10:02 pm
a bit over 107 degrees fahrenheit. and the ones world major logical organizations, warnings that more record highs could be on the way for the northern hemisphere. the grease is being heard, especially hard by walls fires, excessive heat, pushing through the 40 degree barrier is making normal summer time hazards, even worse, firefighters are tackling the flames while trying to keep residents and taurus at a safe distance smoke seeking csi, and it's hard to breathe as people rush to evacuate for a 2nd day, 5 fighters have bashful blazes just outside of athens. feel far as ease of ordered residents to leave in mantra, north west of the capital. police tried to convince these nuns to leave them on a street ahead of the 5 front wiley nearby personality. some residents refused to abandoned their homes as well. i'm not leaving. i
10:03 pm
started building this house when i was 27 years old by myself. i'll stay here at least to watch and burn. i'm not leaving. in some towns, residents have already seen everything. they only go up in flames. your ghosts, nick allow and his wife n o had lived in this house for 32 years. they've gone swimming when the fire struck. no good for my home. i have only my bathing suit which i swim and nothing else. and the shirt coverage. i have nothing else. i don't even have other shoes. nothing. i'm finished. france and easily have sent planes to help 5 phases. but while they try to bring the main blazes under control, smaller fires, spring up in forested areas. dried out by high temperatures. the heat
10:04 pm
wave baking much of southern europe is set to intensify this week. in grace, as weather authorities have warned that the extreme heat will bring a high risk of even more wild fires on another heat wave has been announced for greece, so no relief is inside the doubles. use. sophia, cliff talk is in athens and told us more. yes, greece saw the temperatures of 40 degrees and even higher this week, the acropolis, the country's most popular tourist attraction was closer in the hood, is hours of the day in the past days in order to protect visitors and maybe 1020 minutes. uh, before we connected today with you, i saw outside the window, the lights went off of the acropolis, i was show the shop now its on again. so i didn't know if that that has been linked, so potentially record temperatures. i expected at the end of this week as well, specifically on thursday. so now that he'd waved approaches and the guidelines from
10:05 pm
the greek civil protection are to stay in doors, closed, doors and windows in order to keep safe. what do we know about the cause of the fire? well, regarding the cause, there are 3 main factors. of course, the heat weight, the heights, the higher temperatures, and secondly, the very, very dry weather conditions. we haven't seen the rain in a while. um, all those of very high temperatures started late june and july, june wasn't very warm in greece. and in athens and 3rd, of course, the very strong winds that started yesterday. and greece has been hit by while cyrus, over and over again in the a few years and has any progress been made and preventing them or protecting civilian. i think it's very early to, to talk about improvement. what we can say so far though, is that the,
10:06 pm
the creation of the residential areas had been immediately ordered by the security authorities. and okay, this, this cost tensions with the residents. we did not want to, to leave their possessions behind, which, which happens, houses and properties where in our burning domestic animals have been killed by the flames. um, although they have been no serious human injuries reported so far, so the main concern is projecting human life right now, sophia, cliff talking, thank you so much. she joins us tonight from athens in the united states, as it's working to resolve the situation after an american soldier across the heavily armed border from south to north korea. without authorization, officials say the service man is now likely in custody after running across the border during a tour around part of the demilitarized zone near the pen. when john truce village,
10:07 pm
the estate department advises americans not to enter north korea due to the serious risk of arrest and long term detention. the us defense secretary load austin had this to say about the case. but i can confirm that i would say up front that were very early in this event. and so there's a lot of that that we're still trying to learn. but what we do know is that one of our service members who is on a tour will slowly and without authorization across the military demarcation line. we believe that he is in the b r k custody. and so we're closely monitoring and investigating the situation and working to notify the soldiers next of kin and engaging to address a sense of it. in terms of my concerns i'm, i'm absolutely for most concerned about the welfare of our true and so we will remain focused on this. and again, this,
10:08 pm
this will develop for the next several days now and we'll keep you posted. that was us defense secretary lloyd austin. well, south korea based journalist came young student told us more about the area where the incident took place. the military demarcation line is merely a bump in the ground. it's just the line. so really crossing over that line would only take a step. and currently with this to say that there are no, a soldier is guarding the north korean part, especially from since the pandemic. so if this individual in question uh and in question would, i would like to cross over that line. it would only take a split 2nd and the u. one command guarding the south korean part. uh they would not have enough time to react. so indeed it does seem something like this is possible even though it's a,
10:09 pm
it's an extremely x rare case. and we're also dealing with something that we haven't seen before. there was a case of 2001 where a, a for a national of did try to cross over to the north korean side, but was immediately caught by the j guards. but something like this has really never happened before, but. ready the person in dpr to custody, we are very concerned. south korea is very concerned about him since referring back to some of the cases that have happened before, especially the on a warm beer case back in 2017. the us national, who was detained in declaring custody and was later returned home in a vegetative state. so it does seem that we're dealing with a very dangerous and delicate situation. here. thousands of people in israel have been protesting against the government plan. traditional reforms in tel aviv demonstrators or staging riley is that important sites across the city. as part of what's been described as
10:10 pm
a day of disruption. authorities have deployed water cannon on the streets in response to the crowd's reaction comes in the run up to a parliamentary vote on a key part of the proposed reforms, which critics have said what dismantled democracy in israel. despite months of similar protest, prime minister benjamin netanyahu look sent to move ahead with a program, a dw correspondence, rebecca rivers has more prototypes across the country. these demonstrators have ended up when i saw often try to end up and not the main highway . 7 people have sent me the traffic is not arrive at the end.
