[00:00:00] not as far as we understand registered, but there's time until the fourth, as you said
[00:00:03] in Bosnia and Herzegovina, uh talks with voters,
[00:00:07] dialogue, how do you think things stand there, I don't see that there are
[00:00:10] many door-to-door
[00:00:13] visits, as they say, or correct me if politicians
[00:00:17] go on such tours as, for example, this one in
[00:00:19] Serbia now,
[00:00:22] well, it mostly boils down to this short campaign that lasts, behold,
[00:00:25] a month before uh before the election itself,
[00:00:29] the fourth. of October, uh, one would
[00:00:32] say that the campaign, the pre-election campaign itself is quite
[00:00:35] conventional, however, there are some attempts
[00:00:39] that first of all candidates for presidency members
[00:00:41] this come out among voters, organize
[00:00:45] walks with citizens, openly talk,
[00:00:49] set up these info desks, this and
[00:00:52] in such a way they try to establish communication with the
[00:00:55] citizens themselves, however, I don't believe that
[00:00:59] those techniques themselves. in some way can achieve
[00:01:02] some significant political changes that are very important to us
[00:01:06] and now that I listen to this presentation of my colleague
[00:01:09] from Serbia, but also my colleague from Croatia, I actually see that
[00:01:13] we all have equal problems, that we have parties that have become
[00:01:17] dominant political parties, and that is not
[00:01:20] good when it happens in some transitional and post-socialist countries, because such
[00:01:23] dominant political parties such as
[00:01:26] the progressives in Serbia or HDZ in Croatia who have been ruling for
[00:01:30] over 15 years or, I don't know, SNSD and HDZ who in Bosnia and
[00:01:34] Herzegovina have been ruling for over 15 years at different levels of
[00:01:37] government, when such parties stay in power for a long time
[00:01:41] in transitional countries, they do not produce democratic implications and
[00:01:44] stability of power as, for example, was the case during
[00:01:47] Merkel's mandate, so she connected four mandates in
[00:01:51] a large coalition, but in post-socialist countries, actually,
[00:01:54] long stays in power deepen various forms of
[00:01:58] political corruption, uh, "media freedom is reduced,
[00:02:01] judicial freedom, opposition is suppressed, and so on. So,
[00:02:05] I hope that we will actually get some real political changes in Bosnia
[00:02:08] and Herzegovina, as well as in Serbia, uh,
[00:02:12] in Croatia, you yourself said, in 19 months. It would be best if power in our
[00:02:15] countries changed after every election, then that
[00:02:19] kind of political alienation, that kind of alienation of political
[00:02:23] elites, who, when they connect
[00:02:26] multiple mandates, then, believe me, they truly forget the citizens, their real needs.
[00:02:30] Then the citizens are left with nothing but to become politically passive
[00:02:33] or to gather in these non-institutional forms of politics
[00:02:37] that I complement, such as the student protests in
[00:02:41] Serbia. By the way, I think the future is in these forms
[00:02:44] of organization, where the citizenry will be increasingly dissatisfied in different countries, not only
[00:02:48] in post-socialist countries, but also in developed democracies, and that they
[00:02:51] will actually enter the sphere of political organization from this non-institutional sphere.
[00:02:55] Just please allow me, don't forget that we had
[00:02:58] such a form of non-institutional political organization in Slovenia about
[00:03:02] 15 years ago, when in 2014, it seems to me, these
[00:03:05] big protests happened in the north of Slovenia in Maribor, Velenje. Then this
[00:03:09] student group led by Luka Mesec and Professor
[00:03:13] Franc Trček formed the Left party, which in its first mandate,
[00:03:17] it seems to me, won 12 parliamentary seats, in the first
[00:03:20] elections when it joined, it won 12 parliamentary seats. I sincerely
[00:03:24] hope that the student movement in Serbia can achieve a good result
[00:03:28] and even become a part of the government with its partners.
