6:31 pm
out of all the cases are all the rage in russia and how designers on malta include their island's traditions in their work. but 1st, lots of people are crazy about cars and some of them collect or build crazy cars. and our new weekly series going into overdrive. we will be presenting some of these petrolheads and they're met machines. we start off with at china, from britain who's managed something most inventors can only dream off he regularly at guinness world records, and he does it with roadsters that don't really look like cost and all, but believe it or not, all of them all street legal, racing along country roads at 111 kilometers an hour in the world's fastest that
6:32 pm
china from britain set a new world record in 2008. doing this. he specializes in the construction of completely crazy cars. anything is possible. i do like exploring stuff. i'm very curious about how things work and i really, really do love sort of dragging things together. that shouldn't be together. could i make a car that was nothing like a cop and still be street legal? or show you the control. the serial will spot conventional and then you've got your indicator of stuff. you're lying on the whole as well as all on here. so everything is nice and close. easy to get hold of. you've made it into the guinness world records 8 times. i guess nobody else is really doing that. so it's quite nice to be in a strange space, but it's also about pushing the limits and it just seeing how far you can take that
6:33 pm
. and i think, you know, that's really where i guess some of the record started to come in and i would say the full record was just a true gift for record. thanks to me and said, you know, we did, you know that 87 miles out on the sofa is a world record. the soap was steered by a pizza, pan, and braked with its gas. pedal is knee operated, and china earned his 1st world record when he drove the sofa around a track at a motor show and a spectator time. tim, i set the record bosses furniture about 20 years ago at 19 lines, the 8. and it was kind of well set the whole thing in motion. negligible one record a guinness world record isn't enough. you need to have lots of them or start building crazy cars. and going crazy records, like the world's fastest motorized bathroom. it's fixtures and fittings are attached to a motorcycle frame. when it comes to creating new forms of mobility and china likes to break with content and simply let his imagination run wild creations like his
6:34 pm
mobile orange are the result. he's constantly updating it. is a green do. and i actually get it. so it looks like they were going to be rather nice when i had a little bit of sense as well. maybe with a magic jelly bean give me that really nice. going to orange juice and engineering product design. he became famous as a car expert on a british t.v. show, and for over 2 decades he's been constructing his mad machines near london by capt . this is a this is money. most of it's kind of a man ice cream van. this is the old school with a screen about his latest record. pushing the all electric vehicle to a top speed of $100.00 in 1000 kilometers per hour wasn't a problem. but there were a few additional challenges. you know quite
6:35 pm
a few rules of the guinness put down actually for us, and then also for sure, but for the sort of ice cream before and after the event. and that was really the nub of the problem. that's because he had to develop a new technology to allow his face cream machine to run on battery power rather than diesel. he's patented his green ice cream machine, and now it's being employed in conventional ice cream trucks. in the meantime, his record has now been broken, but his electric ice cream van project still gives him the drive to do more. change the world, and make it a better place. i mean, who wants to use all fields? are there i skate right now. i'm in the guinness world, record thing is fun, but there is now there's always been an engineering purpose behind it. and that's part of the challenge. it's just nice to do stuff for fun. but at the same time has a 2nd or 3rd purpose as well. i think really that's really where this is going and you got to do stuff because amuses people. but one has to have a point could provide valuable impetus for new kinds of mobility. the record
6:36 pm
breaking rebel is used to getting things moving even things that normally stay put . legend has it that the gods used to spring from one island to the next to cross the wools seas and oceans and to get from europe to america. they once set foot on the islands of the azores, and they are really set to call them home to this days because the islands are so beautiful and i can totally understand why the azores on a thomas region of portugal. they are located at some 1500 kilometers away from the mainland in the middle of the atlantic ocean. and that is where we sent our report to hendrick welling for our next report. he takes us on a voyage of discovery around these past the navy and very beautiful full county guy
6:37 pm
islands. i meant the building and today i'm going to show you how to spend the perfect day on the azores. it's a paradise that's been shaped by volcanoes. the azores are particles archipelago in the middle of the atlantic. some 1500 kilometers from the mainland. on the main island of sami, give me the best way to experience the islands. natural beauty on food. first, we make our way through what looks like an enchanted forest. a few steps further on,
6:38 pm
we are on the edge of a volcanic crater on the head of us plus the cult there are set to sit down, which means 7 cities in and in cork and enjoy the view of this huge crowd. there are posts to different colors, shimmering lakes. you get a great view of them on many of the islands, dozens of hiking trails. i really like hikes. one are challenging. and here, since there's a lot of mountains on in one single hike, you can do a bit of everything up the hill flats down the hill slippery you can, you can ike across a forest. and a few minutes later you're, you're already outside on a field like this. so i guess our very,
6:39 pm
i would say my opinion, there are very complete. there's a bit of everything because ours also whale and dolphin watches paradise. the various ocean currents around the island make these waters a playground for them. i've joined marine biologist in the shadow on route. she tells me more about the way it's scouts on land that the boats know when away it's been sighted. as they are starting their migration or it's just feeding grounds where it's a lot about self with available and here it is. all right, so we are one of the 1st stops, are the 1st places where they can find a bit selfish because they spend our winter having their babies and almost not feeding at all. so here we are at a nice coffee break. that's what it says. but before we actually get to see any whales, we spot dolphins,
6:40 pm
the 1st one, and then the whole school. but then at the moment arrives it's a huge sperm whale. about 16 metres long. the whale disappears in search of food. and i continue my journey around, saw me get the cow there, our village, our park stretches along the volcano, it's hot springs give off the smell of sulfur. and that's fun.
