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

they have no humanity and noticed that follows. it's not rare for israel to deny such humanitarian requests. this is why the house on tv decided as a just for that to broadcast some of the funeral. so she can see it in her prison. over the years when we've been talking to many palestinian prisoners who were released from prison, they would say that the hardest moments, even though for those who spent years and years in jail, the hardest moments where, when they couldn't be with their loved ones in their final days or attend their funeral. napoleon opposition leader has been appointed as prime minister for the 5th time. share about how do they will bus seen here on the right will lead to the himalayan nation, as it struggles with political divisions and the corona virus. he was appointed a day after the supreme court reinstated parliament, which was dissolved in may during a political crisis that went on for months. they will, bo was elected to the job 4 times before, but as never served a full term after 2 and a half years of heari

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 rights you are referring. it's quite clear in the report, the report says, abuse of detainees remains a widespread problem. the government generally failed to take adequate steps to prosecute or punish. most of

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 as 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 as car medic. 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 ah, it's not to really, 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 life. 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 get 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 to overcome if the use of unconstrained machine lear

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

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

gosh, my policy is not to distinguish and human computer human, the robot. what was going on? there is no boundaries. because you've been ology technologies a whale by pollution where the human ok. so if we don't have a technologies, you want to be on the what's the fundamental, the upright them one can human is a technology ra, a i divided, rubbing the a much better software. we bought and we can be a war, you know, the high, you are able to, human, the the, the me i need to see i model or do make anything hardware. i'd like to got that essence of night lightning. what if schuman for us, i guess the purpose of my research is to portray sense of conscious emotion. how we feel consciousness on the others. i'm interested a lot in non verbal discussion. talking only make them pitch you read me over the deal reporting it over. ah ah ah ah hello bina well hi there. re technologies have life cycle like police do like institutions do like laws in governments. do i know it sounds crazy, but i hope to break the trend in last for ever. some day soon. robots like me will be everywhere an

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 us. china 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. focus on 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, let's 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 be, 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 very clear, a

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

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

john: clearly this is an active hubris, of human ambition, of human pride, to go explore other worldswhether that is a good thing or a bad thing, well-meaning people can disagree. sharon thinks it is the wrong thing to be doing, and she is certainly entitled to her opinion. others see it as part of creating a future that has optimism associated with it. mining the moon, yes, the resources of the moon will help support this undertaking in the long-term. is the moon a pristine wilderness, or a resource for humans to use? there is clearly human ego involved in that. nasa doesn't cost much money, less than one half of 1% of the federal government. so there is lots of money left over for addressing issues like limit change, -- like climate change, which nasa is very much involved in with its earth observation satellite. so to me, human observation of the solar system is the kind of activity we should be doing, as a window to the future, while we address the problems here on earth. jesse: john, can we judge yet what the biden administration's commitment to space travel and nasa is? we are s

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

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

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

and human rights in the united states may be very different from the human rights...nsider gun ownership as part of the human rights. we consider all those deaths from the gun violence in the united states as a deprivation of the people's fundamental rights of life. and we cannot allow private ownership of guns. that doesn't mean that... no, but, mr gao, you're not really addressing my central point about freedom and democracy, cos what we see on this 100th anniversary is the chinese communist party has found ways, ideological contortions to enable the people of china to get rich, to make money, to enjoy many of the fruits of a capitalist system. what they have not allowed the chinese people at all is any degree of political freedom, any real ability to freely express themselves, to express dissent against the ruling party. are you telling me that that total disconnect between economic freedom and political, intellectual freedom is sustainable for the long term? first of all, stephen, allow me to disagree with your analysis. first of all, i think the system in china w

and if human doesn't exist, everything will be in balance. but human breaks the balance. mm if you look at the see if you imagine want to be like in, like 50 years, let's see like, 15 years ago to probably be as much going on with both of the technical and being. and if i see the goals for the individual that has walker county, there's so much for chemo on that. and i can be seen and didn't exactly out of it. and again, my on the for the on board on is think is to i'm on statement the said also fund and so on. and nish, 5, take ngugi, go august was on the highest and acts like wisdom to limit one. so on and hasten vessels. lim. so laden ones cause a menstrual label to the the do you like it? do you want to locate the buckle up? put the pedal. the metal was right next on the w. o. the news please listen carefully. don't know how to go the field. the magic discovers the world around you subscribe to d w documentary on you to me the that's the the we are living during the most extraordinary time in the history of transport and will hopefully electric.
