for example, data-driven agriculture, these examples, the edgy about precision agriculture is insteadeating a promise of modules you treat the farm is heterogeneous to what that means is you apply water only where it's needed when it's needed where it's needed. you apply fertilizer only where it's needed, as this is only what is needed. you can plant seeds close together. all the stuff is -- >> host: artificial intelligence and uncle ted to do agriculture, how do you use those to improve farming? >> guest: outcome to that. in precision agriculture we need these. we need to be able to build water maps like how do the nutrients vary from the farm? how to build these kind of maps? existing approaches to build this are very expensive. they cost like, the cheapest sensors were five sensors for $8000. for a farmer to invest a kind of money, it's asking too much. the goal of this project is to reduce the cost of precision, data-driven agriculture by two orders of magnitude. from 800 8000 we want to get doo eight. we talk about different innovations. the first one is about connectivity. most

one thing we know for example is from an anatomical standpoint. just looking at how the brain is wired. we can see that the brain is not wired for reaction. it is actually wired for prediction. so the brain is wired in such a way that neurons are talking to each other. you can see that the brain is wired to use your past experience to make guesses about what is going to happen next. and it continually does this. so neuroanatomy tells us something about how the brain works predictably. there is also signal processing so neurons are actually having electrical signals, that is part of how neurons talk to each other with electrical signals.so there is evidence from signally, evidence from physiology, certainly evidence from brain imaging as well. evidence from studies of humans and other animals who have brain lesions. there is evidence from observing young babies and children and how they learn to have emotion and learns to experience other people as having a motion to proceed emotion in others. there is evidence from cross-cultural work where teams

there's a lot of examples of scholars, for example, coming to study karl jung came to study the dreams of african-american patients to see if they were different from the dreams of mentally ill white patients so there was a lot of interest in that. and then also, certainly how they were treated definitely was different depending on their race and also gender over time for sure. also their sexuality. that's a whole other issue that we haven't talked about yet. absolutely there were patients that were being treated for the supposed mental illness of being gay or lesbian so that was a whole other way that they would separate patients and the treatment might have been different. that one doesn't have as much of an architectural component, whereas the racial segregation did. here's a little bit of information about the superintendents, the leadership. above me is charles nichols, the first superintendent. that's probably also patient art, that was another one they cut out of the wall for us. it was out of plaster in the building that had deteriorated over time. first five superintendents th

doudna: there are a lot of examples. we know that mice are used very commonly and models for human disease. to make my site have changes to their dna to make them more humanlike in certain ways and make it easier to study therapeutic drugs on them. similarly, while you mentioned picks, pigs, one of the attractive things with pigs right now, is the idea that engineering them so that they are better organ donors for humans. this is already being actively worked on those in research labs them up but also in companies. walter: so you basically create pigs that become forms for organs for humans. dr. doudna: that is the idea. theer: the what happens to picks, how do you change genetic coding? dr. doudna: you can literally program the dna so that their organs or certain molecular properties, their immune system for example, looks more humanlike. so you can actually transplant genes that are altering or making subtle alterations to their dna, so that on the molecular level they behave in a more humanlike way. mosquitoes, about

your retina for example is wired to remove redundant signals so only what is different, for example right now your retina is taking information that's going to your visual cortex. 's removing all the correlated redundant signals and only sending the differences in visual sensations from the last moment. >> like the dog running across the street or the person you know suddenly showing up. it is possible to consciously make yourself see. to actually book. to dispel this generalization. >> it is, but it's very hard. let me give you an example. a couple of years ago i wanted to learn to paint. and i'm saying this when i have two artists in the audience. forgive me. what i learned is that if you take a three-dimensional object and you take the object and tried to transfer it onto a two-dimensional canvas you get a crappy looking object. i would've used more colorful language but were on television. what you can do, is train yourself to deconstruct the objects into pieces of light. if you train yourself to see pieces of light and you transfer the pieces of light onto the canvas, you will get a

