has already been tested in call centers where it's been used something coming calls to analyze the callers as well as the staff members. and it's this new school assistance for control of this consumer using the software. i felt as if i were automatically looking at things from the outside modest when i was, and i thought about the customer a lot more happy customers are loyal customers and companies want to keep it that way. but they're also critical voices in increasing creating voice space profiles as problematic points when you get detached, lecture and digital ethics. and of course, can reveal a lot about my mood or my house phone bill was forced to call, and those are very sensitive privacy issues and even they should be on, you know, i'm surrounded companies and at least not so long as i have not given my explicit consent, but that's what companies want to find out as much as possible about their

customers from their voices. since 2018. amazon has a patent on effort ties meant for people with illnesses or conditions. in other words, alexa is supposed to tell from a person's voice whether they're ill, or even depressive, and then recommend products accordingly. but how is it that this technology can work to speak? we need our entire body, that longs the trachea and the larrys with its vocal cords. in total more than 100 muscles, a part of creating sound and sever parts of the brain too. and that's the reason why our voice can reveal important information about illnesses like parkinson's compared to a healthy person's voice of god. someone with parkinson's voice was so choppy beyond showed up as a computer scientist and he just team are working on detecting parkinson's disease . and it's very early stage. no, you can are concerned as

a neurodegenerative disorders that which specifically attacks the motor functions of the ghost. or since it can be detected some very early on in my muscles i was which we have here, you generate sounds of voices and also in the future. it may also be possible to detect other conditions like autism, depression, or currently called 19 through voice analysis. incredible, what's become possible with artificial intelligence and digital voice analysis. but it's worth bearing in mind that this technology also comes with wrists back in 2017 . the canadian startup lie a bird, cause a stir with manipulated voices of politicians like donald trump and barack obama. i am not a robot. my generation is always different. i'm not a robot. my information is always different. well, that doesn't really sound that real, is that why a bird has since then been bought, and now it's part of a software for transcribing and creating pod casts. the integrated ai makes it

possible to edit the voice recordings. after you have finished recording like this for example, i should probably get in shape this year. i've changed quickly. i should probably watch t.w. ship this year. that sounds pretty good already, but it only works on line and so far, only in english, but the technology is developing rapidly. take the example of this french company, which is already working on manipulating voices in real time. french software company, candy voice has specialized in cloning voices, home, or love? well off you'll do our technology can synthesize a boys with just 80 words and then let that person's voice say whatever it wants to play. in order to demonstrate the way the software works, the voice experts need samples, gardens, football team achieve the expected results. 500 sentences contain all the typical

sounds german defense to news clips and in the early afternoon hours in southeast china. an algorithm disassembles the recordings into small fragments. the meaning of the words is completely irrelevant here. what the program is after is the sound of the individual fragments so that it has numerous sound bytes for both speakers. now the algorithm can start comparing the fragments, thereby also comparing the tambour of both voices. the more words are given to the algorithm, the better it can train on its own. once training is complete, the software should be able to convert every sentence spoken by the male voice into the female voice and vice versa. but how well does the software work? can voice is being manipulated live. and i'm gonna, i'm 29 years old and i'm from germany. i'm speaking in max's voice, and it sounds very real this conference mish, not that i was pretty close to what i ordered or sounds like mckenna and the other

way around. i'm max, but i'm speaking an area known as voice right now. that's pretty convincing. but also quite a weird feeling. well, pretty impressive, but it doesn't sound good enough to really be able to deceive you. scientists are working on using the human voice as a type of password. the idea behind that is that register customers would be immediately recognized by their voice when they call a growing number of companies, including european banks, what to replace identity verification for security questions, fingerprints and pins with voice authentication. as upon who put institute in dobbs dot in southwest germany, project head on q. is testing such a voice id system minded. my voice is my password to a company. for instance, a bank has his voice samples just as they would for

a customer. the company software created a biometric profile from his voice sample with more than 100, identifying characteristics such as pitch or rhythm winched and when logging in to be a voice, the program compares the voice speaking with the stored profile. if they match, the customer's granted access. but what if somebody uses a digitally manipulated voice? the liar birds, or similar programs have not yet reached a level of protection to be able to accurately recreate the hokum melody and all the characteristics of a human being's voice. but not all experts are convinced voice verification systems are safe to air her and me i see voice is an interesting addition. it's just, it's not just concepts, it's interest. now i wouldn't use my voice for banking and so on and survive, but it actually gets to me, the technology is only just getting started on the home. so at their wrist. well,

doubts that despite these the tech giants, he voice, command and analysis as the next major intersection between humans and machines. and the technology has already made it into our homes. researchers expect that before long our whole apartment or house will be equipped with microphones and speakers so that smart speakers might even become redundant. i have to say that i have some concerns about this. to mean my apartment is generally a really private place, and i don't want to feel like someone or something is listening to me when i'm at home. but what do you think about this? what do you use voice commands for? let us know on you tube or facebook. i buy and see you soon.

cause not densely. believe me, it's been a sexy answer to my cynical look on stage in the sense of response to the same old cast on with our new berlin on the morning. tricky thing to come to france against cuts to my coming to become president

and the challenges in gaza. credible story mob starts december 10th on g.w. . berlin, incurring a virus times the city's currently under a lockdown liked you hardly ever see berlin so empty. we had actually planned to.