10:11 pm
the am not happy it's wrong. supports for next week is the bill and the rest of the week for the last 7 will not be the last time the fact that not going anywhere and they will not stop until the government listened to them as rebecca read or as well, the unrest is also cost a shadow over the is rarely presidents visit to the white house is our current stock has been invited to washington to celebrate israel's 75th anniversary. even trying to find
10:12 pm
a compromise over the judicial reforms which have strained relations between the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and us presidential by well, how are the protests affecting president harris office visit to the u. s. i pose that question to our washington bureau chief, us pull. it's the only cold president biden is actually all of his previous assessors is a stone supporter of israel by g as many others here in the united states has criticized benjamin netanyahu has directly, but also he's writing a coalition about his plans to reform courts and, and also his settlement policies, so he used actually really strong awards saying that they cannot, davidson say he means of the israeli government. they cannot continue down this road and with strong words like that to kind of reflects really some feeling of
10:13 pm
many americans. on the other hand, he also got really harshly criticized for that from a prominent republicans like former vice president. my parents were referred to by the end of the democrats as and to submit it. so the country is really divided also over beds and with the changing demographics here, the relationship to israel seems to be getting more complex. but after all, there is no doubt that the majority of the americans, one to one to 2 countries really to keep working together for 2 political and security reasons. and having that said, many experts say that the u. s. is really relationship has never been as bad as it is right now to the united nations security council. as been holding its 1st formal discussion on artificial intelligence. governments around the world are looking at how to minimize the dangers of the new technology, the development of a i as being and company, fine increase and deep fakes and propaganda in conflicts. including of course,
10:14 pm
the war and ukraine. in this video, russian, president tutoring is announcing on state television that russia is under attack. the message was also carried by several radio stations, but it is a fake to be precise, a deep faith, the kremlin and state on the news agency. ria boat said that the speech was fake and the result of a heck this video, which also announced a general mobilization, was shared thousands of times on multiple social media platforms. but defects like this one, the main purpose is to spread confusion and panic among people. here by hacking official tv and radio channels, it contributed to confusion by using official and trustworthy sources to spread this information. defects and generative e i have to become stronger in the past years and are being misused,
10:15 pm
especially in conflict to manipulate people. i think that'd be the recent developments in a i generate the text we know with large language models and age and they're rated images. and we've the foreseeable evolution of the, the fix technologies. for videos. we are heading in the direction of having a huge risk of lots of these information at this information content. 2 of the most notable defect examples in this war went viral in march 2022. 1 was of ukranian presidency. lensky, ordering his troops to surrender. the other was a fulton suggesting a peaceful resolution, both had poor quality and were debunked very quickly or but did manage to cost confusion and sold out in a war. bad quantity fakes can still create uncertainty and they are used to manipulate on a different levels. is that when i have images and video of human rights violations
10:16 pm
in the ukraine by the russians. who can say, hey, those are fake. how do we know the real? when politicians get in trouble for doing and saying things they shouldn't have done. they claim defect. and i would say that that is probably the largest threat doctor here. defects are not only being used to manipulate low coats in this wible example. a man impersonates a russian soldier on has dual units around the chinese version of tech talk. this man shared in man during his 1st hand experience of the war with his 400000 followers. but he was exposed as being neither russian nor a soldier. in reality, he was a resident of hand in china. he had used artificial intelligence too for his followers. several hints hoped to discover the truth behind this video. the man how to hang on accent. what color there are unnatural movements office face at the
10:17 pm
level of his mouth and chin, and an electric ukrainian, a nuclear power plant is actually in hand on despite many users pointing out, inconsistencies, some fell for him saying russian soldiers fight to the end. long live the who ra victory doing in band, his account on june, 16th for disseminating false information, says deep face splashed onto the screen on the screen in 2016 or so. we've only seen an increase in the sophistication and the power and the misuse. so we see the defects and generated a i are becoming more sophisticated and therefore also more dangerous by the date. however, they're not being used in a way and skill as experts had anticipated, but still enough to sold out with civilians on both sides of the war. a christmas or all is the director of the brookings, artificial intelligence and emerging technology initiative in washington,
10:18 pm