for example, that is when what is

virginia for example, had quite a number of pacifists. moravians had another settlement in north carolina. so it wasn't just in pennsylvania. that's a good point. from what i can tell, their experiences were quite similar. they were going through the same sorts of ethical discussions and dilemmas, among them. and they were experiencing some of the same tensions, hostilities and some of the same harsh treatment as well. so it was very similar in other places, too. ? was there any accounts of moravian indians joining forces for the british or the continental army. considering their own convictions on pacifism and their conversion? >> that's a good question, i'm not sure i know the answer to that. that would be a great thing to look up. sorry. >> since grace college's tradition of the ana baptist and the brethren to recognize during this time many of the early brethren were commended for the way they didn't fight in the wars, but supported them. through as you mentioned earlier. supplies and helping the injured, et cetera. in that tradition.

there are few examples. this to me is one of the closest calls we're going to have in our lifetimes and i'm really glad that you're part of the discussion. thank you. dr. doudna: thank you, walter.

some examples of it, change in people that can occur over the course of decades. a man who moves me enormously, a man by the name of john newton was a british theologian, he was a leading abolitionist and played a central role in the banning of slavery at the beginning of the 1800s in england. john newton spent the early decades of his adult life as the captain of the slave ship, and after he retired from that, he spent decades as a local person investing in the slave trade and growing rich from it until one day something changed in him. something changed, something changed and he celebrated it to the thing he is most known for historically in a hymn that he wrote, amazing grace. another example, a man, who on the morning of december 6, 1941 was the lead pilot and one of the squadrons that took off from an air force base in japan and attacked pearl harbor. he was one of their star pilots, he led one of the divisions there and 50 years later, to the day, as an old man, he came toward a ceremony at pearl harbor commemorating it as an old man came forward in broken e

that example we gave of giving 30% was an example for me.in voice recognition, understanding speech, it went from 8.5% error rate to 4.9% error rate, it's not just the improvement but that improvement was done over the past ten months, 11 months since july 2016. as we speak, they are improving it more. a lot of it just comes from taking the same set of a and a lot more data and a lot more computational power. >> with medicine, the studies we've come across our little conservative. they generally say properly done machine learning system will be at human level performance. i think that's probably lowballing it, i think they're probably better than the average doctor in a lot of cases today. >> so where are most people going to first really encounter this kind of technology. is it alexa, is she saying buy me whole foods. >> you do get those kinds of errors, but i think a lot of it, one example is voice recognition it's clearly not perfect yet, it still makes those kinds of errors but it's been measurably better to the point where i now dictate

another example is in music. of course music doesn't make sense. i think music would be less enjoyable in this universe because it's already out there. so i gave in example and now might be a good time if we can play the audio clip and this will be of a song and a challenge to you is to see if you can recognize the song if it reminds you of anything and i will explain what it is later. i will give you a clue. it's whenever i get this to my undergrads they look at me with a blank face, but the name of the group as the beatles. [laughter] see if this song reminds you of anything. ♪ does that remind you of any songs? [inaudible] anything else? people who sort of picked up were paying attention to the notes but the timing was totally of yesterday. so it was a hybrid song which we sort of cross both of the songs in spatial and temporal and this is an example of how importantho time is to everything we do and how again this idea that time is really flowing but at the same time how sophisticated theut ability is to tell time on the scale of hundreds of mi

or taking america first, and i'll make this my last example. yes, it was all of those things that you said. but those questioning american entry into the european or asian conflicts also included socialists, pacifists, christian pacifists, african-americans who vigorously debated from '38 to '40, '41 was it appropriate to go to war on behalf of the british empire. and so the moral clarity that we have today certainly wasn't evident there. and their argument somehow i don't want to say gives short shrift, but don't quite come into focus here in simply saying the lesson was we need to recognize an evil, and the answer was churchill stood firm, and somehow we should draw that inspiration. so i guess i'm suggesting that maybe the lessons of history are a little more fuzzy or ambiguous, or they can be spun in other directions just as the people in the white house are spinning their version of history. or am i taking too cynical a view of this? >> well, i mean, i guess what i would say is that i could -- so i've written lots of history books, right?

