2:30 am
buckle apples and thoughts the often mass of a week of unrest and the french pacific territory of new caledonia. on the ground in the capital new mia. hundreds of a lead security forces and police officers deployed by the government in paris to restore order. they launched a major operation to re take control of a highway linking the city and the international airport. protests began on monday when m. p is in paris, voted to allow the french citizens who lived on the island for 10 years to vote in the local election. as you know, we see electronic brawley's open. we, i will be getting more non citizens, orthodontic or road suite, choose between the number of people here and getting in the country. and that said, critics will erode the voice of parties who have been fighting against french rule
2:31 am
for decades. although several independence referendums held over the years, had failed to show significant support for a break with powers. the indigenous cannot community believes the government's latest proposal will dilute the voice of the island as they have looked at our court law and to refer to be suspended or controlled. so they just haven't taken it to the states since monday night when it went to the last one or somebody balanced . and it seems i would go down without a pen and hit his brass with the police forces on the ground. the territory has a population of about 280040 percent of whom i indigenous conduct. they say the proposed electoral reform undermines them to me see the different stages you flossing. the point is that what do you think you. ready we see that as a kind of recording is ition of our people or the estimated cost of the damage runs
2:32 am
into hundreds of millions of dollars. the trial of destruction includes towards public buildings, businesses and cause and looted shops. supplies of food and medicine are hard to come by, a state of emergency and overnight care if you have been in place since friday and slide sauce suspended. dozens of barricades put up along the 60 kilometers a stretch of road to the airport had been removed. but also already say it's not open yet because debris still needs to be created, which is like you to take several days, like level which is 0. you can find more information on our website that so i'll just come when he's continues here on his hair, off to phyllis thing, the a red band. so one of the world's wherever screeching numbers are plummeting due to
2:33 am
deforestation, coaching and climate change. indian sites are fighting to push it to one of the most important things to control the species is to maintain that habitat one. 0 one east reveals the bottle to save into use with mono. just, we're now 8 months into the war on, gosh, henry is reading narrative that it will there replicate him off is unraveling from with you. plus the coverage of 2 critically important elections. so back from where the state on the news channel is under the gun in india, where artificial intelligence is reeking, happened on the trip this past week vs ray. the military intensified it's assault on both ends of garza, north and south journalist are saying the bombing in the north is worse than anything they have seen since october 7th. at the outset of this genocide, a war israel said it would destroy
2:34 am
a mazda completely the return of its operations in northern garza where the israelis had said they had dismantled, tomas is one more assigned. that is really leaders have overestimated. the capabilities of their own forces and there was disquiet amongst the generals divisions within the ranks. the defense minister has laid into benjamin netanyahu saying the prime minister has some decisions to make on a postwar plan for godsa. across the board or in egypt, there are signals coming out on state controlled media outlets that the authorities in cairo are losing patience with the israeli government. still, this is a war. the vast majority of his writings continue to support and the domestic and media coverage that they are seeing as one sided as it is, is a major reason for the, the intensity of what we are now seeing him, god makes it feel like we have entered some kind of times remember this
2:35 am
from israel's military spokesman, goofy, i'm the, what's a phone? a don't come, he's getting it. that's ational from us. that was 4 months ago in january. then why are the, is released bombing that same area the north of casa again now? because back dismantling never happened. it was propaganda. israel's lack of a coherent military strategy is now being revealed by as really, officials themselves with a career defined developing between the defense minister and the prime minister over what happens when this war ends. the prospect of israel taking over casa and restructuring it, me, but i thought they come on. mr. kennedy pharmacademic, name shots via eve is what i'll face. so i really built a lot of, you know, i'm gonna said that he was entirely opposed to
2:36 am
a military government over the best that and also to a civilian occupation over boswell, making very, very clear the rift between himself. i'm miss m. yahoo. so this is being interpreted as guidelines trying to shed light on the strategic disagreement about the future of the assault me. the growing signs of bonnie's within the is really military 1st surfaced this past week through a series of leaks that appeared to be called the name of some kind of nima and a guy explaining that come out for the bathroom and then your several senior officers criticized benjamin netanyahu for a troubling lack of a post war plan for gods and what size and color involved. sure, the mama, the optional world, a color touch web. the generals did not go on the record,
