00:00:07Good evening everyone, you are watching the main news on France 24. The far-right is
00:00:11once again leading a regional election in Germany, the AfD is projected to win in
00:00:15Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. German Chancellor
00:00:18Friedrich Merz, for his part, acknowledges a disaster for his party, the
00:00:21CDU, which failed to enter the regional
00:00:23parliament. Another election in Russia where Vladimir
00:00:27all major technological revolutions, from Putin's party, United Russia, wins the legislative elections without
00:00:31surprise, a vote however disrupted by numerous drone attacks from Ukraine,
00:00:35Moscow promises to intensify its strikes against Kiev in
00:00:38response. Finally, Emmanuel Macron and Canadian
00:00:42Prime Minister Mark Carney in a tête-à-tête in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, the two leaders say
00:00:45they want to strengthen ties between their two countries, two independent
00:00:48nations who want to remain so, they specified, a clear message
00:00:52addressed to Donald
00:00:53Trump.
00:01:08weeks after the victory of the far-right in Saxony
00:01:12Anhalt, the AfD is once again leading in Mecklenburg
00:01:15Western Pomerania, it is also making strong progress in
00:01:19Berlin, a bitter
00:01:22interpretation of what a young girl of failure for the CDU of Chancellor Friedrich Merz who speaks of a catastrophe for his
00:01:25party, Jules
00:01:26Boêteau.
00:01:35extravagant stories: "Let
00:01:52More than four and a half years after the start of
00:02:00govern this region of northeastern Germany, if the AfD finds allies to
00:02:03reach a majority, because just behind are the
00:02:07Social Democrats of the SPD,
00:02:09far, far from the CDU of Fredric
00:02:12Merz. At the announcement of the first results this Sunday
00:02:15evening, all eyes turned
00:02:19hated queen in French to the chancellery as a departure of the German leader in case of a debacle had been envisaged, but
00:02:23exceptionally for a regional election, the Chancellor
00:02:26preferred to cut short the rumors by speaking out.
00:02:30first, to acknowledge a historic defeat.
00:02:34We cannot sugarcoat the result obtained in Mecklenburg, it
00:02:38is a disaster, but reforms must go forward. We
00:02:41take responsibility for these reforms.
00:02:44I personally take this responsibility, because I want
00:02:48to move our country forward. A Chancellor
00:02:51more weakened than ever, but who remains in power while in
00:02:55the other election of the day in Berlin, the CDU was also beaten by
00:02:58the radical left of... Link who could take over the mayoralty in case
00:03:02of an alliance with other left-wing
00:03:03arrival at this Oklahoma probably be one of the first historical figures parties. A vote also marked by the
00:03:07good score of the AfD, which marks a good
00:03:11advance and its best historical result in the
00:03:15access to the Queen's very secret capital. And a sign of the CDU's debacle, Friedrich Merz's party
00:03:19failed to enter the Mecklenburg parliament, it
00:03:22did not manage to reach the elimination threshold of 5
00:03:26%. Emmanuel Macron received the Prime Minister this Sunday.
00:03:30Our Canadian Mark Carney, the meeting took place on the French archipelago of Saint-Pierre
00:03:34and Miquelon located off Canada, and the two men say
00:03:37they want to strengthen ties between their two countries, particularly on issues of
00:03:41security and energy. Jules
00:03:43Boateau:
00:03:46this is an embrace that aims to be highly
00:03:48symbolic. Emmanuel Macron welcomes Marc
00:03:52Carney to Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, a first for a Canadian
00:03:55Prime Minister. The French archipelago in the North
00:03:58Atlantic, a key place in the new cooperation that the two
00:04:02countries want to seal in a context of tension with
00:04:05Washington. This meeting comes a few weeks
00:04:08after these publications by Donald Trump where Canada,
00:04:12Greenland and Saint-Pierre
00:04:15Charles, Lady's and Miquelon were placed under American flag. Yes, we believe
00:04:17together that our countries are two great
00:04:21independent nations and want to remain
00:04:24so. We both believe in democracy,
00:04:27the rule of law, respect for international law. national,
00:04:31respect for free and fair trade,
00:04:35the science on which our decisions
00:04:37rest and the strategic autonomy that we
00:04:40defend. In addition to its symbolic scope, new
00:04:44partnerships have also been announced between France and Canada
00:04:48in the areas of climate, energy and
00:04:51space.