for example you heard me at the graduate theological union. speak about what happened when the maternal life giving aspects of the divine are marginalized. in which there's a single god that loosely has a male gender that leads the life giving aspects of our natural world to the kind of margins of religious life. i think we need to bring a lot of those themes back into our religious imagination. >> new and reclaimed ways of thinking in care giving i think. but we'll be right back. and then dean aaronoff will be joined here by alisa chavez. >>> dr. dean aaronoff and i have been talking and we're now joined by doctor alicia chavez. we got it. i went through a conference, two-day conference which was sponsored by the darma studies. i think that's academic speak for getting together and seeing what we can do to better care for the earth and that is where i met dr. chavez. welcome. you've been listening to our conversation. what strikes you? >> well so many things. first of all, i love the idea of a tool kit as you were saying a jewish tool kit. i

let me give you an example.e in haiti, the head of the centre for immigration studies, mr krikorian, said that maybe the reason haiti was having so many problems was because it wasn't colonised long enough. and mr krikorian responds by saying that the idea that we, a think—tank on k street, which is of course that street in washington where all the lobbyists sit, that we as a think—tank are comparable to a skinhead group is simply laughable. and he points out that dozens and dozens of times, his think—tank, his centre, has been invited to testify before congress. you know, if you use this very blunt instrument of lumping them in the same category... that's the problem — that sometimes the groups that spew racism, or have racism tainting their message, the fact that they get into the mainstream makes them more dangerous, perhaps, than the skinhead group that everyone recognises as something marginal. you know, mr krikorian‘s organisation has published scores and scores of articles, reprinted scores and scores or

an example is reforming the tax code to make it more fair and simple and another example is his school choice for charters. is it fair that a child goes to school where she lives and he also elevated the issue of fairness by changing the way we look at trade and immigration. trade was such an unsexy issue and was even mentioned in polling choices. this issue of trade said it's not fair to american american workers. no wonder the other countries love us. they are taking us to the cleaners every time silly once something is more fair and perhaps the best example of that is his views towards immigration where for years the country was asking what's fair to illegal immigrants any change it to what's fair to the american worker who may be competing for the immigrant for that job for what's fair to local resources are a sovereign nation that should have orders. we spend billions of dollars helping other countries protect their borders and he said it's high time we do that here. data also help me understand the difference between questions which are easy to detect and useless questions which

for example, you will hear more from mr. king about our community planning assistance for wildfire program. wildfire prevention is a critical element to working collaboratively across the land ownership boundaries. last year finally nine out of ten wildfires caused be humans, including some of the most costly fires. if we prevent unwanted human-cautioned fires we can pro-actively use our resources to create resillant landscapes, improve response and help communities be prepared. a long-standing example of federal and nonfederal collaboration is smoky bear. his campaign is administered by the forest service, the national association of state foresters and the ad council. smoky will be 73 next week and is one of the world's most recognizable characters. our goal at the forest service is to work with partners to continuously improve our risk-based response wildfire. no one agency has the capability or the surge capacity to respond to wildfire alone so we have a collaborative approach in the u.s. it includes federal, state, trib

examples abound and here are just a few. insurers have used fake engineering reports to tonight flood insurance claims after super storm sandy. insurers have participated in the sale of unnecessary policies as the placing of unnecessary auto insurance onto the auto loan payment of the borrowers were not advised action by wells fargo as we just learned last week. a medicare advantage insurance settled a whistleblower case for $32 million in a case where the insurer exaggerated how sick patients were. cfa has undertaken a series of reports on the fight of good driving lower income americans. these insurers are unable to afford state acquired auto insurance do the unfair rating factors relating to income. good driving, low income people often pay more for auto insurance than wealthier people with accidents in tickets. it is unquestionably a defrauding of american consumers when insurers charge safe drivers more than unsafe drivers for the same coverage. fraud against the insurance agency by consumers is a serious issue. there a

