7:30 am
the of the, [000:00:00;00] the of the and the northern hemisphere, autumn in winter are just around the corner. and some countries are seeing arise in coven, 19 cases. again, we still don't know why and some patients infection causes neurological after effects, like headaches, brain, fog, and fits. he or how the symptoms can best be treated? could yoga be one approach that and
7:31 am
more in dw science show. welcome to tomorrow. today. here at the bush house come posted in southern gemini, psychologist, white comma is conducting research into the benefits of yoga for people suffering from long term oscar effects of a cobit infection. steph, einstein mistaken punch in the study. he's suffered from chronic fatigue since 2022 . so if he says, i have a range of symptoms starting with fatigue, and then you're around, you save enough pain, muscle pain, tinnitus, shortness of breath to us. my lungs are damaged autumn. what does this changed over the next 3 months? defense down will regularly attend a yoga class, but 1st the research is examined overall health parameters like group strength.
7:32 am
they also monitor his heart rate and movement so late to compare this data to that, which they collect to the end of the training period. a range of studies indicate that yoga has helped alleviate symptoms in other diseases. i'm in need of a king's or student. we have conducted several clinical studies on yoga, particularly in connection with pain disorders, but also with on co logical disorders. so cancer and we were able to show that yoga significantly reduces symptoms. we any of you, the stuff on stem hope's, the weekly yoga sessions will reduce his levels of fatigue in cups much and coming . i'm not sure if you have a headache, you could always take a pain killer, but with fatigue there's really nothing you can do apart from lying down. although he lee, he agrees to meet us again towards the end of the course. for the how exactly does he have the support, the healing process, euros scientists, venue bushes,
7:33 am
has done extensive research into the effects of indian meditation and other techniques. many yogurt exercises involve adopting unusual cost is. this appears to have a positive effect on the body, on the break, unless kansas on the south reins main task is to keep us safe and the best to meet knows of body and can assess all movements the more it allows us to relax. and the more we can concentrate to an essential tasks, consumption cells in your muscles and joints constantly send your brain signals about which comp. so if your body a web, this means that even when you perform unusual movements, your brain can create a precise image of your body in space. you can strengthen this process by doing balance exercises. this makes your brain feel more secure, which in turn reduces stress levels. brush the yoga proxy by practicing yoga or by specifically working on balance by strengthening it. if it's something you're concerned about,
7:34 am
you give your brain the confidence to rely on those signals next time as well. and i'm going to do this ahead of these as acknowledge the balance exercises and conscious breeding. have a calming effect on the autonomic nervous system. at the level you'll stress levels the best to your body is able to he in itself in the research team discuss which yoga exercises they should focus on in the study that well aware that even light, physical or mental exhaustion can have a detrimental effect on people who have posed co vid syndrome, ph. d. student liza motion, demonstrate some possible breathing exercises. going to cause industry. this is an exercise the time joy, myself strikes the same pose. you just did. but the other hand on the ribcage and feel how much the ribcage expands. when you breathe in,
7:35 am
mind goes caught venice. i'm papa table then. so what else we choose exercises the to review to do we make sure we don't take the tax? anyone that's very important for people with this condition. we work with what they're able to do. thousands of items of to 11 sessions, stuff on stuff is now attending his pen notes. i'm at yoga class, he says he's not seeing much improvement in his chronic fatigue levels yet. just keep kind of on devin no immediate effect. you don't do the exercises and then the next day, your old back to that's not be my experience. instead, it's a gradual process. on the yoga therapist, big it hotel has slowly expanded the scope of the exercises from week to week. the program also includes breathing practices on the i assign them some spanish cost you're going to, it was difficult for them to do strings, exercises that for us to them. we divided up the sequences so that we could build
7:36 am
