these reports are very misleading as they result from analytical techniques. with poor detection limits. the question i would like to address in my testimony today is why did testing methods adopted and used by the cosmetic talc industry have regularly failed to detect asbestos and what improved new test methods can help ensure we're doing our best to find asbestos in talc? the answer itself is straightforward and should not be controversial to anyone. the methods used in the past and today by the industry are not sensitive enough to detect trace levels of asbestos. we should have analytical methods that achieve the highest degrees of sensitivity in the lowest detection limits plausible. let me explain. the first thing to understand is that asbestos fibers are very small and virtually weightless. millions and millions can be present in a single gram of talc even if the weight is less than 0.01%. good analytical sensitivity is extremely important when looking at very small samples at very low-weight percentages. analytical sensitivity is how many asbestos fiber

so, we started building the analytic capacity to analyze those sorts of programs. we are looking very broadly. various ways to expand insurance coverage, because we realize there is substantial congressional interest in expanding coverage. whether all the way to universal coverage such as with a single-payer system, or incrementally building on the affordable care act, having a public option. the administration has put forward an hra rule, looking at how that will affect the health care system. so we are building capacity in all of these ways, as you said, to be ready if in 2021, whatever direction policy goes, we are hoping to be ready. >> i want to go back to budget deficits. i hear from readers, i am sure you hear a balanced budget should be a goal. is that a worthy goal, and what are the levers one could pull to get there, if that is something worth doing? mr. swagel: in some sense, the cbo, we don't say what the goals are because intrinsically that involves value judgment. our role would be to provide the analysis. a balanced budget would be one -- we could sa

phillip: ours is an analytic one. as you said, we just put out our baseline. now we are analyzing the president's budget. in march we will put out a new baseline that accounts for the actual dollars of spendings over the last year, when the president puts out his budget, we get more information on the actual spending over the last year. we will crank through all of that and put out a new baseline in march. as always, cbo will estimate whatever legislation congress is considering and evaluate that. >> as you think about what legislation you are evaluating, you obviously hear a lot from members on both sides with big ideas. i am curious how you are looking 10 to 12, 15 months ahead of things like climate legislation, medicare for all, things that would take a fair amount of analytic work. how far along is cbo in its analytic capacity at work on some of those things that the new administration, a new congress might, but not necessarily, bring? phillip: it is one of the challenges to figure out what we need to work on now. cbo is at its best and we have done the w

our analytic platform has been predictive in polling. ical it is apart of your competitive advantage. our analytic teams generate votes for propensicety model. that also allows us to target males, digital and other things effectively in state. this helps us determine which seats to target and partnership in the state. one great example is ross tyler's seat in and out virginia. we expected that to be safe but we were not pulling it. as we look at our analytics, we have done some surfing, we nearly target it and extra resources, we won 51 h-49. this is a way we select our investment and be strategic. in addition to that, earlier i mention our five regional political directors who are in our targeted states. in virginia, we have staffers dedicated, she was embedded and working in richmond, absolutely integrated into all the campaign decisions making processes. beto o'rourke has been heavily involved and great to hear from him and his effort. secretary castro will also be down motivating folks to come out for that race and also michael bloom

these analytic standards. there are actually guidelines that analysts have to follow to produce -- to produce something like the intelligence assessment. and, by the way, these, these, these analytical guidelines to follow are the result of the iraq war, the result of relying on a fraudulent informant made curve ball that drove this country to war. the government realized after that we need to do a better job and these things are written down for anybody to see. they're public. >> adam -- >> if i can comment, if i can comment on that. i was the only one of the intelligence community seniors who was involved in the infamous national intelligence estimate of october 2002 dealing with weapons of mass destruction in iraq. that's why i was particularly sensitive about not suppressing dissent and to ensure if there was any, that it was prominently displayed and there wasn't any, so i was very mindful of sensitivity about sources and corroborating information because my fingerprints were on that n.i.e. in a different

so we partnered to build out a data and analytics platform. we juice online panel data and past election results at all levels of the ballot. our analytics platform has been more predicttive than polling in all cases. the performace secrtary clinton received, the legislative results on their own. this is the most predicttive tools and part of our competitive advantage. we also generate voter propensity models, voter turnout and support and we apply to the voter files in states and allows us to target mail, digital and other things effectively in states. this also helps us determine which states to target. one example is ross tyler's seatout in virginia. well expected that seat to be initially safe and we just weren't polling it. but as we looked at our platform we did survey in it that showed it as vulnerable and we narrowly targeted it and we won 51-49. this is the way we select our investments and identify opportunities and challenges across the state. in addition to that, earlier i mentioned our five regionsal political directors. in virgin

