[00:00:14] In the Moroccan city of Fnidek, [00:00:17] experts suggest that outside of a hundreds of people are looking for information about relatives who disappeared during the massive [00:00:20] crossing of the border with the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. Out of [00:00:23] 72 people who crossed the border after false news on social [00:00:27] networks, about 70,000 were returned to... Morocco. About 2,500 migrants remained in Ceuta, [00:00:31] including more than 800 [00:00:34] unaccompanied children. UNICEF warns that the number [00:00:38] of unprotected children on the streets could be significantly higher, and [00:00:41] Brussels announces the strengthening of the external borders of the Union, accelerating [00:00:44] the return of those who are not entitled to asylum, while the authorities in Madrid claim [00:00:48] that the situation is under [00:00:49] control. [00:00:54] We want to go to mainland Spain to work. It's hard to find [00:00:57] a job in Morocco, so we hope to find a job in Spain. [00:01:01] Swimming here was very difficult, at one point I thought I would [00:01:04] drown, some people disappeared while trying [00:01:07] to swim. [00:01:11] When we arrived in Ceuta, there was no one to help us, a bottle of water [00:01:14] cost 22 dollars, a baguette was 16.5 [00:01:18] dollars. We slept in the mountains. I wanted to see things for myself, but a [00:01:22] Moroccan from Ceuta attacked [00:01:24] Players cannot win, and there is a me with a knife. After that attack, I returned. [00:01:25] se. [00:01:34] The rapid development of the El Niño weather system could push about [00:01:37] 50 million people into acute hunger before the end of next year, [00:01:41] warns the World Food Program. This would increase the number of [00:01:44] 225 million people [00:01:47] who are already facing severe food insecurity in [00:01:50] 45 countries. Experts estimate that this year's [00:01:54] El Niño could be the strongest in the last 70 years. [00:01:57] The most severe consequences are expected in Central and South America, in [00:02:01] the Caribbean and South Africa, while drought in Asian countries [00:02:04] could threaten agriculture and cause a [00:02:07] global surge in food prices. Although the UN has secured 80 [00:02:11] million dollars for early action measures, the lack of [00:02:14] funding and data from the field make prevention [00:02:18] a way to engage with the horrors of difficult, and experts appeal to exporting countries not to suspend [00:02:21] food placement on [00:02:22] markets. [00:02:30] US Secretary of Health Robert Kennedy Junior called for new [00:02:34] research into vaccine safety and a review of previous [00:02:37] health messages. [00:02:40] You have been placing nearly all the blame on the [00:02:44] COVID pandemic and the way that the US responded [00:02:48] exaggerating one in to it squarely with Dr. Fauci, but of course, [00:02:51] he worked for President Trump. Does President Trump also deserve some of the [00:02:55] blame? Well, President Trump, as you [00:02:59] recall, to and the [00:03:01] lockdowns, I think [00:03:03] belts, which were not part of the the thing that did the most damage to our country was the [00:03:07] lockdowns. Lockdowns that shut down [00:03:10] 3.5 million businesses in our country with no due [00:03:14] process, no just compensation, all of our churches closed [00:03:18] our schools, and our children are still paying the price for [00:03:21] that, and yet we had the [00:03:24] worst outcome of any country in the world, how [00:03:27] so we have the highest death rate from COVID of any nation on earth. [00:03:31] Well, let me just, let me just say because I've heard you say that before on the death [00:03:35] rate from COVID, um, it's not accurate [00:03:38] because [00:03:41] public health experts say that there is a combination of [00:03:44] factors that went into that, higher rates of chronic illnesses, which I know you [00:03:48] would agree with, gaps to our healthcare system, and misinformation [00:03:51] about vaccines, you just said what I said was inaccurate. What I said [00:03:55] was accurate. We have the highest death rate from [00:03:58] COVID. Why [00:04:04] we had that, [00:04:08] but um, you nobody can tell you, I mean, we [00:04:12] become trendy because of have, as you say, we have the highest chronic disease burden in the world, but Anthony [00:04:16] Fauci was mismanaging the COVID pandemic and was doing it [00:04:20] under the Biden administration. President Trump [00:04:23] wanted to end the lockdowns and in fact, in [00:04:26] Anthony Fauci's diaries, he talks [00:04:29] about how President Trump is calling him every day trying to get him to [00:04:33] reopen the country. Yeah, well, the lockdowns were [00:04:37] done by governors. I mean, certainly Anthony Fauci and the president [00:04:41] had opinions, but the lockdowns were