2:37 am
but by sticking out anonymous and collectively, they put the lack of a plan for the day after front and center. in israel's discussion of the war, one war becomes prolonged and there is no clear exit strategy. military generals often will come together and start a swing statements that reflect a lack of confidence and the wave of government has been administrating the war. and so the, the coordination of generals austin signals, the fear of the military is frustrated with the conduct of the direction of the war . and what's become clear, what the pro long of the war is that there is no clear tactical operational objective or clear exit strategy since the beginning of the war. we've been hearing similar messages of discomfort that there is no strategic plan or angle from retired military officials. that we're seeing it now coming from serving military officials and that it's happening in
2:38 am
a more coordinated manner. really reflects the growing frustration, you know, for it is not a means by itself it's, it's a means of reacting to or creating different realities. and if you don't know what that reality is, then you're sentencing yourself to and was fighting. which email, unfortunately is the past 100 years of, of israel palestine when it comes to his reading media itself. there have been no filters to light them out. don't show much dispute or much was mishal blame, they've made are incredibly inflammatory statements that have indicated somehow in this case, the genocide which is ro now has to answer for me. you've also had is really media, be very sanitized. i mean, the majority of his re, these don't actually realize the she, the extent of destruction and yet, and you have numerous opinion polls showing that the majority of israelis support the continuation of this on so on where you have those that according to the end of
2:39 am
it, it's more to do with the fact that they want that their hostages back rather than the sheer scale of, of, of loss of life that causes are experiencing right now. and we'll continue to experience this really dropping that will have also detected some ominous signs coming out of egypt with which it has had a piece feel invoice. since the camp david agreement in 1978. first, the cc government indicated it would sign up to south africa's genocide case at the international court of justice, which no one saw coming. then there was a call from a prominent egyptian talking here to walk away from the camp david's. and i'm sure the other player and i want have a good animation definitely, but it won't have it set. i'm going to tell you what i ask, what the hell is. and that was followed by an ambiguous morning to objections about what may lie, a head in the gaze,
2:40 am
home for the positive that i did. what i saw that either or is it getting solved. egyptian intelligence agencies maintain a firm grip on the countries. media outlets which suggests the change in messaging is coming from the very top. it has been very um, you know, that very much detail implicated into what has happened since the 7th of october. 5th is really pre on management for the regime time where many have been wanting bodies monitoring, catastrophe and so now, so to me, to, to see egypt now allowing to sort of criticism of the camp david greene within its own state sponsored media. that is a little very indicative of, of, of, of reaching that's trying to say, face. now the government might be using this media and these anchors as a way to accomplish 3 things. now the 1st is that there is increasing frustration
2:41 am
with the needs of some population, but how their government has been treating the situation in gaza signaling and we hear you and we're reflecting your frustration. the 2nd is to the american government, is that the diction government today is increasingly on shore of where it says, given that there have been aspects of the camp david agreement that are on the brink of being violated. and so here is signaling to the us. what are you going to do about it? and the 3rd, it's actually signaling to not 10 yahoo! the frustration within the egyptian government, these relays have taken for granted that the 2 neighbours that it has peace with egypt and jordan, are not big sounds from us. and therefore implicitly supported the goal of getting rid of them. but the fact that egypt joins the i c, j, k. so i'm genocide should be a shock to be as early as i'm not sure that they're prepared to even receive warning. so each months into it's janice side, a war on gosh,
2:42 am
israel is growing more i so politically, but also culture which is really artists, musicians, filmmakers and publishers saying they are being shunned around the world. but rather than provoking a re, a re examination of the strategy, the pressure from the outside seems to be stiffening attitudes and the blame for that will always start with the politicians involved. but the is really mean by letting so much genocide, a language go unchallenged at times, making it their own will never lift this down for you. i've done my own and show you the left here from the media narrative. it is real, is insane. and it's central to public, the thing people think that israel's isolation and the canals isolation is actually going to put pressure on these really public to end is rain. so what we're seeing
