today is also the first of two events we're holding for the first time with carnegie mellon university, one of the world's premier universities and a fellow member of the imsuppressive group of institutions founded by andrew carnegie more than a century ago. andrew carnegie created these institutions at a critical historical juncture. the foundations of the international order that prevailed for most of the 19th century were beginning to crack. catastrophic war and disorder loomed and the last great surge of the industrial revolution was transforming the global economy. the carnegie ebb doundowment, tr with its sister organizations, thought to help establish and reinforce the new system of order that emerged out of the two world wars, a system that produced more peace and prosperity in the second half of the 20th century than andrew carnegie could ever have imagined. it's hard to escape the feeling that the world is once again at a transformative moment, profound forces are shaking the underpinnings of international order, the return of great power riflery and the rise of conflict afte

as two organizations that reflect a strong legacy of andrew carnegie, carnegie mellon university and carnegie endowment for international peace have formed a powerful partnership to examine technology and diplomacy across the set of emerging areas, critical to our collective future. it's my sincere hope that this event as the follow up colloquium which will take place at carnegie university on december 2nd formed the basis for broader relationship between our institutions. let me also add my thanks to dr. gregorian, president of the carnegie corporation of new york who provided support for both of these events. and in fact, based on a conversation that ambassador burns and i had a few months ago. dr. gregorian was very enthusiastic and supportive of this effort. i understand -- to understand cyber and security, we must first recognize cmu as a place where pioneering work in artificial intelligence took place decades ago. every since herbert simmon and alan newel created artificial intelligence in the 1950s before the terminology was even recognized broadly, cmu has remained cutting ed

the planning for this, the first one was essentially to bring together the technical experts of carnegie mellon university and the policy expert from the carnegie endowment. that is why each panel is setting a stage presentation with one of the technical experts from carnegie mellon university and followed by a panel discussion. the second idea was to bring in people from around the world for the panel discussion. i'm particularly pleased to not only welcome our partners from pittsburgh, but also to welcome for example a panelist from hong kong. join the event on december 2nd, and please drop your business cards outside or send us an e-mail, and i would now like to sbrus andrew moor from carnegie mellon university. and the computer science school has been ranked as the number one school by u.s. ne news repeatedly in the last few years for the grass roots program. andrew, prior to becoming dean for the last few years, was vice president of engineering at google commerce. he's been on the faculty of cmu since 1993 and named for the association of artificial intelligence in 2005. keeping with the

can, and -- carnegie mellon, and an mba at stanford.t it does not necessarily set you up for success. this caused some controversy, which i know you're not shy about. one commentor wrote that the real assertion is that humanity is tied to the accumulation of wealth. what is your response? khosla: that is a nonsensical response. ist liberal arts has become work.use to do less i speak to 80% of students who do it for the wrong reason, but bottom line, if liberal arts goals are the goal, then liberal arts is the wrong curriculum. logic and philosophy should absolutely be part of any liberal arts curriculum because otherwise, you do not learn how to think. linguistics, economics, learning how computers work because we live in a computer age. why require a second language that is french for some esoteric language when the most important second language is computing? not that most people ever need to code, but because it is a style of thinking. the critique is all from people i feel they'll to understand, which is exactly the point i was maki

earlier this morning for the first panel, this event is designed to combine the tech expertise of carnegie mellon university with the expertise of the carnegie endowment. it will be followed by a panel discussion with experts from around the world. so we are particularly pleased and delighted to have people from israel and india who came up all the way specifically for this event. it's now my pleasure to introduce you to daryl brumley, director of the security institute at carnegie mellon university, he's also ceo of a company called for all secure, which won the darpa cyber grant challenge this year. it's a great pleasure to have him here. with that, i look forward to that panel discussion. thank you.

[laughter] you already know that it was a love of books and that the choice was excruciatingly hard. such a lot of books but also such a lot of great and important books. i was very impressed with how many books on history we had to read this year, how many striking memoirs were red. and i realized at one point i was thinking if my 15-year-old daughter, who is actually here today because she had the job of alphabetizing the books and sorting them and resorting them, if she had read nothing but the books that were nominated by publishers for the nonfiction award this year, she would be a really well-educated person

an engineering degree, biomedical engineering at carnegie mellon, an mba at stanford.ou wrote a post about majoring in liberal arts as a mistake for students. it caused some controversy, which i know you're not shy about. one commentor wrote, "the real purpose of human existence is fundamentally tied to the regulation of wealth." vinod: that is a nonsensical response. what liberal arts has become is an excuse to do less work. it's not everybody. i speak to the 80% of students who actually do it for the wrong reason. the bottom line, if liberal arts goals are the goal, then liberal arts as taught today and taken today is the wrong curriculum. emily: what should they study? vinod: logic and philosophy should be an absolute part of any liberal arts curriculum. because otherwise you do not learn how to think. linguistics, economics. learning about how computers work. because we live in the computer age. why acquire a second language when the most important language -- the language is computing? second not that many people ever need to code. is a style of painting the criti