up gradually. now we're doing a power sequence, and it seems to me that the strength is certainly returning along with the stomach . now, my impression is that they have moved, vitality and independence type. i. s. improvements have been small so far, but how good comma has high hopes for the youngest therapy. this spot is on your home is also and the exciting thing about yoga and what makes it such an interesting field of research is that it's not as many think just physical activity, but also includes breathing techniques, stock of and these can have a very powerful and very specific effect on the autonomic nervous system, the, some styles, if you focus on meditation and live style too. and i'm not spending steve. okay. stuff on stem says the gentle exercises have had a positive effect. um that his body awareness has increased to, as i said is coming to the is all,
7:37 am
i'm more able to assess things. so i know if i do this then that will happen. and that comes from guessing to know my body and learning to look in woods from knowing that i can stop and exercise at any time if it's painful. yeah, because being fantastic for that, it's really help to you in front of the study is ongoing, but regardless of what it shows, steph, einstein is determined to carry on with yoga. how far would you go to improve your performance? some people use yoga as a relatively gentle way to self optimized, but would you have a computer chip implanted in your brain? they're already being used to help people with quadriplegia and epilepsy. but what about healthy individuals? should they also have it done? if each of us had a computed shape in our brains, we no longer need steering wheels, keyboards, heating,
7:38 am
some stats or light switches. instead we'd be able to control the objects around us with thoughts. the technology is called a brain computer into face o, b, c. i for sure it's a brave new world. i would be happy to leave in a world where i wake up in the 13th of may of 2044. and i have had a very beautiful sleep using my pci to optimize mostly partners. and make sure that i'm fully rest to go to work. and on my way to work, i can use my brain control smartphone to respond to e mails and that much faster and efficiently the feeling the time. many ways be, see, i can make every day life simpler and more enjoyable in conjunction with developments that we already have today. for example, with a i the internet of things and so on at the moment and nation. but guessing a chip would involve in operation if you wanted one, a surgeon would have to open the top of your scale and implemented in your brain
7:39 am
tissue of the chip with then detect the electrical impulses carried by your new runs and translate them into machine language. and it would have to do the same thing in the other direction. fusing human computer with a b. c. you could be online 247 using anita powell as thoughts it could turn on the lights even before you noticed it was growing dock. it would look a dental appointment before your tooth stuff to day king. and before you even realized, you were hungry, it would arrange a pizza delivery. a simplification of daily life or an imposition. the chip would make your brain more and more efficient, creating both opportunities and threats. on the account is investigating the potential consequences of such technologies on behalf of the switch government. what could a brain computer interface like this do for us?
7:40 am
and to us other than just somebody, if i do see it this to say for example, it realized that the person bearing it was starting to get tired and struggling to concentrate the adult when all the stuff is moved, then it would probably be possible to develop a computer interface with which you could influence the brain slightly to help improve concentration, the sequencing cartoons page good for best. but to work properly, the chip would have to read your thoughts constantly and access your inter most desires and feelings. this is where things could get dangerous. marcelo young co works with committees at vice unesco and the c d. the trying to determine what legal requirements and needed to protect. so previously we can imagine a world where the large majority of the population uses bring computer into faces. the diseases are developed without asking for considerations. and there is
7:41 am
a constant exploitation of people's mental activity, people's emotions, people's thoughts, memory manipulation, and even potentially a cyber security of tax. so the same chip that helps improve, you'll focus could also communicate to drop in performance directly to your boss. brain data could even one day play a role in whether you get to pay rise or not. in addition to bosses, the technology companies that already collect to use the data on the internet and social media would also be very interested in harvesting brain data. with unlimited access to your thoughts, these companies would be able to predict your wishes and behavior even better than they already can. you'd be an open book to them. sounds like science fiction.