[00:03:31] Uh, we are almost at the end of the show, I just wanted to
[00:03:35] is starting to pay people for small amounts of briefly ask you, do you think
[00:03:37] the Pearl River, these elections for the presidency are the most important? Can there be the most turbulence or
[00:03:40] some changes there, or do you think not? Well, look, those
[00:03:43] elections for the presidency are more or less, if we look at the real political
[00:03:47] reality, symbolically significant, and
[00:03:50] the most important thing is who will have the largest number of mandates in the legislative institutions of
[00:03:54] power, in the representative houses. So at the entity
[00:03:57] level, i.e., this state level of government, because due to the type of political
[00:04:01] system, it is clear that the government is much more important in performing daily political
[00:04:05] affairs, but I say, the presidency has that
[00:04:08] symbolic power. I hope that we can get some new
[00:04:12] candidates from the opposition, here with this newly
[00:04:16] formed Croatian [party], I'm rushing you a bit, sorry, we're at the end.
[00:04:20] Mr. Macan, as an expert, is dialogue important, desirable, always
[00:04:23] necessary? To conclude, as my colleague said,
[00:04:27] it depends on the circumstances. So sometimes
[00:04:30] increasing climate change and that dialogue can be purely a trick, so
[00:04:34] that some form is satisfied, to say, "we
[00:04:37] tried but we didn't want to," to be used for an attack, as we see when
[00:04:41] the tabloids used the refusal of some
[00:04:44] match that was perhaps not fully defined or how
[00:04:48] defined. Because, as you say, if there's a duel on N1, but what about
[00:04:51] for example a duel on RTS? What are the rules if it were there, why would there be
[00:04:54] a refusal of a duel if it happened? It's not yet. In Croatia, they went
[00:04:58] to duels, right? It wasn't like this, and they were very watched. They were
[00:05:01] the entire world population in also usually on national televisions three times most often,
[00:05:05] and that was a format where people
[00:05:08] really watch. Maybe first, they mostly watch first. You can
[00:05:11] already see there simply where things are going. That's
[00:05:15] a good thing when you have established rules. So here, our
[00:05:18] rules are quite established. There are challenges, but if
[00:05:21] you don't have rules, then sometimes it's better to enter a match where you don't know how
[00:05:25] you'll be beaten up. And you say dialogue, dialogue with
[00:05:29] citizens. I say, Mayor's formula was to go to the field, and
[00:05:32] that's probably why the student list copies him. He went to the field, talked to
[00:05:36] people, bypassed the media, so he raised it through
[00:05:39] the field and social networks. That's the advantage of young people, because this
[00:05:43] is a huge capacity of young people for changes through
[00:05:46] social networks, when exposure is very important in that case. Of course,
[00:05:50] I have to conclude the show. Thank you very much for being guests of tonight's show. Thank
[00:05:53] you for watching us. The elections are soon in both countries, in Bosnia and
[00:05:57] Herzegovina and Serbia. Probably the most important thing is that they pass peacefully
[00:06:01] and that those election nights pass peacefully as
[00:06:04] election days. Thank you once again, stay with us. See you next Friday at the same time.
[00:06:08] Boycotts and protests followed Netanyahu's speech. He called
[00:06:12] accusations of genocide lies.
[00:07:02] Iranian President Pezeškan said that Tehran does not
[00:07:05] want war with America. "If we didn't get along better," says Trump
[00:07:09] after meeting with Jinping. The Nepalese Prime Minister
[00:07:12] at the UN requested non-refundable aid for reconstruction after
[00:07:16] catastrophic floods. Pope Leo XIV arrived for
[00:07:19] a multi-day visit to France. Welcome to
[00:07:22] Global. The speech of
[00:07:25] Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu before the UN General Assembly
[00:07:27] was marked by
[00:07:34] a massive boycott of diplomats who left the hall while
[00:07:38] on the streets of New York there were protests with
[00:07:41] hundreds arrested. Netanyahu called the accusations of genocide
[00:07:45] the biggest lie of the century, attacking the Turkish president and
[00:07:48] the New York mayor, and from Mamdani
[00:07:52] he soon received a response that
[00:07:55] no speech can erase the order of the International
[00:07:58] Criminal Court for his arrest for war crimes,
[00:08:02] and while the Israeli prime minister rejects the accusations, the Irish prime minister
[00:08:05] warns that the world has failed the Palestinian people,
[00:08:08] pointing to the expansion of illegal settlements in the occupied West
[00:08:12] Bank. The UN warns of a catastrophe in Gaza where
[00:08:16] 90% of the infrastructure has been destroyed, while the number of killed Palestinians
[00:08:20] has exceeded
[00:08:20] 73.
