: yeah, marvin minski, an incredible scientist to mit, most of his life and pioneer in the field, he died i believe in 2015, or maybe last year. anyway, he continues to have a huge influence on the field today, he laid the groundwork for a lot of work that goes on today and frequently is referenced in new york -- new work. that work on education is very interesting, and it is kind of a torch being carried forward by people in the ai community today. canink most of us understand how having a personalized educational program developed for you by a ,ne-on-one tutor would be ideal but the reality is that not everyone can have that. but, if software is involved in assessing your work or monitoring your works, you can generate that kind of personalized material for every student, and there are certainly companies looking at that and i think there are some promising results. host: couple minutes left here. susan in texas, republican. susan i've been reading about : quantum computing, which is of course revolutionizing how we think , about reality. i'm a nontechnical person, but it is really

brent: jim walsh with mit's security studies program joining us tonight to talk about what to do withorth korea. thank you very much. here are some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. the united states has admitted it has far more troops in afghanistan than previously stated. defense officials say there are about 11,000 soldiers currently in the country. the pentagon said last year there were roughly 8400 troops under a cap set during the administration -- obama administration. the u.n. high commissioner for human rights voiced concerns over derogatory remarks made by joh donald trump about journalists and the media. he warned they could incite violence against journalists and other communities. in saudi arabia, muslims have begun the pilgrimage to mecca. the hage is islam's most holy site. observant muslims are required to perform the hage at least once in their lifetime. around 18,000 muslims have fled fresh violence in myanmar in less than a week. human rights groups say myanmar's army has retaliated for last week's attacks by rohingya militants by burn

this is a man with three degrees from mit. when he speaks of technology he's talking about ideas that can create a great advantage. what he was doing was harnessing this understanding of political economy developed by buchanan in order to achieve what he wanted. i think you will know that he wants a very audacious, radical change in our institutions. ready to did and it's worth knowing this man is compared himself to martin luther. he's got that messianic sense of his mission in life. so koch of the money and he been funding intellectual spies on description when he gave this morning for some three decades, until he found the technology he wanted. he found that at george mason and he turned it into an operational strategy for something that he can have long advocated a buchanan spoke of chaining leviathan when he was very clear to me from everything else i found in newspapers and in his correspondence and his writings that when he spoke of in chaining leviathan was what he really meant was to nj and modern democracy. to underm

live now to richard hynes, a geneticist at mit., i know you co—chaired a major report this year on human genome editing, for the national academy of sciences in the us. how big a deal is this development? it isa how big a deal is this development? it is a significant advance. there are actually a couple of advances in the paper which show this technique can be much improved over what we saw six months ago. it still has a lot of work to be done before this could be used clinically, and i will come back to this, but before you would consider using it, there is going to be lots more debate about theissues going to be lots more debate about the issues raised by one of your previous figures. but they have made great progress in this paper. it is a very nice scientific paper showing, convincingly, that the m ista kes showing, convincingly, that the mistakes which are called off target of fa cts mistakes which are called off target of facts —— a facts can be reduced toa of facts —— a facts can be reduced to a low level, to the point where

i've been speaking to the mit geneticist, richard hynes, who gave me his thoughts on how significantnce. there are actually a couple of advances in the paper which show this technique can be much improved over what we saw six months ago. it still has a lot of work to be done before this could be used clinically, and i will come back to this, but before you would consider using it, there is going to be lots more debate about the issues raised by one of your previous figures. but they have made great progress in this paper. it is a very nice scientific paper showing, convincingly, that the mistakes which are called off—target effects can be reduced to a low level, to the point where they could not detect any errors. that does not mean there were none, but they‘ re clearly very low and hard to distinguish from the background among differences among different embryos. that is one big advance. the second is that if you edit in an embryo, there is a problem called mosaicism, where some cells may be edited and others not. that has been a big hurdle. they have improved that quite a bit. they

on yesterday's program, lilly chin from mit was the only player to come up with the correct responsen final jeopardy! she walked offstage and immediately took a selfie of herself because she gets to come back to play for $100,000 later this week. clarissa, n,ha and viraj, one of you three will be joining her. good luck. here we go.

in january 2017 the gsa agreed to the exchange with mit for the center in cambridge.pers to sp mit will construct a new dot facility on a portion of the site and receive title for the remaining side. they indicated the project once completed would provide $750 million in value to themi federal government. the work also identified a number of alternative approacheo to funding the property projects including long-term operating leases, swaps, retaining fees such as user fees and enhanced. in march 2014 we reported that this is the best way to ensure recognition of the commitments made for fiscal control however obtaining this can beating le challenging if we've provided some authorities to usee alternative funding mechanisms for the acquisition, renovation at the disposal of properties without full upfront funding. projects of alternative mechanisms may present risks shared between the agency and partner. some of these allow the private sector to provide the capital as the cost of borrowing which is formally higher than thehe government and in some cases the labor costs or fewer requemts

border china ice to go to school here as exchange student at she wore university which is kind of the mit of china and i went to school the north koreans china's been training north koreans for twenty years to go in there and eventually once the puppet regime falls china has many tree north koreans that will could take over the state in act as a puppet g.o.p. political blocking state against the west so the manchurian candidate in reverse they are exactly. all right but you think that. north korea is instability is increasing and of chorus china is their vassal master the u.s. is within firing range and guam and south korea's real nervous so if north korea drops falls what's the first geopolitical second shoe to drop down. i think you'll see a chinese take over north korea i think there's an oil there i don't think i can see no there possibility plano the interesting thing here is yeah you've got a crazy guy with nuclear weapons but in this situation we don't have man we don't have mutually assured destruction of course we could wipe north north korea off the map but you also wipes ten mi

