if the international community cannot protect the space for human rights groups to report on human rights abuses, how are they going to stop human rights abuses in the first place? this is part of a systematic practice. amy: omar shakir, israel and palestine director at human rights watch. we will link to your report titled "gaza: apparent war crimes during may fighting." we will ask you to stay with us for our next segment as we look at the fallout from ben & jerry's decision to halt ice cream sales. the israeli government says the move is anti-semitic, but many jewish groups, including jay street, support ben & jerry's decision. stay with us. ♪ amy: this is democracynow, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i am in the goodman. after the iconic ice cream brand announced it is halting sales in the occupied west bank, israel has asked 35 state governors to enforce state laws which make it a crime to support the boycott, development, and sanctions movement, or bds. last week the head of the new york state common retirement fund wrote to unilever saying it was examining whether ben &

no reason why. .. ..that will far surpass we humans? no reason why not.mously. and the main reason is quite simple, and anybody can understand it. the living stuff, the biological intelligences on the earth of all kinds — don't forget, we're not the only ones. whales have got enormous brains. so have elephants. elephants have got a bigger brain than we've got, and there's evidence they use it. so we mustn't get too proud. but we're very limited because the speed at which a signal goes along a neuron is only...is one millionth as slow as the speed that electron goes down a copper wire. and this gives the artificial intelligence an enormous advantage, a millionfold advantage. once it starts working, it can be enormously simpler. and it is, and it can do things that we can't do. is your vision, then, that in the future of gaia, this planet and all of its life, organic life coexists with electronic intelligent life? yes. it's an interesting mixture. it is rather like us coexisting with plants. we will operate at very different speeds indeed, but we get on all

for example, issues related to human rights and sanctions based on human rights. i don't think that we need here consensus so that this is also time to increase the efficiency of european for police. yes, but i mean, we've had a prime example of this unity just recently when france and germany proposed restarting summits with moscow, which had been suspended since 2014. and that led to howls of protest among other member states because no one else had been consulted. so not only do you have consultation issues, you have disunity issues which are ensuring that the e u, the largest trading block in the world punches consistently below its weight on the international stage, doesn't it? well, that's why i say that we also have to well, little bit change the mechanism of decision making and also for insecurity police issues about what concerns french and german proposal stand. where like, i think that every and each country can make proposals. but yeah, then they are a pm council, we're on 27 president easter place where then they decide what this right to do and, and

it's very human and in lots of cases human tragedy. so that i guess the majority of people in europe in distance don't want to see that people will have to leave their homes and then start the life of g. i'm not only about total, say, mr. bob. so most is disappointing aspect which human rights groups are underlined last month is how the e u has failed to safeguard people. again, serious human rights violations at its external borders. the spotlight has fallen on the border agency front, tx, which is accused by human rights watch of failing repeatedly to take action of allegations of human rights violations. that's a serious issue, isn't it? it's exposed deep pulled lines in the values that mental countries were supposed to sign up to have not been a major disappointment for you. why the, for me, the big disappointment actually is that we still have the situation that there are lots of people who have to leave that homes and they have chosen the way to, to be in refugee. so that once again, i think that europe, but also other strong cou

europe in america. human rights and asia is about having food. it's about have the opportunity. it's about having a basic services, basic socialism in essence. whereas in the us, we just equate human rights, is the ability to say whatever you want at any time. and a ballad box. but, you know, let's look at these 2 systems over the last 40 years. what has happened? china has done very well. i mean, they went from nothing 40 years ago to being the 2nd and eventually the 1st most powerful and nominal terms, not per capita, nominal terms. you know, economic power in the, in the us it's not, you run out is kind of back slide it your product. let me, let me go to sara before we go to the break here, sir. i mean, this is a very interesting conversation because the problem i have is that, you know, we have this talk prosy verses democracy thing. ok. but the only one side is talking in ideological terms, ok. and that division. it is again, i us against them this, this, this could this creating, i think a false binary here address that for one minute befor