6:41 pm
the island's volcanic origin can be seen everywhere on some again. but it's especially evident in the village of footage, located inside a volcanic crater. it's famous for its $22.00 hot springs. i test the waters at poynton said idea where hot spring water makes sense with the cool currents of the atlantic. city. part of the bay is the perfect spot to wind down in a natural thought that it was just a fantastic. it was good. but thanks so much over the day and to the right, you know, the day it was just part of leone

6:43 pm
a fair few jerks, and in a world worth living in the central it's sustainability, which is never before such a crucial theme. since we have to have a clear idea about how we plan to out and how we will and the bigger the project and the bigger remove visible. the more attention the project, which i feel is a good thing. the global gate was built in just a few days out of $37.00 c. containers decorated on the outside with brightly colored works by lay on live and taught. the piece was inspired by the world famous brandenburg gate in berlin. the idea to construct this 21 metre high gate in frankfurt was the fruit of a child's imagination. 9 year old song has
6:44 pm
a little shipping container he started stocking with and used to build the brandenburg gate. and it's an interesting coincidence that each pillar of the brand has 13 meters long, just like a 24 foot shipping container, which is also 13 meters, meaning the resemblance is very, very clear. the artist layer livin, taught was commissioned by the united nations 3 years ago to depict its global goals for sustainable development in a creative piece of art for each of the 17 goals he painted a picture meant to illustrate gender equality and climate action. for example, these paintings have already been on display in paris and new york, and the proceeds from their previous sales were used to build a school in senegal. and here's the end result in frankfurt with the artist 17 motifs presented in large scale on the global gate. the walls are adorned with texts on the un objectives in 12 languages. but how does
6:45 pm
the topic of sustainability fit within to draw attention to the topic of sustainability and hopefully promote great sustainability when it comes to flying. is my passion. and as an artist, i've done everything in my power to at least build awareness regarding sustainability. and this issue impacts the entire world, which is why the airport is symbolic. it's being called play on live in talks, photo campaign for my future can be seen throughout the corridor. to complete it, he asked over 200 children how they imagine the future and photograph them. but how does the artist himself imagine the future? i think digitalisation will certainly play a very, very key role in our lives and daily routine with a different image and
6:46 pm
understanding of how true is especially in light of the difficult period we're going through now. is global gate the gateway to a new world. the sculpture will be on display at frankfurt airport until the end of february, before embarking on a journey around the world. but without the containers because they can be found anywhere. and besides, that wouldn't be very sustainable. this is the nicest bouquet i have ever been given, and it is perfect because i was planning to make a bet. it will soup for dinner. but what would you favor of summer? offered you a bunch of vegetables like this. instead of flowers in russia, food bookcase are the latest trend. the capital of moscow is home to several florists studios which make beautiful bookcase from strawberries, nuts,

7:01 pm
but not out. and the sangatte of the mysterious model of the still object to fear, out of nowhere in the middle of the desert bend, banished just suddenly without a trace, but who put it there and why? the advantage prompted a host of conspiracy theories. a reporter will tell you more america evanston, it's good to have you with us. we begin in france where the government is under pressure after police clashed with protesters in paris. demonstrations erupted saturday over a new security bill that would restrict the right to publish images of police officers. the issue came into focus after footage emerged of police beating up and racially abusing a black music producer. opponents say the law would prevent these types of images
7:02 pm
from becoming public and could cover up police misconduct. the police and demonstrators clashed violently in the french capital, marking the end of a day of protest for freedom of expression. the rally was against a proposed security bill restricting the sharing of images of police offices. i was media organizations and human rights groups organized marches across the country with tens of thousands gathering in paris alone. it was. there are already rules which provide for the protection of officials, including police officers when they are on duty, and that's entirely legitimate. the police do a very good job, but that's not what we're talking about here. it's about wanting to limit the ability of citizens, including journalists to report police file,
7:03 pm