[00:08:29] 1 million polio vaccinations to the enemy's
[00:08:31] population,
[00:08:35] what genocidal regime enables the distribution of 2 million
[00:08:38] tons of food into Gaza? That's a ton for every
[00:08:42] person. "accusing Israel of
[00:08:45] genocide is the greatest lie of the century.
[00:08:49] we've taken innumerable steps to protect the civilian
[00:08:52] population. is this
[00:08:55] genocide? of course not. it's the
[00:08:58] opposite of genocide.
[00:09:01] so to all those are spreading these lies about my country
[00:09:04] and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this
[00:09:08] hall or in the office of the anti-semitic
[00:09:11] mayor of New York, I say this:
[00:09:15] shame on you, shame on you for distorting the
[00:09:19] facts, shame on you for inverting victim and
[00:09:22] aggressor, shame on you for spitting in
[00:09:26] the face of truth, here's a simple truth,
[00:09:29] Israel didn't commit genocide, Israel prevented
[00:09:32] genocide,
[00:09:40] the Iranian president." told Fox News that Iran does not want war
[00:09:44] with the US and remains ready to reach a peace
[00:09:47] agreement. He said that Tehran will respect international
[00:09:51] law and the agreement on the proliferation of nuclear weapons, but
[00:09:54] emphasized that the Houthis act independently and that Iran manages
[00:09:57] their actions. At the same time, British Foreign Secretary Ed
[00:10:01] Miliband met his Iranian counterpart, Araghchi, in New York,
[00:10:04] demanding the immediate release of two arrested British citizens
[00:10:09] and the unblocking of the Strait of Hormuz. And while diplomatic
[00:10:12] negotiations are contributing to a drop in oil prices on the global market, Colombia has
[00:10:16] officially severed diplomatic ties with Iran, citing
[00:10:20] security risks and the blockade of key maritime
[00:10:23] routes.
[00:11:55] "a lot of people have issues, they want to challenge policies or
[00:11:58] implementations of policies, we sit and discuss and reach a
[00:12:02] mutually agreeable conclusion.
[00:12:06] we will keep resisting until the very end. yes, we
[00:12:09] do have economic issues, certainly, but in order to
[00:12:13] remain, we will go through any hardship and
[00:12:16] endure.
[00:12:23] American president." his Chinese counterpart at the White House.
[00:12:27] The meeting concluded with messages of stabilizing relations and
[00:12:30] cooperation in the areas of trade, security, artificial intelligence.
[00:12:34] Both leaders emphasized the need for better communication and peaceful
[00:12:37] resolution of disagreements, and Beijing also announced the sending of two
[00:12:41] pandas to the US as a symbol of friendship. During closed-door talks,
[00:12:44] Xi called on Washington and Tehran to return to dialogue
[00:12:48] to end the war in Iran. He also appealed to the US to
[00:12:52] cautiously approach the issue of Taiwan.
[00:13:26] fully capable of mutual success, we
[00:13:29] should demonstrate the responsibility of a great power,
[00:13:33] and explore a new path for great powers to
[00:13:37] coexist correctly. of a new era.
[00:13:40] As the leaders of our two nations, President, she and I,
[00:13:44] both understand that we represent different systems, but
[00:13:48] the ties between our people endure, and
[00:13:51] we've never got a long'. better, since the
[00:13:55] first trade ships from New York, left the
[00:13:59] harbor to arrive on the banks of
[00:14:02] Americans and Chinese have always exchanged goods, knowledge,
[00:14:05] customs and ideas. This has been the foundation of
[00:14:09] commerce and mutual respect between our countries,
[00:14:12] and together we can continue to build a relationship
[00:14:16] that promotes prosperity and security for
[00:14:19] future generations.