and it is so careful and analytical. it is like there is no blood, no message to it. >> you would think that he would talk about it at the debate and he did not say anything. he spoke more about the donors. >> and let's play a little bit of that. here it is. >> barack obama called joe biden -- >> best vice president america ever had. >> but pete buttigieg doesn't think even of the vice president's record. let's compare. when president trump called on him, biden helped lead the passage of the affordable care act. and when park goers called on pete buttigieg, he installed decorative lights giving the citizens colorfully illuminated rivers. >> all right. we'll move on from that. but it is pretty rough. let's move on to bernie sanders. this is one of those when you got to say it problems. and do democrats risk making the elections will them than a referendum on trump. here he is on fox. >> we have a president who is a pathological liar. and obviously i'm not a com uk and i presume the president knows the difference. >> so th

[laughter] this sounded good so i went and interviewed at this company that makes analytic products. and that was that. sorry this feels like a job interview. [laughter] what do you want for me? >> okay so you started this from i'm guess i'm just wondering where you were inspired, you get into it for whatever, but i think the thing that a lot of folks didn't say in new york or journalism or whatever it's aside on the mission. and was the mission there for you at the beginning? >> yes. i was not a journalist at any point until like last year. that skepticism and cynicism, i wasn't reading a lot about the tech industry. i didn't know that you had really cynical snarky valley wag for just these business see -- you won't believe what this young billionaire wears on sundays. [laughter] is the same thing yours every day. except is not the same outfit. [laughter] i think -- we haven't talked a lot about book publishing but coming from that industry where there is no momentum in everything with a dead end to sadly beat a 20 person company to matter, to feel useful. was i not only useful but

but that is why we look at the companies very carefully, that's why we do data analytics, and that's why we do investigations. mark warner: this is clearly a problem area. stephen: senator mark warner of virginia is ranking member on the select committee on intelligence. he believes we've exposed a loophole that is a risk to national security. mark: many of these shell companies, we don't have any ability to pierce that veil. we need that information not just in terms of the f-1 visa program, but candidly against potential terrorist financing, crime, other national security threats as well. stephen: which brings us back to john fong yang's home in mountain view. remember he promised to talk to us while we were standing in a parking lot at his other workplace. stephen: why did you have f-1 visa workers? where do you want to meet? stephen: yong would not answer or even give us a time or place to meet.mpl? did they pay you? john: no, no, no; sorry, i think you're too aggressive. stephen:te, got in his car and drove away, and we never heard from him again. stephen: we also reached out to

to improve analytics of raw a lot spots this means. a drop of blood put on to a small paper card and try it and it will ask why we are doing that the reason for this is that it may be difficult to transport liquids plot samples in some areas geographical regions. and it's much more easy to transport a dry lot spot on a card in an envelope put into the mail the 2nd example is analytics and diagnostics to detect and to monitor or model function of kidney diseases or at kidney disease and here we develop new markers which allow and facilitate to properly estimate the degree of kidney malfunction many of my patients ask me if it's possible to detect cancer in the blood so is it possible well early detection of cancer in the blood is a real challenge. and with the exception of prostate specific antigen p.s.a. to my personal view we have no screening chil marker which allows early detection of cancer but there are prospects that we will be able to develop such tests based on genetic or and epi genetic testing on bio chemical testing and poss

didn't but they were very kind about it and said there is something you should know about with this analytic software to see how people were using it and doing very minimal just like data analysis. and those who make the software fewer than 20 people in the rocketship and then i thought i want to be in a rocketship. so i think this could potentially make the list. in three years. >> am sorry it feels like a job interview. [laughter] >> what do you want so were just wondering and then to get into it for whatever but in new york or wherever and also sinai. and at least in the beginning. >> yes. i was not a journalist at any point except last year. wasn't reading about the tech industry that it was cynical snarky or business see you will not believe what the young billionaire wears on monday. [laughter] the same thing he wears every day without having to lie of book publishing where and then not to feel that i matter but and i was doing consumer porch but avoids lists of the mission of the company than working on something with people that i liked and it was working. that seems improbable you h

it makes the data analytics product. it feels like a job. what do you - >> get into whatever but the thing a lot of folks in new york or journalism or sign i, was the mission good for you? >> yes. i was not a journalist at any point until last year. that skepticism, i wasn't reading about the tech industry, and what this billionaire wears, the same thing he wears every way. i think we have not talked a lot about book publishing but in the issue where there was no momentum everything was a dead end, a 20 person company and to matter, to feel useful, i was contributing in any way that kept the momentum going. the genius was here to build infrastructure. it was less about the mission of the company than the people of working on something with a small group of people, it was working and that seems improbable you would have an organization, a 24, 25-year-old, it keeps getting better and better. and the momentum, if this was going to make the world a better place, i personally find the product interesting and can sort of justified as an extension