done by governors and largely [00:04:44] because, and largely because, largely [00:04:47] because they were hearing, they were hearing from [00:04:50] hospitals saying that their ICUs were overrun and they needed some help while that [00:04:54] was happening. But that's just not true. You're saying [00:04:58] it's not true? No, they were doing it. [00:05:02] was telling them from the top, you need to lock down. [00:05:05] There were ICUs that were empty all over the country, including in New York [00:05:09] at the height. I'm asking you, I'm going to go [00:05:13] back to what I asked you at the beginning, which is President [00:05:16] Trump, and he was the guy in charge. And [00:05:20] he, you tweeted back in 2024 [00:05:23] that he let bureaucrats like Anthony Fauci [00:05:27] shut down the entire country. [00:05:29] Um, again, he, the president was in charge, the president [00:05:33] was trying to reopen the country when he left, [00:05:37] the country was kept closed for another year, almost a year and a [00:05:40] half after that. Let's talk about how to [00:05:44] prevent the next pandemic, um, because there's a lot of litigating and [00:05:48] relitigating that I don't think uh is really helpful to do with regard to [00:05:52] COVID. And the question is about uh so-called [00:05:56] gain of function, which uh for people who [00:05:59] aren't entirely clear about it, it is, it is a [00:06:02] highly risky research process that includes [00:06:06] manipulating viruses to study how it behaves as it [00:06:09] evolves. Now, what scientists say is that [00:06:12] although it's controversial, it's necessary to prepare [00:06:16] for the next pandemic, to get ahead of it, to figure out what these [00:06:20] viruses can do. Um, what you want to [00:06:24] end this gain of function research? Some scientists [00:06:27] say, isn't it better just to put better guardrails around [00:06:30] it? People have been trying to put guard [00:06:34] rails around it for generations and it hasn't worked, and [00:06:38] clearly COVID-19 pandemic and many other [00:06:41] global... pandemics that we have have come from gain of [00:06:45] function research. The RSV [00:06:48] epidemic that we have that is the biggest killer of kids in this country [00:06:51] today came from these kind of experiments. The [00:06:55] Lyme disease almost certainly came from this kind of [00:06:58] research. So um, [00:07:01] and the scientists who you say are [00:07:04] experts are making the argument that this is necessary for [00:07:08] pandemic response, cannot point to one instance [00:07:12] in history where research that came out of this kind of [00:07:16] experimentation has actually provided [00:07:20] us something [00:07:21] beneficial. [00:07:31] And with this, we conclude today's edition of Global. In the meantime, find the latest [00:07:34] news from around the world on our web portals and social networks. [00:07:38] And we'll see you again tomorrow. [00:08:03] The climate is changing, and so is my role. The weather I have been tracking for [00:08:07] many years is becoming more extreme. Education is now [00:08:10] more important than ever. The information must be verified, [00:08:14] accurate, and the approach close to you, healthy and [00:08:17] modern. It is important that you, dear viewers, get the best [00:08:20] possible picture of the weather, stay up to date. I am Tea Blažević, [00:08:24] watch N1. [00:17:17] This is not a historical photo from a Nazi concentration and [00:17:21] extermination camp. It's AI generated. These kinds [00:17:25] of fakes are a huge problem. Today we'll explain [00:17:28] why and point you to other better digital ways to understand [00:17:31] history, for example, interacting with a Holocaust survivor's [00:17:35] hologram. [00:17:39] These types of AI generated images are a worrying social [00:17:43] media trend. They claim to show camps used by the Nazis to [00:17:46] imprison and murder millions of people, mostly Jews. [00:17:50] Many posting these images seek attention and clicks, but they distort [00:17:54] historical facts and trivialize victim suffering. [00:17:57] Sharing them contributes to the problem, but what are the [00:18:01] consequences of AI being used to fake [00:18:03] history? This AI generated photo [00:18:07] allegedly shows a prisoner in the Auschwitz extermination [00:18:10] camp. And these AI videos are [00:18:14] supposed to show the liberation of prisoners from concentration camps by [00:18:17] the Allied forces. While this AI content is circulating on social [00:18:21] media, it's not actually original footage. Take a closer [00:18:25] look. [00:18:28] The violin only has three [00:18:30] strings. [00:18:33] The prisoner uniform does not resemble the striped [00:18:35] original, and some of the men are wearing [00:18:41] the prison uniform. [00:18:44] Spotting these details requires time and background [00:18:48] knowledge. [00:18:52] As AI generated images and videos are improving, [00:18:55] it's becoming a lot harder to tell fakes apart from [00:18:58] historical footage. AI fakes are creating a misleading [00:19:02] picture of the Holocaust. [00:19:05] I suspect that these images change what we're used to [00:19:08] seeing. The images seem polished. What they [00:19:12] depict is not realistic at all. Fragments of the [00:19:16] camps such as fences or watchtowers are [00:19:19] used, but they don't correspond to historical [00:19:22] reality. But not only the images are [00:19:26] changing, AI fakes also override and devalue the [00:19:29] stories of the victims. [00:19:33] The images of the real people who are emerged in Auschwitz is part of [00:19:37] story and here is something that is [00:19:40] distorting the the historical [00:19:43] authenticity. But then on another level, you can find posts that [00:19:47] not only generate an image, but the image isn't [00:19:50] based any real person. The whole story is AI generated, the [00:19:54] name, the biography, very personal details [00:19:57] that this post right, and everything is [00:20:00] fake. AI generated content presents [00:20:04] fictional stories as seemingly authentic. This makes it [00:20:50] system. By making up these fake [00:20:54] videos, they are continuing the [00:20:58] job of of of the Nazis. Tova [00:21:01] Friedman fights antisemitism and misinformation where it's [00:21:05] often hardest and matters most. I [00:21:09] had no name. My name was [00:21:11] 27,63. [00:21:17] I was... 8 million views on [00:21:21] TikTok. As a toddler, she survived the [00:21:24] Auschwitz extermination camp, the place where the Nazis murdered [00:21:27] around one million people, mostly Jews in the [00:21:30] 1940s. [00:21:35] We stood there naked for a number of hours, [00:21:38] freezing, absolutely freezing. Tova's nephew [00:21:41] Aaron came up with the idea of telling his grandmother's story on [00:21:44] TikTok. I saw so much anti-Semitism and Holocaust [00:21:48] denial and misinformation about the Holocaust on TikTok [00:21:51] specifically. Um, and because I was familiar with the [00:21:54] algorithm, I thought it'd be the best place to start talking about the [00:21:58] Holocaust and sharing the truth, the reality of what the Holocaust [00:22:02] was. Here on the left, everything started with an open call for TikTok [00:22:06] users to ask Tova Friedman questions in [00:22:08] 2021. Comment any questions you would like her to answer. [00:22:12] Over the next couple days, um, we started getting thousands and [00:22:16] thousands of questions, so from then on, we just started trying [00:22:20] to answer as many as possible. Today the [00:22:23] account has more than 500 thousand followers. The videos have [00:22:26] received over 10 million likes from all over the world. [00:22:30] Well, for me, it was the reaching of [00:22:33] teenagers that I couldn't reach any other way. Tick Tock is like, [00:22:37] oh, those kids are out there somewhere, most of them not [00:22:40] Jewish, and they just scroll, and when they stop [00:22:44] and they listen, and not only do they listen, but they [00:22:47] ask questions. To me, it was a very gratifying [00:22:51] way. In addition to likes, however, the TikTok [00:22:55] account is also targeted with hate speech. Aaron Goodman will not [00:22:59] accept that open anti-Semitism is becoming [00:23:01] normalized. It's the hatred and the misinformation that [00:23:05] motivates me to keep doing this work, because it's proof that what [00:23:09] we are doing is important and needs to be done. Tova Friedman not only [00:23:12] uses TikTok to raise awareness, she also gives talks like here in [00:23:16] Berlin. But what happens when there are no survivors [00:23:20] left? Technology helps preserve memories and make [00:23:23] their stories more tangible. This [00:23:26] school class is about to meet a digital representation of a [00:23:30] Holocaust survivor in their VR headsets. They can [00:23:33] ask the hologram of Manfred Goldberg questions. All [00:23:38] a million survivors who had both [00:23:41] parents alive. As a child, Manfred Goldberg was [00:23:45] imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. In virtual [00:23:49] reality, these students can visit the Stutthof concentration [00:23:52] camp that Manfred Goldberg speaks about at Explorer Castle [00:23:56] where he lived. My favorite part was using the VR [00:24:00] headsets and like how we got to see the spaces because it was really cool and a [00:24:03] real victim that has gone through the events obviously that [00:24:06] occurred telling you his real experiences. It's [00:24:10] amazing. Holograms offer a different access to history [00:24:13] than films. What the holograms do is that [00:24:17] they um enable audiences to be very active in the [00:24:21] interaction and so