[00:14:22] The Prime Minister of Nepal, Balendra
[00:14:29] Shah, called on the speakers of the UN General Assembly and the
[00:14:33] international community to finance the country's reconstruction with
[00:14:36] grants, not new debts. At least
[00:14:39] 1450 dead, over 6000 missing and
[00:14:43] damage that could reach 10% of GDP,
[00:14:46] these are the consequences of catastrophic floods for which Nepal is seeking
[00:14:50] world aid. Shah called this catastrophe a warning of
[00:14:55] called on Nepal, India and China to establish a joint
[00:14:59] early warning monitoring
[00:15:00] system.
[00:15:05] Havok on both sides of Nepal China border, the flood continued
[00:15:08] downstream to the India. This tells of us something
[00:15:12] fundamental: climate change does not recognize borders,
[00:15:16] glaciers and floods do not travel with stamps and
[00:15:19] passports.
[00:15:27] Pope Leo XIV began a three-day visit to France.
[00:15:30] After being welcomed at the airport and meeting with President Macron, the Pope
[00:15:34] will lead a prayer in Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and address
[00:15:38] where he will call for the regulation of artificial intelligence. During the visit,
[00:15:42] he will meet with victims of sexual abuse in
[00:15:45] Lourdes, while on Saturday he will lead mass before 600 thousand
[00:15:48] believers. In an interview with journalists on the flight from Rome, the Pope emphasized
[00:15:52] the importance of media freedom, referring to the controversial decision of the White
[00:15:55] House to ban journalists from certain networks from accessing, which was
[00:15:59] in the meantime overturned in
[00:16:00] court.

[00:16:59] why do Croats most often ask artificial
[00:17:02] intelligence about jobs, travel, or their own
[00:17:05] health? A new national survey reveals how much AI
[00:17:09] is already changing our decisions, what we fear, and where we draw
[00:17:13] the line. Have we gained the most powerful assistant
[00:17:16] or are we already giving too much away? N1

[00:17:37] They are the creators of our digital space, a picture of a civilization that
[00:17:40] is yet to come, they are geeks, YouTubers,
[00:17:44] influencers and Facebook stars. I am Dragan
[00:17:47] Petric, the most interesting people from the internet will be my guests on Theradar
[00:17:51] every Sunday on N1
[00:17:52] television.
[00:17:56] AI is changing the rules of the game, or has it already changed them? In AI
[00:17:59] Central Point, we discover innovations that push boundaries,
[00:18:03] from smart algorithms to technologies that are already shaping
[00:18:06] our future. Who is leading the race, who is lagging behind, and
[00:18:10] what does that mean for humanity? Don't miss
[00:18:13] AI Central Point, the place where the future begins,
[00:18:17] Thursdays at 8 PM, only on N1 Television.
[00:19:17] The AI revolution is here, but along with incredible opportunities
[00:19:21] come new risks, criminals using AI to scam victims out of hundreds
[00:19:25] of thousands of dollars, data centers consuming vast amounts of energy and
[00:19:28] water, and intelligence agencies warning that advanced AI
[00:19:32] could supercharge cyber attacks, so how worried should we be and
[00:19:36] who should be held accountable? Let's get into
[00:19:38] it.
[00:19:41] Think you'd never fall for an online scam? Well, it can happen to
[00:19:44] anyone. This businessman lost $400,00 to an AI
[00:19:48] driven crypto scam. I still wake up occasionally in the middle of the
[00:19:52] night with anxiety where it just all of sudden hits me. AI
[00:19:56] assisted scams are a steep rise according to crime researchers and
[00:19:59] the FBI. Criminal networks use AI to work across borders
[00:20:03] and languages, reaching more victims than ever before. Here's
[00:20:07] what you can learn from Chris's story? I
[00:20:10] met Eliza through Facebook. um
[00:20:12] November 2024,
[00:20:16] um, I got a friend request. They began talking, eventually
[00:20:20] Eliza brought up crypto investments and how much money she made with
[00:20:23] it. They even had a video call. Eliza looked real. Chris decided
[00:20:27] to invest. This was a way for me to grow
[00:20:30] my retirement fund. I had no
[00:20:33] plans to stay in it for very long. The platform showed steady.
