administration's made contact with islamist leaders in his country's conflict stricken north in an effort to try to end the deadly violence that's been sweeping the region ever him kate is administered ministration and admission to french journalists comes to shortly after paris said it would send 600 more troops to west africa he's got the story. well this is the 1st time we've had it and knowledge that mali's government is talking to senior judge hardest in the area this is as tensions have been mounting particularly over the last 2 months that bloodshed has been ratcheting up and there president cater in that interview said that no stone could be left unturned when it came to the search for peace and an end to that bloodshed. it is my duty and my mission to do everything possible so that one way or another we can achieve some sort of peace because the number of deaths in the sahara is increasing exponentially and i believe that it is time that certain
8:03 am
avenues were explored well as you're aware there is a heavy french a presence of military in the sawhill region so the idea that mali's president is and its government is now talking to these sunni jihad this puts in question what perhaps those french troops are doing to guarantee that security in the region this acknowledgment is pretty uncomfortable given that it comes just weeks after a summit here in france the g. 5 sawhill summit was held in january that was hailed as a success by president matt kwan he said at the time that the summit was a turning point in founding a solution to the issues in this region when it comes to that insurgency by your hard earned he acknowledged at that summit and said that this has been acknowledged by other african region as well is that the former colonial power was the only guarantee of security on the ground so the idea that mali's government is now talking to the senior harvests in an attempt to find peace and probably raise some
8:04 am
eyebrows here in france especially given that french song does not put it we're paying for the conflict in blood and it's also possibly a slap in the face given that we've just had the announcement that france is to boost its troops in the region the armed forces minister announcing that that would bring the. deployment up to around $5100.00 it also comes at a time when there are tensions over the presence of french military the french troops in the region as well there have been protests on the ground across the south whole region of people saying that they're unhappy with the idea of a former colonial power having its troops in the region today and that's something that mack wanted also touched on in that summit in power in the south of france back in january he actually said that there was no problem with french troops being on the ground and he suggested that the tensions were in fact being stood up by what he described as foreign powers the speeches that i've heard in recent weeks
8:05 am
a contemptible because they serve other interests be very interested terrorist groups or those of foreign powers who want to see the europeans withdraw because they have their own agendas agendas involving mercenaries the french armies in the world to promote security and stability well there was no further details to elaborate on that no evidence given by president but this new announcement of this talking with the hardest and also another announcement by the african union that what they need is a homegrown counterterrorism force perhaps suggest french troops aren't exactly that welcome at least in the long term and this could cause some difficulties for president back on here in france he's been under pressure recently to justify that continued military deployment that presence in this and of course now with those increasing troops heading to the area. but the big news today was expected