2:43 am
on the media is this kind of most saw narrative or sounds and meredith, but it's being pushed that i'm sure we are all alone. wonderful. have a home i was looking for for the side for sure that the actual sure. the middle. okay. and find out when you must be brought to m as in kite. i'm really, i'm really kind, pitiful tom was with all the same for the hotel, surely. so, i mean, that's my, we have no friends. we always have ourselves to rely on nobody's with us. even in the beginning shown today is a degree in mental i believe my not the one on the moon. and that actually kind of creates this heart and show from critique in which any critique becomes perceived as part of this. everyone is our enemy. everyone is against us. one of the major themes of this war has been just parallel realities,
2:44 am
that different groups of people are living in and is really so living in a reality that in which regular gardens almost do not exist. the media is focusing exclusively on victim hood and on the american military narrative of, of what's being accomplished without at all, discussing the costs we go. so how many gosh, this, i'll hop out of this mission of the salad phone. it is, what does it makes them double down which makes it more and more of the next essential issue. and it's a little bit of a feedback loop because they're just simply not being given the language to, to imagine that something can be done differently. but there could be diplomatic solutions, perhaps not killing everybody. is a way of doing things. so for africans are voting this month. and for the 1st time in 30 years, the ruling african national congress party v a n c may fail to win an absolute majority. the parties response to that seems to include meddling with the national
2:45 am
broadcaster, s a b c. mean obviously robbie is here with more b, n c's rise to power to 1994 mocked the end of south africa's apply to data. however, it's on the back foot in the selection with crime unemployment. i'm corruption among the issues in a country where nation in equality means that the ality. so the party has to internal sancha and it's messaging hocking back to the days of nelson mandela. and the amc is central role in ending apartheid. we have restored our pete po's dignity together. one of the key narratives, the n c is backing is about the formation of a possible coalition government. it might be forced to put together. this was an ad put out by the mean opposition group in the democratic alliance or d. image acquired the scene between the agency and filing f, f. m, as whom of function, and then this quantity shift of corruption lives with on the to get twist. the ad had some shock value,
2:46 am
but the public broadcaster icbc was having none of it. i s a b c as it rejected the d h a. d, a said the cdc subjection was the result of an st into fusions. and that story of the amc has control and manipulation of the country's largest. broad costa has dominated popular discussion. it was turbo charged by the fact that last month, the head of a c b. c. news which will show my daughter was summoned by the state security agency to take a polygraph test suspiciously close to the election. what many called a pressure tactic, a desperate if the strange to say once in a time seems to be subjected to this level of the to work and see it has a long history of integrating with the a. c. c. on the former president jacobs, who might join us what you showed a happy news quote to, to people over government failures, things would be less and saudi is under incumbent presidency. the i'm a pull so, but with the elections disclose the icbc is clearly getting squeezed. thanks me off or in the world of politics. optics are everything the way things look can be as
2:47 am
important as the way they really are bending. the truth can be part of the job and artificial intelligence is here to help. the biggest selection process in history is currently underway in india and so called a deep fix, highly realistic, entirely fake a are generated videos and audio are everywhere. voters are seeing celebrities endorsing candidates. they never actually endorsed and dead politicians coming back to life, saying, or doing things they never actually said or did aware of the power of perception, political parties, including prime minister and the rent remote is b, j. p. are jumping on this technology, just wave outs. and it's not just india, because this is an election year for more than half of the world's population. and that has analysts warning that generative ai poses a threat to democracy. but listening posts, johanna who's now on technology that enables politicians to not just make fake
2:48 am
content that looks real, but provides them with an opening to dismiss real content as fake. what i've name is acknowledges me with a for me, but yeah, it is. okay. and there's something you want, whether you want to make this good us to put a star up scientist or us getting input or a murder depends on the paintings. but if it is not able to do it can be will be very disruptive. well, the extent that we can't even imagine vivian dressing jones is known as the indian deed faker. is company produces images, videos and audio that look and sound real quick are entirely safe generated through artificial intelligence. for years don't reserved is a trickery for bollywood swapping the bodies and faces of celebrities for entertainment. but in the lead up to in the general election, he discovered a lucrative, new market politics. we started getting