at mit's that on a hidden camera and c.n.n. doesn't dispute any of that video and says we stand by our producer he's not really involved in that kind of coverage and then van jones is on camera. same organization a project veritas things van jones in the street who is on camera two days before this saying this is awful this is terrible and then he says to the guy on camera unbeknown to that he's on camera this is a nothing burger i mean what credibility how do you trust that name ok richard can you reflect upon that because you know c.n.n. hasn't disputed any of these things here and we asked directly a producer at c.n.n. if this is a real story the russia story the russia gate story and and he said it's b.s. it's simple it's not i mean it's it's very transparent ok and if you c.n.n. wants to explain that is diversity when i you know then they needed communications director to communicate their message here richard please go ahead and i'm sure you disagree that's why you're here go you're. you know what's not in dispute peter w

what about that mit caesar and is this just bluster saying that there's a red line if they go down the road of trying to figure out the family finances of the trump family what about that so much we know is trump bluster that's his old days as a builder in new york it's interesting that a bipartisan bill is winding its way through congress with significant support saying that if a special prosecutor is fired in effect that firing goes before a multiple federal judge panel within days to see through is correct or not and if it's ruled in correct that person stays i think what they're trying to do is put into federal law a lot of protections because even republicans in congress now don't seem to trust donald trump what's interesting is that's also coinciding with all these polls that are coming out today and yesterday showing his support dropping and also showing in the latest quinnipiac poll that sixty two percent of americans do not believe donald trump is honest that's beginning to believe in the republicans so there is a bipartisan bill coming through to in effect protect the special

and birds have been able to recognise and but i see no science is led by scarlet howard at the our mit university in melbourne australia discovered that when they made two platforms one with a number of shapes and one with no shapes they could teach honeybees the concept of zero using sweet and sour taste on the platforms eventually the training saw the bees recognizing the platform with zero shapes eighty percent of the time the team still hasn't figured out why honeybees comprehension of zero is similar to humans and primate but in the meantime tyrrell i think it's safe to say that honeybee brains are not shown yet but clearly they are hopefully we can save the honeybees long enough to learn more about their saying no more than they're letting understanding of zero over we don't. let them die out i was fascinated about is our show for you today remember everyone in this world we are not told we love them up so it's all you all i love you i am tired robot and i'm part of the watching all those hawks out there ever great day. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded tak

in a potentially successful effort in january 2017, gsa agreed to a swap exchange with mit for the dot agent center in cambridge massachusetts. per the agreement mit will construct a new dot facility on a portion of the 14 acre site and will receive title to the remaining sites. gsa indicated that the project once completed, will provide $750 million in value to the federal government. our prior work also identified a number of alternative approaches to funding the property projects including long-term operating leases, user fees and enhance the use leases. then in 2014 we showed that upfront funding is the best way to ensure the conditions and commitments made and to maintain fiscal controls. however obtaining upfront funding can be challenging. congress has provided some agencies with specific authority to use alternative funding mechanisms for the acquisition, renovation or disposal of federal real property without full upfront funding. projects with alternative funding mechanisms may present a risk that are shared between agency and partners. some mechanisms allow the private secto

times and i thought they were grand and majestic to look at but in 2013 i saw a paper by colombian and mitfocusing this thing that you are used to cause one of the worst massive extinctions in history. kind of the big revelation for me and theology is around us and no matter where you are standing if you look up the geological history of the rock you are standing on it's a fascinating story. i caught this bug late in life and i have the zeal of a recent convert to geology. back. >> is it understood what causes the massive volcanic events. >> the there are a few leading theories. it starts to get into a high level of geophysics which is hard to understand the papers that are written on but mantle plumes is the biggest theory that you have this especially hot plastic blob that surges to the service in one of the massive extinctions takes place when pangaea is drifting apart in the cost might have been. that is a lot of debate on why these happened.

on yesterday's program, lilly chin from mit was the only player to come up with the correct responsenal jeopardy! she walked offstage and immediately took a selfie of herself because she gets to come back to play for $100,000 later this week. clarissa, mohan, and viraj, one of you three will be joining her. good luck. here we go. categories are as follows. yeah. and finally... and, viraj, you go first. they named a school for me for $400. it's the school in lexington, virginia, named for the two men seen here. viraj. what is washington and lee? good. school for $600. answer -- daily double. all right. we're finding it way too early. you can risk up to $1,000. i'll do that. okay. here is the clue. what's... rockefeller university?

that is certainly what they're focusing on, and they are driven by this, but he hard had mitted he didile in a timely fashion. reporting his work in ukraine, and he retro actively did so. that is a admission that he broke a federal law. certainly not ep forced with a lot of teeth, but there is that opening for muler and for congressional investigate everies to go after and build a case against paulmanafort. >> we have seen him switch his representation. the president keeps bringing new people on, what's the status of the president's legal team right now. >> they're playing catch up. trying to figure out what is going on so they can react to things quickly, and part of the reason his process has been such a mess, in my understanding from speaking to former federal prosecutors, is that the president just doesn't seem to understand the way that lawyer's work. there is a broad sense in the legal community that the president views lawyers as blunt objects. means to an end. pieces on his chess board that are interchange able, and the result is that the legal team he has is just constantly in