and this video galvanized the opposition 3 police officers in paris, beatup, a black man, a music producer. in his own studio, the victim was detained until footage from the security camera was published as paris, but the interior ministry said up to 40 police officers were injured in demonstrations nationwide. the new security bill is already strew the lower house of the french parliament. it's now down to the senate to give it the final nod. and our correspondent lisa lewis joins me now from paris. hello to you elise. tell us what the latest on the investigation into those police officers who assaulted the black music producer. well, the prosecutor held a press conference earlier today,
7:04 pm
and he said that these police officers that were involved in the case for them that, that an investigation would be launched, opened against them. you also said what they had actually said when they were taught at tara gated by the police about that. and that they said that they had panicked when they were in the little room that michelle claire, the music producer, had been defined that he had smelled of drugs of drugs. but the prosecutor also said that with time going on, then as they were interrogated several times, they changed their version. and finally admitted that they had used this proof disproportionately much force to arrest the music producer. now they will be 3 of them. actually the ones that were beating up the music producer insight, the music studio, they will be held in detention before the trial because the prosecutor said that they want to just the prosecutor's office, wanted to prevent them from coordinating with each other. and also from putting
7:05 pm
pressure on possible witnesses that really says a lot about how the prosecutor is seeing what happened here in france a week ago. now he said to talk to us about this proposed security law that has made so many people so angry. it's not just the behavior of these police officers. what's the rationale behind the new legislation? have there been major instances of public abuse of police officers in strand's? is this long necessary? well, there is a general trend towards more violence towards the police, according to figures from the police themselves. they are saying that the police officers on active duty that got injured actually that the number of these incidents doubled within 15 years to reach about 77400 in 2019. there hasn't been any major incident recently,
7:06 pm
but many people obviously agree that police officers here in france need to be protected when they're on duty. however, the big question is, is this law, especially the article 24 that would limit the rights to broadcast images of police officers? is that really, really proportionate? is it justified, or would it actually take away the right from people who want to protect themselves against police of a lot of violence is lisa lewis in paris for us. thank you so much. a new wave of rocket attacks launched from ethiopia's northern region has targeted a smart bomb. the capital of neighboring era tram, there have been reports of multiple explosions in the city. this came just hours after the o.p.'s military declared victory in its military campaign against your eyes ruling party, the people's liberation front admitted previous rocket attacks on eritrea accusing

it of sending troops to support ethiopian forces. ethiopian troops have been closing in on to gries regional capital since forces. they ignored an ultimatum to surrender. on wednesday, they say they've seized control of all key installations, including the airport and to free thousands of troops allegedly, being held hostage by to cry in forces. the ethiopian army says its main aim now is to track down any last holdouts to fully controlling mechelle, a city. our army is hunting and going after and searching for the elements opposed to peace that are hiding in holes and pits are with wood or with all your goods there. but despite the ethiopian army's declaration of victory to go in for says said the conflict is not yet over. they told reuters news agency that they would continue their fight from areas not yet
7:08 pm
under government control. as some analysts believe, they could also be planning to conduct a guerrilla war from the mountains. the fate of civilians is also causing concern. tens of thousands have fled to neighboring sudan are very comfortable being safe said many times already are left behind everything. the relatives there work, most of them are farmers and it is the harvest time and they cannot do it. so a major source of livelihood is lost. another source of anguish for many refugees, is the lack of information about what is happening to their loved ones back home. because the government has cut, internet and phone links to the region, aid agencies are also urging the authorities to open a humanitarian corridor to allow them to help people on the ground. all right,
7:09 pm
let's get a quick check. now some of the other stories making news. this hour the u.n. says more than 100 people have been killed in an attack in northeastern nigeria. men on motorcycles are said to have gunned down civilians in the town of cars, shelby, and other villages in borno state. no one has claimed responsibility, but the militant group boko haram has attacked the area in recent years. protesters in bangkok have gathered outside the headquarters of an army regiment controlled by thailand's king. they demanded democratic reforms to the government and the monarchy and demonstrations have been taking place for much of the year. demands include the resignation of prime minister prior to china, china, the amendment of the constitution and curbs to the monarchies, power temperatures in parts of australia, rose above 40 degrees celsius for a 2nd straight day over the weekend. sydney sweated through the hottest november