2:49 am
a lot of requests from political parties and with the agencies part of the funds on more than one digit with from defend parties, particular can be around $50.00 and what unethical request one is to solve the vsoft opening to be done on who some wonder what should be the old that might impact his image. the 2nd thing is to pull the ways cloning also opening the door and making me say something that he has never said that can impact. does it mean? what was once hypothetical, all the sites going to have a big impact on elections, off people going to try and use these in various malicious contexts. is known by that, that, to cool. globally, we've seen a huge increase in the amount of defects being used in political context, specifically to try and disrupt elect or processes or to spread this information. they all doing and they're doing it at scale and not just in india, around the world. dfcs got their start in nor proceed fake non consensual,
2:50 am
sexual imagery posted online, but used as a tool to do but mislead generate survey. i inevitably came crashing into the world of politics. the world's biggest ever election is currently on folding in india with nearly a 1000000000 indians registered to vote. political parties including prime minister and a vendor modi's tech savvy b j. p. are using all the tools in their arsenal to sway voters, including a deep fakes, are used to send personally as messages to indians, even bring deceased politicians back to life. but some sympathetic content is more malicious like fake video of celebrity criticising mode. movie compatibility here. we go with dca talkie post celebrate cody, how many do keywords, even part of the medical, how many vehicles got to go? how many, many like the indian authorities are playing catch up, trying to hunt down those behind the viable, deep face, the,
2:51 am
by the time they catch them. in most cases, the damage has already been done. or we don't know what the true impact could be off of it, and deep fakes and their ability to influence what does it seem to entities. but there was a survey done by a cyber phone calls, mcafee singled with the last 12 months, or was 75 percent of indians had been exposed to the faith content, either by way of audio or video. i think it often works in the interest of political bodies do have degrees owns on what a i does on what the fix to on what misinformation this information and feed me was does so obviously fake re i even manipulation and media has been around for a long time, but what's really different about the intakes and just the realism of the outputs that cannot be generated. and the problem is that the takes don't just make things look real. but it also provides plausible deniability. and the reason that people
2:52 am
could use to doubt whether real things, all right, to dismiss them as fix that problem is known as the liars dividends. the benefit that anyone, including politicians, can get from the existence of deep stakes to be able to cast down to reality and dismiss the inconvenient facts. it creates a kind of homely, skepticism or content, including what is real, can be valued, and that's the visit and the payoff for anyone who's out to this inform you about a lady from boston who told us about odd knew that it has a video and did think that the opening might split, that video, that renewals, or there's no you don't even know if you use what i don't know what he told me. you don't have to create a detailed videos will be denied if we don't do it. the open 10 of these are not on the web post 12, the face of the same person on the same video what it should look like, a new thing. so that one's the opening displayed. so it'd be able to split it more
2:53 am
than that. and you don't really nice that it's not cool that it so do you think we do? so this was very, very clear to politicians in india, generating low quality videos of themselves. so arresting juxtaposed that against potentially authentic video and say, hey, it's on feet. there was a case a couple of months ago, we're in a southern indian politician. said that a lot of his unique audio was fake. and when fact checkers and those that a specialist in the area went back and examined, did they found that box of the order will fix. but parts of the order will actually go offended and i think that's going to be a huge theme going in to 2024, which is an election your fight sometimes referred to. this is almost the kind of epistemic nihilism. if i say to you, okay, well, you need to know that everything that you now see in here could be i generate, it could be fake. but i can't really tell you how to figure out what is real. that
2:54 am