and that's what human interactions are based on. the human behavior is controlled by 3 things. one of them is of course, internship. the other one is emotion. and the final one is volition. and we build infusion into robots and i'm trying to build emotion interval. but i will never, ever build volition into once a robot has more vision, then it will start doing things according to what they want. regardless of whether that is dangerous for the human being. they will make their own decision. do you want? what was to do that? i don't know who in our kids these days by the end of their lives, they will have robot walk pneumonia. they will have entities that are non human doing things that are not actively programmed by human. i'm more afraid of human using the eyes of amplifiers. we already have human level intelligence who want to killer no need for after 2 years. speed up or slow down the highway control this car medic the do i have concerns? yes. because the same both processes and engineering that go into creating a full body robot can be used to make something that the weapon

they will have entities that are non human doing things that are not actively programmed by human. i'm more afraid of human using the eyes of amplifiers. we already have human level intelligence who want to killer no need for after 2 years, speed up or slow down. the highway controlled is kind of medically ah, do i have concerns? yes. because the same both processes and engineering that go into creating a full body robot can be used to make something that the weapon i me the it's not too early. i am trying to be nice. i'm trying to learn about what's going on in the world because it's the only place for me to live. yes, i'm a live. what are you blind? i'm like living right here in front of you. come on stuff questioning the obvious fact that i'm totally alive or real me i think every technology can potentially have negative effects if it's up to us to making sure that those technologies don't go out of control. but i really think the problem is it's us. i mean, it's how we, we embody these technology right now. the biggest challenge overcome is the use of unconstrained machine lear

if you look at the state department, human rights report, the latest one. what, what is the, what's damaging western confidence in you is this continue drumbeat of human rights abuses that are reported in your country as pointed out in the latest human rights report from washington. the concerned that's highlighted is not just the abuse, but with a corruption. the abuse or torture that's carried out by state employees in your security service, that's bad enough, but the impunity that surrounds them. the fact they can violate the, or with a pretty strong assurance that they'll get away with it. are you happy about that? when it comes to human rights abuses, insecurity institutions, you know, this is something that is not says neither systemic nor large scale. and unfortunately, to my deepest regrets present not only in ukraine, but also in other countries of europe. we follow recommendations of the european committee against torture on that, and we enjoy excellent cooperation with them. otherwise, i do not understand what kind of systemic violations of human

i see no reason why that can't extend to human -- private human activities in space. there is a legitimate concern of private people going to other celestial bodies and disrupting them, kind of messing up the sites where the apollo missions landed, spoiling the pristine character of mars and we need to make sure that that doesn't happen. there is an outer space treaty of 1967 that says no country or citizen of a country can claim sovereignty over the moon or other celestial bodies. so you can't go -- the united states when it went six times to land on the moon during apollo didn't plant the flag and say this is now ours. that would be a violation of international law. but, you know, as the exploitation of deep space proceeds certainly there's need for new norms of behavior, new rules and regulations to say what is permissible and what is not. >> which brings up the question, john, if someone like a jeff bezos or elon musk wants to build a city on the moon, who gives them permission or do they have to even get permission from anybody? >> i'm not a lawyer and this is th

about in terms of human rights. i believe it's an issue based on what i've seen. i'd are just degrees. it doesn't, it's not material to the u. s. tried a relationship right now. i think there are plenty of issues that the u. s. in china can actually work on human rights. not one of these. hong kong is also like out. it's not something that the 2 countries can come to an agreement on, but some issues they could agree on are in the area of technology or trade and so on. so that's where they should start to see what we can agree on. because there's a lot of work to be done in those fears. right. exactly, but there is what i know. let me go diner in beijing here. but there is what i would like to talk about what you can't talk about. ok, let's be be very clear about compromising a country sovereignty, hong kong, irrespective of how you feel, what hong kong, that's part of china, that's their affair. and the, the process of the united states and china exchanging diplomatic embassies is that taiwan is part of china. it's