[00:20:37] profits, everything seemed legit until Chris mentioned it to a
[00:20:41] friend. I have this friend she's a bank manager, she said, what are you doing,
[00:20:44] Chris? I said, it's part of my investment, she goes, what are you
[00:20:48] investing in? She said,
[00:20:52] You were scammed. The investment platform was fake, the
[00:20:56] profits were fake and Chris still doesn't know whether he was talking
[00:21:00] to a person or an AI. There were real people involved,
[00:21:03] however, one time a man physically came to Chris's house to collect cash in
[00:21:07] person. Minutes later, the cash showed up in his investment account. When Chris
[00:21:10] realized he had been scammed, he sent dorble camera footage to law
[00:21:14] enforcement, but so far no luck catching the man. I was planning to
[00:21:17] retire in like another three or four years.
[00:21:21] that unless something changes, that's not going to happen, which
[00:21:25] is, to say it's discouraging, is probably a gross
[00:21:28] understatement.
[00:21:31] This isn't an isolated case, scammers around the world use the same
[00:21:35] playbook, create fake identity, build trust, convince
[00:21:38] someone to invest, then disappear. There are entire
[00:21:42] scam factories, often based in Southeast Asia, they are known to force
[00:21:46] human traffic victims to work in teams to scam people
[00:21:49] worldwide. It's estimate that hundreds of thousands of traffic
[00:21:52] victims are involved in such operations and technology
[00:21:56] is supercharging this. AI can
[00:21:58] help criminals write convincing messages in many languages, it can create
[00:22:02] realistic images, it can clone voices and it makes fake
[00:22:06] identities much harder to detect. As large language
[00:22:09] models for example have gotten better and better, you're suddenly
[00:22:13] globalizing the audience you can communicate with. Some scam
[00:22:16] factories use specialized software that incorporates leading. models
[00:22:20] to automate and scale their operations. A recent
[00:22:23] investigation found Open Ai chat GPT and Google's Gemini
[00:22:27] to be the most used tools, but models from Europe and China were also
[00:22:30] used. Internet access is another key part of the operation.
[00:22:34] Starlink is the number one internet service provider in Myanmar where many
[00:22:38] scam factories are based. Stark like is way these compounds continued
[00:22:42] to connect to the internet and the way that they get around all the other restrictions
[00:22:46] that are put in place. That raises the question of who carries responsibility here.
[00:22:50] is big tech to blame? most technology companies have guidelines
[00:22:54] that forbid criminal use of their products, but they also argue that
[00:22:57] monitoring all user activity would raise privacy concerns. some
[00:23:01] companies have taken action. starling says it has disabled thousands of
[00:23:05] internet terminals linked to scam compounds. yet investigators
[00:23:08] say new sites continue to emerge using starling again. critics
[00:23:12] argue that AI companies and internet providers have the technical
[00:23:15] ability to do more but lack regulatory pressure. the united
[00:23:19] kingdom, the... European Union, Australia and Singapore have
[00:23:22] introduced rules that require companies to better prevent online
[00:23:26] scams, but regulation takes time. So what can you do
[00:23:29] right now? If someone you meet online starts talking about investments, be
[00:23:33] careful, if they pressure you to move money quickly, that's a major red
[00:23:37] flag. Use reverse image search to check profile
[00:23:40] photos, never invest through a link sent by someone you've only met
[00:23:44] online. Search independently before sending any money,
[00:23:47] and if something feels off, trust that feeling. you can even paste your chat
[00:23:51] into an AI tool and ask if it looks like a scam. if you suspect you're
[00:23:55] being scammed, stop sending money immediately, save messages
[00:23:58] and take screenshots of payments. report the scam even if you
[00:24:02] might not get your money back, you could prevent others from fording for the same
[00:24:05] scam. because as AI continues evolve, your best defense isn't just
[00:24:09] better technology, it's knowing how these scams really work. stay
[00:24:13] safe.