as it is quite straightforward will give some examples if you read the headlines juicy carnegie-mellon uc the up proclamations' executives are making in the automotive business they are used to hype and when it comes to do everyday matters marketing hype is okay but such as this said think it is disingenuous because the words are so flippantly thrown around such as autonomous or autopilot or so strivings of the consumer thinks i go home and i hit a button i can go anywhere in america at any time under any condition and we know that is not the case berger if you go to some of the pilot test out of pittsburgh the headline says the autonomous cars are roaming pittsburgh beat paragraph says there is 45 interruptions this new technology is emerging but if we over hype and over stimulate the customer will have the extrication with that is not meant there will be a lack of trust and then there is a problem that is true with the consumer and also the government of course, their point of view there making proclamations that not true that don't manifest themselves in the marketplace you'll have

educational area of the city which is very true today because both the university of pittsburgh and carnegie mellon university border the carnegie library. there's also not far from here several other colleges. there's also pittsburgh public schools are around here as an educational area in the city of pittsburgh. as we move along here, i pulled from the invitation that was sent out to the public for the opening of the original library building in 1895. now, i pulled some carnegie correspondents. his letters are fabulous on many accounts. one, they give detailed information what's going on in the building of the building, but as you can see on a number of these, carnegie just did not hand a piece of paper over to secretary to type. carnegie, and then he would sign the letter when it was finished. he would go in afterwards, cross things out, to post-it notes, anything that needed to be added in. he just did. so it's a wonderful chance to see carnegie's own handwriting. and they're really pretty interesting as well. when the library initially open in 1995, carnegie knew immediately that it needed to

doing ine what uber is pittsburgh, carnegie mellon, in the automotive business were look -- were usedlot of high. when it comes to everyday matters, a little bit of marketing hype is ok. when it comes to matters such as this, i think it's a little bit disingenuous because words are flippantly thrown around. when someone says autonomous, when someone says self driving. the consumer thinks i come out of my home, i hit a button, and that car will take me anywhere in america at any time under any conditions. as we all know, that is not the case. >> watch "the communicators," at 8:00 eastern on c-span2. >> we have a special webpage to help you follow the supreme court. and select-span.org supreme court near the right-hand top of the page. you will see for the most recent oral arguments heard by the court's term, and click on the view all link. in addition, you can find recent appearances by many of the supreme court justices or watch justices in their own words, including one-on-one interviews in the past few months with justices kagan, thomas, and ginsburg. there is a calendar for this te

as an educational area of this city which is true today with the university of pittsburgh and carnegie-mellon or the carnegie library. also several other colleges so this area has developed with a vision of an educational area in the city of pittsburgh. >> i pulled from the invitation that was sent out to the public of the original library building 1895. couple somme carnegie correspondence. but day guest detailed information on what is the legal and -- going on bed and number did not just handover a piece of paper to his secretary to type he would sign the letter when it was finished. he would go in and afterwards to cross things out, posted notes or anything that needed to be added. it is a wonderful chance to see his own handwriting. and they are pretty interesting is well. when the of library initially opened 1895, carnegie knew immediately it needed to be larger as was mentioned earlier. so he decided he wanted to have a larger space. not all i'd like those two towers that were outside and is building there are these two towers which i personally like but he himself did not had the means

pictures of his family, works from his era carnegie tech, now carnegie mellon.was there from 1944 to 1949. we are going to look at one of his paintings he did for his senior year. "nt this canvas called osepicker 1." the reason why it is so fascinating is because it is pretty provocative of a subject matter. this portrait of a young boy picking his nose. he submitted it to one of us important shows of the year. a huge salon style exhibition. it was denied by the jury. warhol did not give up. that summer he showed it again with a different title of "why pick on me" for the student show. it has a little bit of biographical reference. i am fascinated by some of warhol's early fixations on his own body or the bodies of others. he is known for talking about how he did not like his nose, his family called them the red nosed warhola. he was known as spot because of discoloration and his skin in his teens growing up. it was sort of the person behind the work. warhol obviously had a certain charisma about him. throughout his entire life. i think that also manifested here

. >> thank you, i'm the dean of the college of energy at carnegie mellon university. i want to come back with this idea of privacy versus personalization. it would seem the last part of this discussion raises the question, why doesn't we apply personalization to privacy? so, you know, the only choice being i have to take one blank consent form, it's either that or nothing, where is if there were some way for me to fill out a privacy profile so that it described what i wanted to share, what i didn't want to share, how i wanted to share my data, could that not then be applied against whatever the company is saying is their privacy policy, so i don't have to read every one of them, i simply spend the time saying what i'm about, and let the interaction happen, more like a personalization applied to privacy. >> that seems to remind me of the point you brought up about how competition in the private sector can potentially mitigate against abuses of privacy policies. maybe this is a question you can respond to. >> sure. and there are a couple of avenues that i think come to