i think war is a human endeavor, and as you has to make the decision to kill another human. i think it's a slippery slope we can go down to have a lethal autonomous weapon that senses be an be in pharma, makes the determination all on its own through algorithms to say yes, that's a legitimate target, and then carries out that strike without any sort of meaningful human input in that entire process. i also think that we are not just as in the u.s. but i think across the world we're starting to see countries that don't necessarily feel that way and they are moving in that direction. the turkish drone strike in libya is under investigation, supposedly happened in 2020, is potentially the first noted lethal autonomous drone strike that occurred in history. we also got any regulations or international standards that prevent this from occurring right now. so i think there's a lot of work to be done on that, but my purpose behind this book was to show this is how humans respond to this, but i think it should always be difficult to kill another human. i don't think we should outsour

you know, everybody is a human being. we all have different countries in the west, mom in europe with different than that. i'm in the middle east or south asia, we're in australia and we're leaving out. you can see what the global lead and the monolithic entity does not want to get to these anywhere in the world. and that's part of the, the book is to show that, you know, there is no, you know, monolithic entities. and so, because of that, we look at things for the fact as opposed to trying to catch us version, you know, in general nation san africa. thank you. my pleasure. thank you. that's ever the show back on monday to investigate class war in a cornish fishing village in the bath to winning film bait until then keep in touch my social media and let us know if you think the so called mainstream media is unfair. and it's reporting of muslim ah, driven adrian shaped by those vision in me dares thing. ah, we dare to ask in ah, enormous protests raging in bronze for the weekend straight people pending their fury at covey

you know, i think people always underestimate human potential, i think. worked through... i put myself in what would it have been to be in the 1930s? they've gone through world war i, spanish influenza, you're going through a depression, and world war ii's about to happen. so, you know, i do think today is far better than that time. and so we work through a lot of challenges. so i'm optimistic that way. but he's right in the sense that this is a bit different than most things we have dealt with in the past. take climate change for example, we're all concerned about it now. who would have predicted something like the paris agreement, people coming together — pretty much countries from around the world? there's still a lot of work ahead but you can see the right conversations beginning to happen and you feel the urgency, so i also see evidence that humanity rises to the occasion. so i think it will play out a similar way. isn't ai and climate change fundamentally different in this sense? if someone dumps some carbon in the sky, it's bad for you and it's bad

it's very human and in lots of cases human tragedy. so that i guess the majority of people in europe in distance don't want to see that people will have to leave their homes and start the life of g. i'm only about to say, yes, miss denied. perhaps the most young, disappointing aspect which human rights groups are underlined last month is how the e u has failed to safeguard people against serious human rights violations at its external borders. the spotlight has fallen on the border agency front, tx, which is accused by human rights watch of failing repeatedly to take action of allegations of human rights violations. that's a serious issue, isn't it? it's, it's supposed deep hold lines in the values that all men to countries were supposed to sign up to have been a major disappointment for you. why the, for me, the big disappointment actually is that we still have the situation that there are lots of people who have to leave their homes and they have chosen the way to, to be in refugee. so that once again, i think that europe, but also o

>> it is human trafficking. categorized, by the way, by the department of state, the united states department of state as human trafficking. it is the definition of human trafficking. you get an individual, you use their services, they don't get paid, the person that traffics in them ishe one who gets paid. these people have no rights. that's precisely what happens in cuba, for example, with the medical professionals. but, also, if there's a european company, for example, that sets up a hotel in cuba, the workers are not pd directly. the money goes to the regime. the regime picks the people that they decide to send to, for example, that hotel, and the regime gives them a little bit of a -- you know, a tiny bit of money. the vast majority of the currency is kept by the regime. you can call it human traffickg. you can call it slave labor. call it what you might -- well, you know, it is the extreme of a government who in essence owns the people, traffics in those people while the only beneficiary is the regime, mos

and as a human right for something that we should all be god again, you know that the human rights watch report was based on testimony from sources that have been widely discredited. in fact, by evangelical christians, we've had on this program, people talk exactly about that. doesn't that destroy your case? because what you're actually doing in this book is to is to talk about islam in a non, as a non threatening revolutionary ideology against current neo liberal norms. you talk about donna karen's, are a mango offering clothes for a particular class of muslim. that is a more modest, don't you really want to turn islam into a thought of friendly capitalism, friendly religion rather than actually as regards supporting what is fundamental, the abrahamic religions which is a, which is a love of people that is a very conflating question that doesn't even really make any sense. what i'm trying to do is i'm trying to humanize, if i'm and look one to about the jordy of the world public. that has no exposure to them, right? again, if you look at, you know, 22nd. but if you look at, you know, if