[00:24:16] what if your next electricity bill came with a reward for using less power?
[00:24:20] so data center can use more. techgiant google
[00:24:25] their unused energy from household appliancess and evs for
[00:24:28] example. the idea turn millions of everyday devices into a virtual
[00:24:32] power plant for data centers. sounds
[00:24:35] crazy, well, as ai use is exploding, data centers need huge
[00:24:39] amounts of electricity. they leave a massive environmental footprint because of
[00:24:42] carbon emissions and extensive water use for cooling. regions in Asia
[00:24:46] and latin america are seeing data center boom. they can bring
[00:24:50] jobs and investment, but also strain power supply and increase
[00:24:54] water and energy costs. so communities are asking, how do we
[00:24:57] balance the benefits and the downsides? let's break it
[00:25:00] down. data centers use enormous amounts of
[00:25:03] electricity, some of the biggest ones can consume as much
[00:25:07] power as around 50,00 homes together, and for people living
[00:25:10] nearby that could affect energy supply. take Mumbai for example,
[00:25:14] experts say the data centers could use one third of the city's electricity by
[00:25:18] 2030. one idea we've already teased: virtual
[00:25:22] power plants or VPPs. The concept is simple: rather than
[00:25:25] one big power source, a VPP connects thousands of smaller ones, home
[00:25:29] batteries, EV charges, rooflop solar systems. People get
[00:25:33] paid to share that energy, helping ease pressure on the grid.
[00:25:37] Data centers use large amounts of water, mainly to cool their service.
[00:25:40] According to a recent United Nations report, data centers could consume over
[00:25:44] 9 trillion liters of water every year by 2030. That's roughly
[00:25:48] equivalent to the drinking water.
[00:25:51] a year. In some regions like Latin America, growing demand is
[00:25:55] causing tension. Residents are worried about water use during droughts. In
[00:25:59] Uruguay, for example, mass protest broke out after. a Google
[00:26:03] Data Center was proposed during the country's worst drought in 70
[00:26:06] years. A similar fight played out in Chile, one of the most drout-prone
[00:26:10] countries in Latin America. In Santiagoo serious district, a
[00:26:13] proposed Google data center was projected to use 7.6
[00:26:17] million liters of water a day, which is about as much water as the
[00:26:20] surrounding community uses in year. So what if the cooling
[00:26:23] water didn't have to come from rivers or groundwater? One idea put
[00:26:27] data centers in the ocean. China has recently launched an underwater
[00:26:31] data center. 10 kms off the coast of
[00:26:34] Shanghai, it sits 10 meters below the surface. the cooling
[00:26:38] happens naturally there, but some worry that
[00:26:40] projects like these would disturb marine ecosystems. data
[00:26:44] centers don't just consume resources, they also occupy
[00:26:47] land. some feo whole communities could be
[00:26:49] displaced. it's already happening in India where local farmers
[00:26:53] refuse to give up their land for a google data center. so to
[00:26:57] avoid putting any more stress on the planet, some are looking beyond
[00:27:00] earth. researchers in Singapore have put propos a system where satellites in low
[00:27:04] earth orbit could act like data centers, sharing computing power,
[00:27:08] storage and network traffic. to have data centers in space offers
[00:27:11] two big advantages, almost unlimited solar energy and natural
[00:27:15] cooling from the extreme cold of space. Europe's ascen
[00:27:18] project, UAE's Madari Space and China are already testing
[00:27:22] prototypes, but there are some problems: cost,
[00:27:25] difficult maintenance or space diby to name few. In the end,
[00:27:29] feelings are mixed. In some places, data centers were...