. >> can she handle analytic geometry? >> absolutely. and she speaks. >> yes, sir, i do. >> which one? >> both. geometry and speaking. the -- you think you can find me the frame for this the --sing >> the algorithm, yes, sir. it.efer >> katherine has had the fortune hollywood shine a light on her life. there are people right here at no ideaginia that had of what katherine johnson did for nasa and for the united of america. and so when the movie "hidden showed" came out, it everyone who katherine johnson how what she did and profound she was in the pages of american history. as what they hired call then a computer, where she didly came in and mathematical type of equations for nasa. what they didn't realize was was more than just a computer. she was a mathematical genius. what katherine johnson was. four, three, two, one. zero. ♪[music] >> in fact, john glenn, who said this computer thing, not katherine, this actual computer was built calculated his actual trajectory into space and verified byat katherine johnson. now, here's the importan

it's to use facial recognition software and it is to use data analytics against their people to consolidate power especially in the federal government. .. >> sofa the rules that we have typically used, in a free society and i see two different systems developing long-term. technology, there is a chinese system and then there is a freight world system that plays by the rules and protects intellectual property. it. >> this whole notion after the cold war, women have something that was going to be put together. >> i don't see that happening and i hope i'm wrong. it would be an amazing development. if china actually started being a first world power for their authoritarian state. they use the tools of technology against their people to consolidate their own governmental power. you can have hope. but based on the way that i see this developing. matthew whitaker: i see them, and the chinese, really just continuing their behavior stealing our technology to pursue their own credit. >> i have finally help and that american ingenuity and technology, and so we got to make sure that we continue to allo

element which still says you should be able to accommodate him and if you look at it from a purely analytical point of view could she pull everyone together i suspect there's a real doubt in people's minds about that ability and that's where a president fails if he has a chance of being a very senior member of the new shadow cabinet when there's another leadership election which inevitably there will be she might do very well so i know then peel it lisa land because she's still a man of jo's a surprise packet in the race i can see legally potential lisa nandy. in a way that i didn't expect to you know a few months ago i can see why she is doing as well as she is she started as the least well. but has forced her much the most impressive and interesting of the campaigns to have been that unfortunate remark in catalonia because people draw the line that successful socialists governments so go back to old ladies across the head not even improbable not was how you're going to hear and that shows i mean she claims she was misinterpreted kind of read back what she said that wasn't entirely misinterp

even looks a bit dull when he's at the dispatch box he's not an animated figure but he is coldly analytic and he does therefore see the issues if he can formulate the strategy and react on his feet which is something let's be honest eric holder was not good at the prime minister's question time generally called him was awful but the follow up question here starmer is a natural for that role as a q c if he can do that then he has the ability to get johnson on the ropes but it's only if johnson gives him the chance to kick start has the potential once things go wrong johnson if has the killer instinct then he has the ability probably to actually achieve it but all of those are conditions to be taken into consideration so yes he could win the next general election but there's a lot of ifs on the way so could suck your. starmer blore bottles johnson of course will little quite a bit of help there's a very good quote from a former well known now dead labor cabinet minister who. would know much about who said of margaret thatcher power made her beautiful now what barbara casa meant by that was

and then spent some time being analytical. these triangles here are where ai intersect. in most precision models democratize ai, distinct patterns. this is how we will do it. so let me talk about the decision i am facing today. i saw greta on tv. and she was so compelling. she said we've got a climate crisis. and though i resolve this, it is really simple. stop worrying about analysis and then at the very least, pavers and trees. the organizations all over the world that will take your money and buy trees. in the streets will grow and so there will be more biomass and that will have some carbon and if enough people do this perhaps, but i don't know if she said this trees alone will do it but she said it would make a big difference. i haven't sent any money to a tree organization yet. i can't visualize how this money that i might send needs to achieve to some outcome. if i am going to use ai to benefit me, i want interactive fun experience. and so this is what i think the future is of ai. it will look like a videogame. and i hope we can do some of this in the basement bec