example for the world.o we're not going to intervene or try to tell people how to run their lives. what we want to still be an example of them of how to be prosperous. i think taking this out of the equation is a mistake. the administration could have said, we won't force demock roocy on people. that's one thing. but to say, to actually eliminate democratic, that's what makes us different as americans. we're not just about prosperity. we're about values. democracy. how do we get to prosperity. we do it through democracy. every man and woman, one vote, et cetera. >> and david, what i find so striking about this is that a mission statement of the state department is kind of like a party platform. no one ever reads it or thinks about it. it never crossed my mind before until someone in the trump state department has come along and said, oh, i have an idea. let's take out the idea we want to support and promote democracy around the world. >> i worry that this administration is trying to dismantle the liberal in

to give you a few examples, i could give you thousands of examples of you want to stick around, but art was talking about the juvenile surge. i think it was approximately 30,000 juveniles can across the border. to appear to be tough, i guess, they were prioritized. the official line is, we're going to give them their asylum hearings immediately. i do not link -- i do not know what kind of asylum hearing a six-year-old would have but we would do it quickly and discourage people from coming to our country. and in fact, what actually happened is the juvenile docket is essentially a meet and greet. the judges are not -- first of all, i am not allowed to be a juvenile judge. you've now judges are carefully selected for people who get along well with children, i guess. really what they do is they just see the kids periodically. meantime, children are following their asylum cases with the asylum office or their in special juvenile status. various things. wasteddge time is being on that. another example is the current surge. docket. really busy we're talking about cases being scheduled in 2021.

another example, unanticipated effects, lots of example said here. one example comes to my mind is the leaver code, restatement of the laws of armed conflict issued during the american civil war. and this code is a founding moment in the humanitarian law of tradition. it's also a document that i think has some responsibility in the death of the 55,000 men who die in prisoner of war camps. the south refused to exchange african-american captured in union uniform. leiberman refuses to take the code -- humanitarian catastrophe ensues. it's making it that much easier for the union to stick to that position. unanticipated positions like this are abound in war. they all thought that the entire body of civilizing rules for war might have the effect of making war longer, more frequent and ultimately worse for humanity. so these two examples i hope dispel the compliance model and its scrap of paper sibling. the law functions in both of these as a social formation nested among others each with some degree more or less of significance of shaping and reshaping th

one example is a portal that enables countries to do that is the alliance for financial inclusion new data portal which is a helpful platform and we hope that more countries will take the opportunity to include timely detailed data that is available for public consumption in order to help with knowledge sharing and accountability. moving to our next key finding. syntax which is intact the intersection of finance and technology provide tremendous opportunity to accelerate progress toward financial inclusion. basically contact includes our innovative use of technologies to both design and deliver financial services on product and if that sounds like a broad catchall term, that's because it is. this can help enhance the accessibility and the utility of financial services for consumers and render the deployment of these services more cost-effective for providers. for example, in a july 2017 report by the institute of national finance in the center for financial inclusion spanish banks is working with the chilean fintec to extend credit access to individuals who may not have a typical cred

just to give you two examples that are pertinent. in 2015 a french tv network went off air catastrophically for two days, and the perpetrators are supposed to be isis who claim we are cyber jihadist and will strike you now everywhere. two weeks later the french government leaked that they establish it was, in fact, russian military intelligence who had been behind the intrusion and destruction of effectively critical infrastructure. the question was why would they do such a thing? and from my point of view the question was quite obvious, they wanted to have cyber terrorism as an there to pick cyber terrorism hasn't ever could. we have terrorist use of internet. that is a big issue and it's a complete issue but we don't have cyber terrorism yet. this would put cyber terrorism on the agenda and it did. for six months i spent a large portion of my time in europe running after new discussions at the french government had put up regarding cyber terrorism. until 1. the discussion would away from cyber terrorism because in the west one of o

another example is music and music doesn't make sense. i think music would be less enjoyable in another universe because it's already out there. i give an example and i think if we can play the audio clip, this audio clip will be of a song and the challenge to you is to see if you can recognize the song, if it reminds you of anything, i will explain what it is. later i'll give you a clue and whenever i give this to my and grab a look at me with a blank face but the name of the group is the beatles so let's see if this song reminds you of anything. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> does that remind you of any songs? does anything pop into your hea head? yosemite said yesterday. people who sort of picked up on that were paying attention to the notes, but the timing was totally up yesterday. it was a hybrid song in which we sort of cropped the songs as spatial and temporal and this shows how important time is to everything we do in the idea that time is really telling, but at same time, how sophisticated the brains ability is to tell time on the scale of hun