[00:27:32] welcomed, like in the US state of Virginia, where they supported over
[00:27:36] $75,000 jobs across the state and generated more than
[00:27:39] $1.6 billion dollars in tax revenue in 2023, but
[00:27:42] over time the public there turned against them. bottom line, data centers bring
[00:27:46] jobs, innovation and growth, but also noise, pressure on resources
[00:27:50] and environmental concerns, and while the
[00:27:53] benefits might be global, the impact is felt most strongly at the
[00:27:57] local level. so what do you think, is it fair trade-off? what's your
[00:28:00] take on this? let us know.
[00:28:04] Imagine waking up, your bank account locked, the power grid completely
[00:28:08] down, government websites suddenly switched off, an entire
[00:28:11] country's critical infrastructure crippled in seconds, not by an
[00:28:15] army of human hackers, but by a single AI model, sounds like
[00:28:19] sci-fi, right, but according to rare an urgent warning from the Five Eyes
[00:28:22] intelligence alliance, a scenario like this is only a few months
[00:28:26] away. The joint statement of five country security agencies says that
[00:28:29] AI accelerates the speed, scale and... sophistication of cyber
[00:28:33] threats and urges global leaders to act right now. What's
[00:28:37] more, this initiative took place in June, only days after the Trump
[00:28:40] administration officially blocked foreign nationals from accessing
[00:28:44] Anthropic's Mythis and Fable models. Is the global AI
[00:28:47] race playing out as a cyber weapons arms race? Let's
[00:28:51] dive in. The Five Eyes alliance issued a blanket
[00:28:54] warning about the dangers of so-called frontier AI models. But right
[00:28:58] now, Anthropic's newest tech is taking center stage. In very
[00:29:01] simple terms, standard AI can code and fix
[00:29:04] bugs. Frontier models like Mythis can scan code,
[00:29:08] find flaws, and then plan, test, and launch a full cyber
[00:29:11] attack. Previously, targeted zero-day exploits
[00:29:15] could only be executed by advanced attackers. That means detecting
[00:29:19] deeply hidden software vulnerabilities that the creators don't
[00:29:22] even know exist. Now, anyone with an internet connection and access
[00:29:26] to a capable frontier model could theoretically do that. This
[00:29:29] drastically accelerates the speed and scale of cyber warfare.
[00:29:32] For this reason, Anthropic had kept its most powerful
[00:29:36] frontier model, Cloud Mythis 5, restricted to select
[00:29:39] corporations to help strengthen cyber defenses. Its hacking
[00:29:43] capabilities were deemed too dangerous for public use. Cloud
[00:29:46] Fable 5 was supposed to be the safe public version with built-in guard
[00:29:50] rails. But the Trump administration didn't agree. They expressed concerns
[00:29:53] over a potential security flaw, citing a jailbreak that allowed
[00:29:57] users to bypass the AI safeguards. US authorities
[00:30:01] claimed there was an unacceptable risk of these models being diverted
[00:30:04] into military intelligence and used by foreign adversaries.
[00:30:08] So they banned access to both models for all foreign nationals
[00:30:12] overnight in a move strongly criticized by developers and
[00:30:14] experts. Following negotiations,
[00:30:18] Anthropic officially redeployed and restored Cloud Fable 5 on July
[00:30:22] 1st. But what were the global implications of the short-lived
[00:30:25] ban? Global fallout was massive. By pulling the plug
[00:30:28] overnight, Washington didn't just hold back a piece of software, they shattered global
[00:30:32] trust in American tech. Many leaders believed that powerful models like
[00:30:36] Fable could help patch their own cybersecurity to avoid doomsday
[00:30:39] scenarios like the one we talked about in the beginning. But if the Trump
[00:30:43] administration can just cut off anyone, even an ally like
[00:30:46] Australia, which had just signed a major national AI deal with
[00:30:49] Anthropic, what's stopping them from blocking access to other crucial software? If
[00:30:53] tech hubs across Europe, Asia, and Latin America realize they can't
[00:30:57] rely on American platforms, they will in...