7:10 pm
night on record, but temperatures plunged tent agrees. within 20 minutes on sunday. authorities have issued a total ban on all fires because of the extreme heat. now a steel monolith that was recently discovered in the american desert has now disappeared as mysteriously as it appeared. the monolith was 1st found earlier this month by rangers in the utah desert during a wildlife survey. no one knows for certain who created the object or what it was intended for. the series have ranged from an art installation to a prank or even extraterrestrial origin. now the 3 metre, tall object has vanished. state officials have confirmed that the object disappeared at some point late last week. though they say they don't know who or what may have removed it and did every reporter, aaron tilton has been following this story for us. aaron, this is
7:11 pm
a really strange story. yes, it certainly is really, really bizarre. i mean, do we know anything about this thing? i mean, where it came from or where it, when, or what it's made out of. no, actually it's all that we know absolutely nothing. we know. we know it's made of steel. we don't know who made it. we don't know who put it there. we don't know why they put it there. i mean, there's been a lot of theories. i mean, just looking at it, it looks like a prop from 2001, a space odyssey. now it's made of steel or it was made of steel, disappeared at this point. and there are theories that it could be a prank. it could be an homage to the 20012001, the famous movie from stanley kubrick. it could be a use prop from a science fiction movie that we just haven't seen yet, or it could be an art installation. i mean, these are all the theories that are floating around right now, but at this point, all we know is that it was found in november 18th and it disappeared late last week and more. we don't know at this point, but there were several people who tried to,
7:12 pm
to hunt out where, where this thing was located, wasn't i and i read that the authorities didn't want to tell people where it was, but they figured it out anyway. can you tell us a bit about that washerwoman, it's located on federal land and it's out in the desert. and because of you know, some of the dangers of traveling to the desert, they didn't want to let people wear it, no know where it would be because that encouraged incurred some people to go out there that could get lost and does are dangerous things could happen right now, a lot of people are trying to focus on what it actually could have been, and most people seem to think it was most likely an art installation. there are a whole series of sculptures in america who are very famous for making a monolith like this, making objects like this and hiding them in the high desert in the hopes that somebody will eventually find them. but so far, although some names have been floated, no one has confirmed that it's a piece of their artwork. and you know, that's not entirely surprising. you can't actually install a piece of artwork like this on federal land in the united states. it is technically a crime, so it's entirely surprising that you know, if someone installed this, you know,
7:13 pm
under cover of darkness that they're not claiming that. but all signs of the moment really do kind of point towards an art installation. and aaron, just quickly, what's your theory? do you think it's an art installation or a prank? or is it a u.f.o.? do you think somebody from outer space, you know, personally, i mean, i would love there to be some type of connection. i mean, a lot of science fiction movies have filmed out in this desert very nearby. so it would be interesting if as a prop left over from bad, i don't think there's a real exit for actual extraterrestrial connection. even though some people like the claim that i do think it's awarded work of art, but if nothing else, i mean as a great roadside attraction, it's a great story. and tilton, thank you for looking into this very strange story. thank you. thank you. alright, well following the death of football legend, diego maradona police in argentina have reportedly raided his doctor's office, died of a heart attack at his home. and when i was i had this on wednesday. witnesses have

7:16 pm
make up your mate for minds. well, speech be the new intersection between humans and technology. even twitter is setting its hopes on audio messaging. now even twitter setting its hopes on audio messaging . now, how well does voice recognition work and what else does our voice reveal about us? voice, command, and voice analysis. our topic today on shit. asking the french for recipes, talking to your g.p.s. or turning off the lights with your voice,
7:17 pm
turn off the lights. digital assistants using voice command are infiltrating our day to day lives, but why always so keen? john curtis is a fan, and his berlin by start up, the oval, has developed an open source platform that anyone can use to program voice apps, which work on all devices. and you know, what i find fascinating about voice is how natural this type of interaction is when she comes in. but even a 3 year old child can ask for a specific song, although it can't really help the i know you cannot seem to tell, you know, it's real. 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, which there was going to vote for such. and to say, you know what?