the it's great example. there's only one example in alaska where electric is produced very low level that provides needs for the school operating.ilers is >> you can also use it to cool. electricity. in i know i'm out of time. i want to end with a comment. light of what miss christensen is saying, this clear and hazardous waste with for itself or more than pay for itself. somep of that, if we give incentives to do district projects ino energy urban interphase so we don't lose homes. it seems it's a win-win-win pip with the committee forward with that incentives to have those projects. you. >> thank you senator franken. i think the example of is given one.ry small very discreet and remote area. demonstrates the viability. look forward working with you. senator king. >> i never thought i would have a chance to share this bit knowledge. former state foresters smoky bear doesn't have a middle name. his middle name is not the. it's smoky bear. >> that is absolutely right. to clear that up. common misperception. n

swith that classic example to fall that moment of a decision maker picks a white person over a black person. we want to present where they may so we want this person that into suggest that is a discrimination of which we should be concerned as well so to explain that that looks like me is to think about gender. in the '70s that context employers with a real happy to hire women but they are not married and don't have children. and are a certain size. that is sex discrimination they didn't say any women or older woman but just a particular kind that we want women but which ones we want eventually the courts came to conclude that this discrimination you pick some women over others does a mean it is not sex discrimination that something like that is happening as well we want black people as long as day overly identify as day black. so given that context and then one more example the to the sexual orientation the don't ask don't tell policy but that was based on the idea as long as you don't donate -- announce your identity it is o.k. just don't flaunt it is a that we don't want any gay p

some of them themselves there were examples of traders themselves that would fall into bad circumstances but most people did not know the extent of the of brutality but slavery is a brutal institution people's lives the ed baird denied control of their lives so slavery is brutal where you find it. >> host: of 13 colonies?. >> yes. and other parts of the united states at the time did not belong to the united states like the french colonies and louisiana for example, or florida or texas all of them had slaves so when the europeans first arrived when they colonized the native people themselves are also participating with the enslavement. >> host: as we move south when is it abolished like massachusetts or new york? was that leading up to the civil war?. >> the of revolution did end slavery to a certain extent in the united states so we see lord dunmore in 1776 in virginia say the fight for the british you can keep your freedom that is one of the first emancipation and proclamations that he did to get soldiers because he did not have any. so trying to figure out what the heck to do so i bett

president donald trump makes clear that any threats will be met with action and for example he took you know natural military action in syria from the north korean perspective they need to step up their threats as well and i think that's why north korea mentioned specifically whenever north korea gets more specific with its language and with its threats in particular that's where we can look for something changing on the peninsula and in the past there have been violent incidents that have either injured or hurt south korean soldiers for example. at the moment everyone's concerned about the potential for a military conflict let's just talk about the diplomacy i mean one of the chance to finding a diplomatic solution. yes as i said i think in military there are no good military options here and diplomacy might be the only way to go and the problem with the rhetoric lately is that it sort of narrow soz options for a negotiated settlement but there are still possibilities for official or unofficial talks for example both u.s. and north korean officials were present in manila last week for

to give you a few examples, i could give you a thousand examples, if you want to stick around, i'll be happy to talk about it. art was talking about the juvenile search. i think it was approximately 50,000 juveniles came across the border. to appear to be tough, i guess, they were prioritized. the official line is we are going to give them their asylum hearings immediately. i'm not sure what kind of an asylum case a six-year-old would hear the caseould and do it quickly. and discourage people from coming to our country, but in fact what actually happened is the juvenile docket is basically a meet and greet. -- first ofre not all, i'm not allowed to be a juvenile judge. the juvenile judges are carefully selected for people who get along well with children, i guess. really, what they do, is they just, they see the kids periodically and in the meantime, the children are following their asylum cases with the asylum office where they're applying for special immigrant juvenile status, various things. but judge time is being wasted on that. another example is the current surge. i have a reall