dc. and i asked him what sort of scenarios we're looking at when it comes to the misuse of artificial intelligence? i would say on the scenario is the, the dfcs scenario that you already laid out. and that kind of prior clip that honey, i mean for you, but i, i think it's a really compelling one as far as how it can be used and turn it in a time of conflict. and so confusion and, and distress. beyond that, i would say that there are 2 really important scenarios to bear in mind. one is, unfortunately, these models can, you know, if they're trained on the right data can in fact produce information relevant to the man, you know, manufacturing of different, you know, biological agents or even potentially chemical weapons. and, you know, non state actors in particular who might not otherwise be able to develop those kinds of weapons will be able to do so potentially if they have access to the right kind of of a systems. the 2nd kind of big class of threat on the non state actors might be
10:19 pm
able to carry out in terms of um, having access to a i relates to cyber security. you know, these text or, you know, these, these tools are also trained on computer code. they're able to, uh, flag vulnerabilities in different systems. i know it's not the on the, the possibility of a non state actor or some kind of criminal group or terrorist group to be able to use the systems to more effectively hack into a safety critical applications. whether that's hospitals, power plants, etc. yeah. so what kind of regulations do we need in order to make sure artificial intelligence doesn't slip out of her control? i would say that there's 2 main regulations we need. one is disclosure of generative ai system. so if you were, you know, creating or distributing a, a, an image of whether it's, you know, presidents lensky or a president put in, um, you know, you should be forced to disclose that, that is a generative a, that, that was generated by a i and that that's not actually who, who is for training. i think there's very straightforward laws that we can pass um
10:20 pm
there's a lot of consensus on that within the united states within the u, even within china on making sure that that kind of legislation regulation has passed. the 2nd really core and critical regulation would be testing and, and kind of auditing the systems, right? so if something does go wrong, regulators need to have the ability to understand what it was, what happened within the model, what happened within the a i and that caused it to produce a certain kind of information. whether that's, you know, i'm a via weapon potentially or some kind of hacking, vulnerability regulators need the ability to look inside the systems and understand and, and kind of back trace when something goes wrong. what exactly went wrong in the 1st place? but i'm wondering if that is going to realistically help us, especially when it comes to non state actors. or i think it will because once we have um, you know, once we have a good sense of how the systems behave, we can begin to deny them capabilities that they would otherwise have. right. if we
10:21 pm
knew that a particular model was capable of producing certain kinds of information about biological weapons, for example, we could lock down that parts of the model in advance. and the problem is right now, regulators are flying blind, like we don't even really understand what's in these models. we need some way of kind of testing them and evaluating. um, ideally before they're released out into the world at scale for these kind of critical, dangerous capabilities. yeah, we only have about half a minute left, but i do want to know because experts agree that a guy is going to develop more and more rapidly from here on out. will we be able to catch up or are we already too late in the game? oh no, i'm. i'm an optimist by nature. so i, i refused to kind of throw in the towel. i think there's a lot that we can do a i is raising ahead, but there's a lot that the good guys and the good guys can do to catch up. i don't think by any stretch of the imagination that the game has already been one and that you know, we might as well just kind of throw our hands up. i don't think the sky is falling
10:22 pm
yet, and i think there's a tremendous amount we can do both on the technical side and the regulatory side to make sure that the, the future is of a i is a bright future for all of us. christmas are all in washington. thank you so much for your time. thank you. i appreciate it. i as many women across the middle east and north africa are not free to go where they want a new report from human rights watch looks at 20 countries where women's movement is restricted around. for example, women need their husbands. permission to get a passport or to travel with their own children and young men who feel stories of stumped women from travelling abroad without a meal guardian. and i was having a devastating impact on some lives as our next report shows. she hasn't seen a family for more than 2 months off of john e, as in a says he's and from human, she used to live with a family in saudi arabia. last may, she came to you had been on

doors. he's often justified these restrictions by saying they are designed to protect women in fox, they own a violation of freedom of movement, which is a basic rights and going to a, to every person in the world. these are the cause of these restrictions, do not protect women if they deprives that they're going to. but in the home law, municipal stuff, john leo talks to children in saudi arabia as often as she can but being a long distance mother is no, it's easy to do more. and then it's for a mother not knowing what his children are doing. shahan do, what do they have open the door or do they watching on tv, on the file. but i'm like and watching anything on the seems that they stay some of the trying to communicate with them and make the talking to each other. fire