7:18 pm
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 train from there to be your point . are you going, you better that way that they live with this, but might it be a yes, they laid up a 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 dialect. it's a different cultural backgrounds. there are many people who don't sound like the average silicon valley coder developed by the whole community. and there are often comprehension problems. it's all tyros out also just from differences between genders, soft women are frequently understood less well than men. for example,

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 or google, apple i.b.m. or microsoft will understand every word but the error rates fall notable patterns. a 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. just 8 work across platforms for amazon, google and apple. the google smartphone assistant is the most i've ever seen. it speaks 44 languages, but generally the rule for all devices is minorities are not a certain time or to 8 minutes. if you lend and in many countries,

all there's no speech software us off because the demand just isn't worth investing in at the moment on the hill. 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 recognize high 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 a speck 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. this ai program can filter out 6000 parameters from someone's voice, including pitch and tambor. developers from the start up, my dear and munich,
7:21 pm
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, mood this new school system for control of 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 going in increasing creating voice space profiles is problematic once when you get detached, lecture and digital ethics. of course can reveal a lot about my mood or my house phone bill was fixed. those are very sensitive, private status, and even they should be of no concern to 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
7:22 pm
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 them 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 $100.00 muscles, a part of creating sound and several parts of the brain too. and that the reason why our voice can reveal important information about illnesses like parkinson's compared to a healthy person's voice of someone with parkinson's voice was so choppy. 7 you don't show life as a computer scientist into steam or working on detecting parkinson's disease,
7:23 pm
but it's very early stages. you know, if you can, are concerned as a neurodegenerative disorders. it which specifically attacks the motor functions of the ghost. or since it can be detected some very early on the muscle pain was which we have here, you generate sounds and voices and also in the future. it may also be possible to detect other conditions like autism, depression, or currently called that night to look 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 risks back in 2017 . the canadian startup lie a bird caused a stir with manipulated voices of politicians like donald trump and barack obama. i am not a robot. my engine nation is always different. i'm not a robot. my information is always different. well, that doesn't really sound bad. rio is yet 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
7:24 pm
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 this 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 for some is specialized in cloning boys. he home one of what technology can synthesize a voice with just 80 words. we can then let that person's voice say whatever it wants to. in order to demonstrate the way the software works, the voice experts need samples. i'm gonna cottons football team achieve the expected results. in 500 sentences contain all the typical sounds of german
7:25 pm
defense to news clips and in the early afternoon hours in southeast china. an algorithm disassembles the recordings of the 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 be manipulated life and i'm, i'm 29 years old and i'm from germany. i'm speaking in max's voice and it sounds very real discomfort some wish not. i was pretty close to what i recorded voice
7:26 pm
sounds like mckenna and the other way around. i'm max, but i'm speaking an area known as voice right now, and that's a 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 watch for a place identity verification for security questions. fingerprints and pins with voice authentication. that's a problem here for instituting dobbs dot in southwest germany. project head on 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
7:27 pm
a customer. the company software created a biometric profile from his voice sample with more than 100, identifying characteristics such as pitch or rhythm, lynched and when logging in via 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 larry bird or similar programs have not yet reached a level of perfection 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 and see a current way i see voice is an interesting addition. it's just, it's not just concepts. it's into right now. i wouldn't use my voice for banking and so on. and so why i'm going to actually, i need to just move the technology is only just getting started on the home,
7:28 pm
so at their wrist, doubts. but despite these, the tech giants in 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 command for? let us know on you tube or facebook. i buy and see you soon

coffee, beans for every those are very different from primates. you know, we have a totally ridiculous romanticized view of nature and their favorite. and this is climate change prejudice, sex. how to dance in 3 books, you get smarter for free to double your books. it takes a lot of hope that somehow the management can handle the 100, then move on a global lead or go we are living during the most extraordinary time. history class for the fully electric cut no get him in a bad mood.