i want to give an example of how this thing works. obamacare, many people think that obamacare was obama colluding with the american people against the insurance companies. that's the public face of it. it's a very alinskyite scam, let's pretend i'm on the side of the people fighting against the big bad insurance companies. in reality something completely different is going on. obama is meeting behind closed doors with the same insurance companies and basically using threats and incentives to bring them over to support obamacare. the threats are obvious, we are going to be taking over the health care system and it's going to look very bad for you if you oppose it. the incentive is more cunning. obama says to the insurance companies, we are going to be forcing millions of americans, including young people, lots of people who don't want insurance, don't want to buy snowrns, we >> >> will then finally people said we need to have the guy who can throw across the room on our side for a change. [applause] remember how defensive per mitt rom

the ideas about women and gender were central so for example, the ways in which an american president or policymaker referred to vietnam as she. the american man that is going out to bring democracy and spread american foreign-policy. all of these issues were tied into gender so no one knew what the vietnam story would look like if we put women and is gendered ideas at the center of the story. they are at the star the start e vietnam war and maybe 1% of them were women. they also served the next biggest number in the army corps is the only has about 800 american women that served in vietnam over the course of the military presence from 1965 to 1972, 73 and then they also served in vietnam as civilians through humanitarian organizations, through churches, mainly through the red cross. in terms of vietnamese women from the american perspective, vietnamese women served a couple functions for the u.s. military in vietnam. one of the functions was to serve as domestic workers on american bases. so, women who are watching american military uniforms, cook would come to the base and cook meal

it's great example. there's only one example in alaska where electric is -- electricity is produced very low level, but it provides needs for the school when the boilers are operating. sen. franken: you can also use it to cool. this is great in electricity. i know i'm out of time. i want to end with a comment. in light of what miss christiansen is saying, when is clearing hazardous waste with pay for itself or more than pay for itself. on top of that, if we give some incentives to do district energy, to do energy projects in the wildland urban interphase to -- interface to save homes, so we don't have to lose homes it , seems to me that it is a win-w to workand i would like with the committee on moving forward with those types of incentives to have those projects. thank you. sen. murkowski: thank you, senator franken. i think the example mr. maisch has given is a small very one, discreet and remote area. certainly demonstrates the but itcertainly demonstrates the viability. look forward working with you.

i will give you one example.ympathising with qatar, if you are in saudi arabia or the united arab emirates you could be imprisoned for ten or 15 years, with a huge fine, maybe a quarter of a million, maybe a million. things are really developing to the worst. short of actually developing a government in exile, or preparing a government to takeover, there are other things these four countries can do which they have not done yet. for example, imposing formal sanctions and going further. they have not yet taken that route. it seems it is a stand—off at the moment, that there is no upper hand on either side. i don't know that there is a good outcome necessarily, but it hasn't escalated to the point yet, it seems, where... when it comes to terrorism, all these countries actually were financing and supporting some kind of terrorism in iraq, in syria, libya. this is not the problem... the real problem which is facing them, you know, qatar is a small nation, 300,000. the population of qatar is 300,000, and one of the ric

adds life telling you that you probably shouldn't take that riders spend the night there yet another example for those of us who have been following world events lately our headlines like this one from the wall street journal pentagon offers plan to arm ukraine yes apparently now that we allegedly moved on from arming the rebels in syria because we know how well that all turned out the u.s. is now it's going to pour a few weapons and explosives into ukraine according to the wall street journal american military officials and diplomats say the arms which they characterized as defensive are meant to deter aggressive actions by moscow u.s. officials say they worry that the conflict has intensified with a rising number of cease fire violations as progress on peace efforts has faltered . because yes yes nothing d. intends applies a conflict and brings peace to a region faster than a good influx of arms. i think we all can remember i mean look at it all worked out so well in vietnam in the early sixty's or afghanistan in the one nine hundred eighty s. or syria today arms in places that are a littl