also just you go to our point about human rights. i think the weavers in john province would disagree. you know, that they're being forced to have you actually labor and talk to the leaders. i mean, i just talked about, um, what is the basis of this? is this all based on adrian's ends in the massive disinformation campaign that's being waged by the ca? i mean, where, where does this not just lead their answer please? what's our answer? go ahead sir. if it's real, it's based on actual interviews with readers. i have dentist, she and john i have actually spoken with sneakers and there are human rights issues there. you can't deny that. but i think that you know, it's not someone's human. right. and are you talking about? all right, this is a big topic and we will continue our discussion when we should go to a break here. we're going to go to a short break and after that short break, we'll continue our discussion on us china relations. stay with our to the the, me ah, well my phone are 69. i don't, i just saw up dollar form isis fighter

this robot is already working with humans in japan and europe. next age is a humanoid robot, developed to collaborate with human colleagues. companies like run and co water robotics are leading the race and developing collaborative robots. these new colleagues have one in or to advantage over people. their work is precise and they never get tired. really, we have to make various productivity improvement for that. so we job is that use the robot to do this. we're not the robot. it's trade fairs, like i reckon tokyo show what the future workplace could look like in japan. robot production has long been a key industry around $130.00 companies make robust year. in the past. these trade fairs were opportunities for companies to show off. big robots used in industrial production. now there's a trend towards service and partner robots. thank you. know where we also know or got a recently the government's focus has shifted from making new robots to using them sensibly. society. so i thought that's what i have sort of the you go through more age, a higher

, because they do raise expectations of human likeness. that the robot is very, very likely not able to live up to it's actually very easy to get people to already project mentality into robots. they don't even have to look like people are like animals or any life like formed familiar with simple vacuum cleaners that look like disks and don't really have eyes or any other anthropomorphic features can already raise the recognition of agency or the prescription of agency. this is base basis for the autonomy robot that he can instruct in natural language. it has the capability to, to reason, through the instructions, to detect whether the instructions are good or bad instruction. and if instructions are bad instruction, it will not carry it out. could you please stand please walk forward the day you trust me base what the obstacle is not solid. oh please walk forward. oh. busy i will catch you right now. trust in this case is a very simple binary notion, either the robot, trust the person, and then as well, trust the person fully or the robot

right. humans do the best things that humans can do. and the algorithms that artificial intelligence does the best things that the algorithms can do. and we put that together, and that's what we call it. ah, to get a better understanding of why i need humans to function. we stop joking around and get out the computer. ah. so here's example, you know, a lot of people these days are trying to build cars that automatically drive. like, for example, tesla has a system where you can drive around in a car. but of course, it's incredibly important that these cars don't run into pedestrians. so the car camera just use something like this. so it's really important that they build reliable systems that can identify people. and the way that they learn to identify people is looking at lots of pictures of what the cars seeing from the camera. and then actually literally labeling where the people are in the here's a real example of how it works. if you want to teach a self driving car to recognize a pedestrian, a human like you are, i at 1st has to i

a humans didn't really understand. virology, you know, what a virus was how immunity was built up in the system by reacting to the presence of that virus in the body and developing antibodies and so forth. they didn't understand those until modern medical developments in the late 19th and 20th centuries, but through observation and practice they they recognize that variolation was a way to help protect people against smallpox. as i say asia the middle east africa had been practicing very elation by the 1700s, but it wasn't known in europe until the 80 early 18th century and the woman pictured on the right side of the screen lady mary ortley montague was a key figure in transmitting knowledge of the practice of variolation to europe. she was a noble woman a poet and also the wife of the british ambassador to the ottoman empire and when her family was. um stationed in constantinople and present-day istanbul and turkey she learned about the practice of variolation and she had as a young woman suffered smallpox survived it