leaves us, they have an impulse. i do think that this is a really tricky moment where awareness of the page is growing. i get, we don't have in place solution approaches, legislative approaches to sort of respond and help people understand back to what they see. as every legislators are struggling to keep pace with the technology last year, the indian government said that it did not intend to regulate ai, 3 months ago, just prior to the election campaign. it changed its mind after a journalist of google's, a software gemini, whether result moody, was a fascist, and the a i both answered yes, gemini justified. it's characterization on the root and parties quote and do nationalist ideology is collect down on defend, and its use of violence against religious minorities, facts, many human rights organizations agree on. but an answer the b j. p co biased and
2:55 am
that's one of the many problems with regulating generative a guy who should decide what's the accurate escal and an ethical, ted combs and, and who should have the responsibility to decide what content needs to be, fly this faith. and when it is, does responsibility of each and everyone is the responsibility of all the interest that i spend is points me to be able to pick next on the meta make, make a and if that is, once we get the all clear does like us and even the waters just and one thing that is escalating your emotions for the next level, you should stop and think about the appreciate it or not, or what still people want to see what they want to see. so if anyone dentist aligning with their preconceived notions, they are not going to victor, what they want to believe that they are going to go it's, it's a big issue. and it's very concerning. concerning noticed in india, but the world over a year when more than half of the globes population in more than 60 countries is
2:56 am
heading to the pools. a all analyst warren, that synthetic content is left on checked, could influence billions of voters and democratic processes. the problem isn't just a i, it's the political context in which this content drives a polarized world in which politicians like the rend remoting from the flames. subdivision jobs may not be somebody that part of the problem. i think when we talk about the i or the fates and we talk about the impact and democratic process is around the world in there, it's a good example to think hard about what's going on there on the ground. you have the prime minister in good standing up and singing out a single community and listening population in india, identifying them as into 3 doors as the eagles potty stacking india and hughes depicted as gods and goddesses trying to protect that space. what is reflecting is
2:57 am
deep societies conflict, and i think a, i wouldn't add one level of complexity to it, but it would be even mr. foss to not accept the fact that the author very, very deep problems. lee. and finally, last week, the new york times published a story about the coverage of gaza. that was more revealing than the paper probably intended the piece focused on alternative new sites, including al jazeera, that are proven popular with younger american audiences these days, including student protest to the article said that all the major news outlets like the new york times and cnn have reported extensively on israel's campaign in gaza. the coverage in the view of student protesters doesn't assign enough blame to israel for palestinian depths. but in that same article, the time says to algebra journalists have died since the start of the war. died of what cancer? one of those journal this summer i will duck was targeted by an is really drone,
2:58 am
not shell. that is the new york times telling its readers what young americans subject to in its reporting and then doing more of it. what's the next time? here at the listening post, interrogate the narrative. there's no question about the united states is effectively complicit the genocide challenge the rhetoric. yeah. think the correct but so in the international community, upfront, only what happens is if you will, scott, a duty and a growth using for p use a code to contribute to improving the lives of thousands of projects except the cost and we strive to ensure it reaches it's deserving recipients, visit the cost on the web presence. and remember, it's a copy revised wells and increases systems caught on red chris
2:59 am
in the next generation in the united states, they're not happy with what is happening in gaza. they're not happy with the u. s. foreign policy and that's why they're trying to make their voices heard. the administrators of each university really have a choice to either escalate and call him police, be confrontational, or to actually listen to what their concerns are. city stream of people being arrested, placed in the zip tie and cups and taken away. many of the purchases we've talked to have said they will continue protesting until their demands are met. climate priority is from one of the most of the bio diverse nations on their own interpreter. if nature does not function, we don't exist exploding solutions to save life as we know it. we work with and
3:00 am
within the cycles of the we not using office resources, we using them again and again. if we never from nature, we have a chance to move forward. i'll just see you as you've seen doing nothing grows for of the search operations continue into the nights officer rescue work has race to find rain in the presence abraham. it raises the following, a helicopter crash in the remote to reach the carry johnston. this is out. is there a lot from the also coming out? oh yeah. what did you get your big gym? i got. 2 nice and the praise pull that for.