7:42 am
it could be reality for some of us and just 20. yes. i both excited and scared anytime you have in your radically to us for when you to performative technology coming along. this brings both potential benefits and risk. so we, the right mindset to have is to be both curious and cautious. russian. and whether such chips will be to all benefits or detriment depends on decisions being made. now many people would view brain implants as a threat for others. they might represent a great opportunity. there's a similar debate around artificial intelligence. hey, i tools are playing and increasingly important role in a wide range of sectors of the business and health care. but the technology has also given rise to growing ethical concerns. you are fake dues. i am not morgan freeman. what you see is not really cool. what is really and what's
7:43 am
fake working that out is increasingly important. deep fakes manipulated videos, photos and voices are becoming more common descriptors. ai has ushered in a whole new level of fakes and it's becoming more difficult to tell what's true when. well, it's full license and it also makes it much easier to create fake images and videos. we're confronted by a floods of images every day and more and more of them have been manipulated. the transmission to begins like any to say i can be used and also abuse to view as we look at these potentially abusively uses and try to counteract them. guidelines are available to detect i generated fakes such as the found who the institute for applied and integrated security employee, another ally, technology, super machine learning by studying many examples of audio and video tracts. it can
7:44 am
then to detect cotton is the to allow it to fly got faked content. this kind of a support is crucial because before long it will be effectively impossible for us humans to recognize deep fakes. and not every deep fake is as homeless as this one in which full met jem and counsellor angle america appears to recite some comic thus with troop up here for design. and um, so do you think i can resend that deep fake detection? is a race against time, that's mainly because the aggressive wrapping that gain a levels don't get better on their own. but because humans put effort into generating them or to launch the. so we have to find better ways to uncover and detect fails and push the developmental side to and think of on time. similar technology is also widely used in advertising. our willingness to believe the unbelievable is something called you see a guy has observed so many years. he's not to blame high basketball. people want to believe what they see i'm. they don't want to see. they also don't want to believe
7:45 am
fathering the bubbles in c a g a runs the 1st german based platforms at all. just before that she worked in advertising an industry which often stretches the frontiers of trace. yeah, and that apple that people have been cycling. it's in advertising for ages. there are no ads that haven't been added to title had pops swamped outside, but nobody question simons, nobody ever has the same desktop. the kind of what i had kinda in desktop images can have power. we've known that for a long time, just like site texts, when manipulated images can be used to spread missed information everywhere from out to politics. soviet dictator, joseph stalin, notoriously had those he fell out with it raised from photographs such, manipulation is problematic for a number of reasons. for this type,
7:46 am
the public has to be able to rely on the information that get is because we all need to find out about the world we live in, even in from much to invest, includes janet listing information which plays a role in that process. and if we can no longer trust the information that we've given, we have a fundamental problem, probably this is english and a shot. it's actually quite a frightening development when you think about subject couldn't. and suddenly, without fuss, we can create things that have completely o, almost completely detached from reality. and we can manipulate them in a targeted way for our own gains. and that can be dangerous booth. i'm a give us a good fall because if everything can see a rest it can be faked. how do we know what, how something image is stopped being a reliable source of evidence? and yes, at the same time, these developments bring new opportunities, a new roles, a altis for example, use the new technology to create ok. now this is michelle, i think there's no stopping it was up to even if you say
7:47 am
a i is not for me. sooner or later it will be hit and it's always been like that throughout history. then under the, when a new technology arrives up as disappear and when we no longer have landlines one day we wouldn't have cost that run on fossil fuels such just how it is to solve them. so we need to ask, how can i use a in a positive way so that it's not twisted and use destructive name and so forth for the dates that you've got to you for a minute. but like in the grandparent phone scam, for example, just a few words if we quoted speech and now enough to claim in a voice which can then be used by scam us to confuse eltony relatives and to give him the money. i'm a positive use of the same technology is being developed by google enables speech impaired people to communicate using their own voices again. and that's what's in the doesn't it uses the same technology that can be misused to
7:48 am
make deep favor, send that show this. it has, the technology itself is morally neutral, it's down to us humans and how we use it. and again, that's key when it comes to protecting what's true and also to protecting credibility media. companies use fact checks and multiple source checks of safeguards and what is still knowledge, leon unregulated. so you are fake dues as to, as in, currently, we're in the wild west as far as a, a is concerned. we're seeing all kinds of different play is jumping on the bandwagon like gold diggers who want to use it for their own ends. the, the legal framework is only being set up now. so that's and as is often the case, the law is slower than advance is it's behind technological development. it's just the hosting, so it's good either. so politicians need to get into the new testing. sure. they have to step up to make sure that we don't have these problems in the future will it take,