8:12 am
that when i see now that our parties they are keeping. they are seeking revenge from us no it's called have been in any party in this time in the politics in history but as i say the time now we really need to come together to write or to draw a war or march for the next future. next progress but it's controversial the latest advances in virtual reality tech of men one south korea has been able to come almost literally face to face once again with his 7 year old daughter who she lost to illness should you go if you don't the story a special combination of glasses and gloves allow the mother to interact with the child in the virtual world you can even talk to a using a model voice program which can also reflect behavior another characteristics. you know who.
8:13 am
subset of the watch is an earlier we talk with an artificial intelligence research and an ethics professor to try to work out whether or not these advances in virtual tech could prove more traumatic than positive value the day. it can be a good idea. if you if you use in the in the right away for example if all of grammar and these type of your targeted the chronology can their. personal relieve grief then i think it can be a good idea but they gain it does not need to be misused they intriguing possibilities of virtual reality to make it possible to experience things that we cannot in any other way and this sort of example is a good one where you might be able to see again to speak again to somebody who's
8:14 am
died depict fold my lies in the technical reconstruction of of the corrupter a saw if their day artificial intelligence and this case is not able to request struct a person in their i way then when i you might interact with all of them in this case then. interact in a really not a way so the paradox of this technology is that the better the more realistic you tease the more plausible it might be as therapy or as a benefit for someone but also the more disconcerting it might be and the worry mind be that it might prolong somebodies grieving or even make it difficult for them to get on with the rest of their world if you were an expert or need to control how we use. knology in need to fundamentally put it is
8:15 am
called baidu is on on the use of such technologies there are very good reasons to to think very carefully about the ethics of of artificial intelligence whether that's in health care decision making or in on our roads or or in in huge areas of life where there's great potential for benefit but also real concerns about what the risks and side effects might be. policemen facing about since announcing plans to use live facial recognition cameras and i've seen a sudden burst the now of interested make up no this does all come with large r.t. show john edwards does it with some of the company's new did try to hand it to. make up i certainly rely on on a daily basis but i don't think i rely on it as much as these guys this is a doesn't know they're not of your race but they're standing up to surveillance what they're doing is using anti facial recognition make out to defy the system taking defiance to
8:16 am
a whole new level. looks like an artwork the castle would be proud of themselves well there's an estimated 630000 c.c.t.v. cameras watching london's $8000000.00 people go about their daily lives that's around one camera for 14 people this is just a case of algorithms can already extract information ranging from gender or age or even mood from a single image and then those physical attributes can be linked to commercial or government databases and while the facial recognition technology can provide huge benefits and automation security many would argue it's a threat to privacy despite the arguments against. advancing facial recognition a moving piece of events into a new a while in phase doesn't clip started as
8:17 am
a response to study called. about fresh recognition being used on the king's cross site and we've spent a lot of time on king's cross to say people with us we don't tell you old as a camera there's a camera at the end of the war it's cameras everywhere the group meets once a month to walk through different parts of london mosque with the come a flash the prevents computers recognizing their faces well the trick to downswing as they call it a surprise up the face and as the motto goes less is more when it comes to the beauty routine so let's explore all of the secret of deceiving big brother time to get ready for a war. piece a facial recognition will revolutionize the troika and with the threat of terror on
8:18 am
the rise the pressure for improved security heightens but surely a simple lick of paint called stop this cutting edge technology can it it's expecting your lips to be so it could be the actually you know your lipstick is always this way in the right kind of been a different way it's been primarily tested on white men when it's kind of implemented on a kind of mass level on the streets of london for example. is largely inaccurate when it comes to people of color but well make up like this presents a challenge to facial recognition it can still be seen by other technologies like gates recognition meaning people's distinctive walking patterns are also monitored so perhaps the trick to dodging the system is more of a hop skip and jump away to do you think it's an invasion of human rights or do you think i think you have a right as a think it's again i don't humor you know when we have a right. understanding date and how it's being used i don't personally feel safe
8:19 am
when i'm surrounded by cameras at the moment as a very big widely acknowledged let's just say shouldn't all of this data is being collected but whether the us will step only way from bowing down to big brother the cessna sporting a sniff the sleeping shot dead with the ought to be london it's not this is odd since not to live from moscow coming up among the stories ahead here the democrats look to put the shambles of iowa behind them as the party heads not so new hampshire next week's round of selecting a conduit to run the get us donald trump on the stories lined up for you when we come back. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and she. want to.

let you go right to the press this is what the 43 of the 4 people that i'm interested always in the water. they sit. in a world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks.
8:21 am

establishment democrats in the democratic national committee now that we're seeing with fund raising numbers we're seeing with his rallies we're seeing with the polling these tactics at the democratic national democratic party have attempted have have not worked and so they're panicking a bit quite frankly because they know that a bernie sanders nomination doesn't just represent you know a new jemma credit party but it represents the mentality of a neo liberal orthodoxy coming to us with at. trump's announced a controversial budget plan that aims to both reduce the deficit will a same time boosting funds for washington to counter for many of. the rule of lead today that over a period of. time brings a rubber chicken or deficit down to what it should be which is close to 0 and i think people are going to be very impressed by it so it looks like on the big