they have to really delve into [00:24:24] themselves to make sense of this encounter. They have [00:24:28] to formulate questions [00:24:31] about the Holocaust that would make sense. They have to show an [00:24:34] interest in another person's life. Years ago, [00:24:38] Manfred Goldberg answered 100 questions about his life for the Testimony [00:24:41] 360 project. When students ask the hologram a question, [00:24:45] the AI selects the most appropriate answer from his [00:24:48] interview. Goldberg has since passed away, but his story [00:24:52] lives on through his hologram, accessible, but never a substitute for [00:24:55] him. Speaking with holograms of survivors can [00:24:59] even be done from home. On the Illinois Holocaust Museum [00:25:03] website, you can either use a chat or voice [00:25:06] messages. [00:25:08] Obviously, they knew who we were, it was the death march. They [00:25:12] saw the rest go by probably. In Germany, [00:25:15] the equivalent is the Holo Voices project. Here you are seeing [00:25:50] people ask questions like, "How much did you weigh on liberation?" And [00:25:54] they probably wouldn't have asked that of a survivor in [00:25:56] person. However, if you don't have [00:26:00] enough knowledge about the Holocaust, you might [00:26:03] not be able to frame questions in such a way that you get meaningful [00:26:07] responses and that can become really frustrating. [00:26:11] Selecting the answers does not mean that it is inventing [00:26:14] anything new. [00:26:17] All answers are original. There's no generative AI behind it that would [00:26:21] invent an answer and potentially risk reproducing something that [00:26:25] isn't actually true. Rather, [00:26:28] this AI searches for the best possible answer to a question, which [00:26:31] is then [00:27:03] some narrative-driven games try to depict the persecution and murder of [00:27:07] Jews in a historically accurate [00:27:09] way. [00:27:11] One example is The Light in the Darkness, which tells the story of a [00:27:15] Jewish family in Nazi-occupied Paris. The historical [00:27:19] content is presented primarily through texts and documents rather than game [00:27:23] mechanics and algorithms. [00:27:26] reason for that. [00:27:30] By putting the Holocaust in the game and having even this concept [00:27:34] of winning or losing, we could say, we could victim- [00:27:38] blame. We could say why did this person do this and [00:27:42] not that, and that is why he didn't survive. What [00:27:45] do you want to know? Some games address this by not putting [00:27:49] players in the role of victims, but by looking back at past events [00:27:53] instead. In The Darkest Files, [00:27:56] players take on the role of a prosecutor during the [00:27:59] Frankfurt Auschwitz trials in the 1960s, investigating [00:28:03] crimes committed in the Nazi [00:28:05] era. [00:28:10] In The Red Line, a detective pursues war criminals who were [00:28:13] able to flee after the end of World War II thanks to secret [00:28:16] networks. Both games find [00:28:20] the past without forcing players to actually relive [00:28:23] them. [00:28:27] There is no way of changing the past, so we're [00:28:31] gonna put the... the these events already in the past of the [00:28:35] in-game time and therefore we can't mess with it, we [00:28:39] can't change it, we can't blame the victims because it already [00:28:42] happened. as the last living witnesses pass [00:28:46] away, direct access to their memories will disappear. in [00:28:49] games, however, the stories can continue to be conveyed in a personal [00:28:53] and immersive [00:28:54] way. [00:28:57] gaming is bigger in terms of profit [00:29:01] more than movie. and music combined together, [00:29:05] if our goal is to continue with [00:29:08] the holocaust memory and with the remembrance for the next [00:29:11] generations, it's not that we have to use this [00:29:15] tool, is that if we are not using it, we are overlooking [00:29:19] something that's that has so much potential, the key [00:29:22] is that information is reliable and presented [00:29:26] responsibly, games, tik toks or digital holograms can [00:29:29] keep the memory of the holocaus alive and [00:29:48] And I don't think waving flags is my job, [00:29:51] nor is it to please everyone. My [00:29:54] job is to convey the facts and tell the truth, however [00:29:58] uncomfortable it may sometimes be to hear, because journalism is not [00:30:01] PR. It is not politicking, it is not [00:30:05] a reality show. Journalism is a public [00:30:07] service, because to give up asking [00:30:11] difficult, uncomfortable questions, seeking difficult answers [00:30:14] means giving up on democracy. In a time [00:30:17] of shaken trust in institutions and [00:30:20] fragile credibility, journalism must not [00:30:24] be silent. I am Hrvoje Krešić and watch me on N1 [00:30:27] Television.