7:49 am
was following me that even these are popular in this time that some countries have now signed a legally binding treaty and regulating the use of a i as until and if it finally comes into effect, responsibility remains with companies. cloud depot ca go, has grown up ethical guidelines for her platform. guns class, you name kind of clearly we don't take people and disparage them. you know, we don't imitate assistance and pretend to be them to them. we have a very clear ethics when it comes to dealing with property belonging to people and autistic. and phillip receives the main one for an artist on phone peasant in this type. you can basically say that it's about staying real and unreal. well the i, and i know, i think that's really important on dustin is, um they obviously there are also a number of newly emerging apps and platforms which focus on with the link. i generate huge sites,
7:50 am
the phone hold for institute for applied and integrated security office, the deep fake total websites, which can be used by anyone free of charge, of course, or owner dealing with deep fakes, is putney about media literacy. that means questioning what you see online and not just taking it at face value. it's also about using technology to uncover deep thinks. and last but not least, it's about implementing protect to verification methods. you can protect websites with digital signatures and you can do the same with media content. if we use these 3 building blocks, i think we'll be well positioned, the societies shuffled office that we've become used to living in a well flooded with information. now we also need to develop a critical eye to avoid falling for increasingly deceptive deep fakes in the future . the hey,
7:51 am
i is also proving revolutionary and better sense that can support and speed up the analysis of x ray images. for example, that can be a game changer in cases when time is of the essence. like with stroke, patients. in a medical imagine, see patients need help fast. whether it's 1st aid in the ambulance, stabilizing the blood flow, or getting to the hospital quickly. when someone has a stroke, time is of the essence best. even a medical expression for its time is brain. any delays to treatment increase the resulting damage that has a reversible without a supply of oxygen. brain cells die in large hospitals like this one in mines in south west and gemini, patients who are thought to be suffering a stroke or admitted to a special unit until they us because was one of them. then also he's basically when we see 100, when i stood up, i felt
7:52 am
a bit sick and then my left on when know monday it sprayed up into my face. it's safe to the left side of my face went numb, cold and then my whole leg. sometimes comes up by the stroke unit t a focuses on limiting the damage. a stroke can cause a variety of methods and different technologies they used to do. so in the initial standard examination, patients to put in a tube for a so called computed tomography or c t scan, a kind of lab i, la x ray of the break come to the total coffee, gibson computed tomography is available in all major hospitals scans and foster that we can reliably detect to roll out to major strokes very quickly without house reason. once the diagnosis has been made, lodge blood clots in bigger off to raise can be removed surgically. to do so, doctors make an incision in the growing area, then a long cafeteria is pushed up through the main office or east to the corresponding
7:53 am
location in the brain. using images taken by x ray, control the search and then uses a special why a match to remove the clumps? he's the area with the blockage and then again off to removal is the operation is carried out promptly. symptoms can disappear. that's it's not always possible to operate quickly and also strokes it visible on the c t scan. that was the case. we then play a split cuz often looking at a blood sample, the doctors gave him blood to send us to initiate some bullets. this a process that breaks down and discuss is the blood clot. device proved to be 2 or 3 hours later i was feeling much better, relatively speaking. with more, more, the doctor wants to check how his symptoms have developed. use improvement because often and play as play co now has to undergo a further proceed jet to determine the effective this from. but assess whether
7:54 am
there's been any further damage. this time he has an m r i scan. magnetic resonance imaging produces more detailed images than computed tomography, but it also takes longer. and remember, with a stroke time is brain and mri scan. those are expensive and often booked out. although they don't use x rays, the scan can be very loud, which some patients find stressful. that's why specialists that the minds hospital are looking into a quick and effective old tentative, using self landing ai for m r. i examinations used to take around 20 minutes without sufficient intelligence. we can do them in on the 5 minutes and still get excellent results home. and thanks to a i reconstruction. i called supposed to him with a concession into the guns. the research team has already conducted a study into a i supported em. all right. as well as saving time, they found that diagnoses were more reliable because the technology generates more precise images across all devices. like here on the left,
7:55 am
you have some of this image, the internal corrupt, the doctor. you shop, he did any a to well on the right. it looks as if you've taken off your glasses. it's gloria. i focus on travel and play as put cool was lucky as the super shop ai enhanced images from the m. r i scanned shows is kind of like there's no sign of permanent team function and on the critical regions of the brain stem, there are no abnormalities one often. and today, a split cook can breathe a sigh of relief. i was surprised, it went so quickly it was a bit no easy, but otherwise, quite pleasant. the next day he's feeling much better again and he's back on his feet. but see what be heading out for a cigarettes when it comes to strokes, doctors agree that smoking is the biggest risk hunt if our glen is meanwhile, there's absolutely no risk in sending us