we continue to bring the irs into the 21st century by updating systems, utilizing data analytics, and other technology advances to enhance the effectiveness of audit enforcement activities. we are requesting program integrity cap adjustment to reduce the tax cap of the savings of over $64 billion over ten years. we also remain focused on improving customer service for taxpayers by reducing coal call and wait times, and enhancing online service capabilities. i'm pleased to be here with you today, thank you very much i look forward to answer your questions. sen. grassley: we will have a five-minute rounds. mr. secretary, critics of tax reform have suggested that the treasury created loopholes for big companies and regulations as part of a secretive lobbying process. the idea process has occurred in secret is hard to understand given that the comment. in the administrative procedures act gives people opportunity for input. and i don't see how you can't do your job of implement a new law -- implementing a new law without listening to stakeholders. the preamble to each set of regulations m

which i guess is over here you don't have room for the creative side spend time being analytical. most decision models i believe as we democratize, this is the pattern. she was so compelling is that we have a climate crisis and the way that we sold this, it's simple, stop worrying about analysis at the very least. there are organizations over the world will take in money and if enough people do this, perhaps on its own perhaps it would make a big difference. i don't know how it would lead to a chain of events of an outcome if i'm going to use ai to benefit me, i want a visceralwon't bevisceral, intern experience. so, this is what i think is the future. it's going to look like a videogame and i hope that we can do some of this in a basement because we can do this and walk through the spaces and what are we doing in the spaces, experimenting with actions we might take and letting the computer help us understand the chain of events that lead to the consequences. valuable in the personal level and organizational level. let's see if this works. it has no purpose whatsoever. we are tryi

on page 8 is the enterprise systems, analytics, highlights of their work. living in this technological age that we are in, we are fortunate to have a superb enterprise system and analytics team that provides the backbone for the data that we collect and analyze and report. that's a tremendous, tremendous effort, including -- i note the statistics that talks about the i.r.s. forms that we have to put o out, 53,000 of them. so there's a wide range of data services that are provided. the medical plan enrolment i won't discuss here today and the voluntary benefits and flexible spending account you heard about, those are important benefits to our members. the voluntary benefits we did give benefits to our members who couldn't partake in open enrolment. it was heartening to see that that different strategy yielded some good results. the big highlight of the year, as we all know, on page 12 is the success with the benefits. it is now available to the active population. we have over 7,000 retirees with access to e-benefits and we'll continue to increase that number

runa donald trump but only going to run a good enough campaign, and even of war chest, either using analyticst is also illegal and ethical and effective. mr trump isa and ethical and effective. mr trump is a very formidable campaigner, has a very strong base. so, you know, the democrats need to get their act together. but we will see. democrats need to get their act together. but we will seelj don't together. but we will see.|j don't know who you, which side you are on and here but if you are to vote democrat, who would you vote for? i would like to say at this early stage. i'm going to keep my cards close to my chest is what we been hearing from them for months, it is not that early. it is early in terms of seeing how the american people respond to the american people respond to the messages. i think the lesson of 2016, at least for me in terms of political risk, has been careful not to take your guidance from things like twitter and finding out what the american people are actually thinking and what they say they're thinking this is what they actually vote for who they select. it can be ver

analytics is fascinating and i personally find this product interesting and can sort of justify it as a bachelors degree from six years ago. but i don't think i was over like data collection storage analysis, unbeknownst to the user, god knows what goes, fascinating by making the world better but this is fundamentally interesting. and if this is education, i think this is an industry that emphasizes the individual and so i'm not individually quite useful and great in a way that was tied to the collective effort but also less distracting and perhaps data collection is a broader economy, we were not having this conversation. >> you ever get into the large larger -- >> no, it is working for your customer and help it is optimize your making money and they make money when you make money, whatever it does not matter. but the feedback, the thing that you helped make even though i did not make it i'm just helping people use it, the thing you're participating in is helping us make money. or you have no problem with the software, let me take how to fix it, have you ever had knowledge about some

you can read a book about it because i just did over the weekend, but the subtitle is cambridge analytic and the plot to break america and it's written by christopher whiteley who is the whistleblower from cambridge analytic and he told the story of steve cannon, the russians team and how they used for the first time in american history all of the data facebook has about you and me and everybody on the states used the data to figure out the psyche of america and then to figure out how to win the electoral college to use thacollegeto use that ina way. but in a more sinister fashion, to inject poison into the bloodstream of america through facebook and twitter and the social media. they went out looking for what they called the dark triad of the psychological an and this i, narcissism, machiavelli a. these three emotional currents they said would be the key to driving a wedge through the heart of america by creating ethnic racial religious partisan conflict, finding of fault lines that were pre-existing in the country and that exacerbated them and claiming them to the point where you get w