00:04:53We have tasked our space agencies and our defense ministries to develop and share
00:04:57common infrastructures, notably systems.
00:05:01The two leaders also discussed relations between Canada and the European Union
00:05:05as Brussels has paved the way for Ottawa to become the
00:05:09first associate member of the EU.
00:05:12to get closer to Europe, to move away from Donald
00:05:15Trump's United States, that is the message sent before the United
00:05:19Nations General Assembly, this week in New
00:05:21York.
00:05:23In Russia, Vladimir Putin's United Russia party is,
00:05:27not surprisingly, declared the winner of the legislative elections held this
00:05:30weekend, a vote marked by numerous Ukrainian drone attacks
00:05:33and cyberattacks, Jules
00:05:36Boêteau. According to the mayor of Moscow, it is
00:05:39an unprecedented Ukrainian offensive. the Russian capital
00:05:43and its region were targeted by several hundred Ukrainian
00:05:46drones, and if most were intercepted, several
00:05:50escaped Russian anti-aircraft defense and notably struck
00:05:53several floors of a residential building in the capital or
00:05:57this oil refinery. other
00:05:59devices fell in this residential area of Sofino in the Moscow
00:06:03region, causing casualties and significant
00:06:05damage.
00:06:08I was coming out of my building, I had walked about twenty steps from the entrance when...
00:06:21There were injured people, probably even dead, but we can't be sure, the
00:06:25rescuers who arrived on the scene did not let us
00:06:27approach.
00:06:36A series of Russian strikes on more than 36 killed several people on Saturday
00:06:39and Sunday, including children.
00:06:43This offensive also comes on the third and last day of voting in Russia
00:06:47and has been denounced by the authorities as aiming to disrupt the
00:06:50smooth running of the election. In the Kherson region, in
00:06:54southern Ukraine, controlled by Russia, a drone notably
00:06:58killed several people, including an employee of the electoral
00:07:01commission.
00:07:04the large-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, in a
00:07:08context of repression of all forms of opposition, Vladimir
00:07:11Putin's party, not surprisingly, was announced
00:07:14the winner of the election on Sunday
00:07:16evening.
00:07:20This Sunday, September 20, was World Cleanup Day. For several
00:07:23years now in France, hundreds of thousands of people have participated, resulting in
00:07:27hundreds of tons of waste collected.
00:07:30Report from Marseille, Toulouse, and Valenciennes with Noémie
00:07:34Daon. There, perfect. At the end of
00:07:36these tongs, a first cigarette butt to track the...
00:07:40objective: identify
00:08:12"Angeoliver", pieces, it has an litter and fight against river pollution.
00:08:16Very quickly,
00:08:18a piece of waste will
00:08:22release its chemical molecules and degrade in the water. Like this tire
00:08:26salvaged, car parts, we also find
00:08:30some near Marseille in this commercial area. I even found a magnificent
00:08:34IV, it really has everything, you wouldn't necessarily
00:08:38expect it. These young girls woke up early to participate in this
00:08:42big clean-up, maybe it will make people realize that you don't throw cigarette butts
00:08:46on the ground, that there are still bins for
00:08:49cardboard, metal and
00:08:52plastic, we're going to separate everything, because among the waste
00:08:55found, some can be recycled, last
00:08:59year, 434 tons of
00:09:02litter were collected all over
00:09:04France.
00:09:07it's a book that hasn't come out yet, and yet it's already making a lot of noise in the
00:09:11UK, Charles... Spencer, Princess Diana's brother
00:09:14is publishing his memoirs, some excerpts have already appeared in the
00:09:18press. Odyle Longuevalle and Benjamin De Lombre tell us
00:09:21more. There's Charles,
00:09:24the ex-husband, and
00:09:27brother. Two men, one woman,
00:09:31and a phrase that 30 years later, shakes
00:09:34the United Kingdom. It would have been uttered by the king prince
00:09:38at the time, to his brother-in-law during an argument just
00:09:42after Diana's death,
00:09:45he said: "We will soon forget her," and after a stunned silence,
00:09:49I replied, "I can't believe you just said
00:09:52that." A conversation revealed in the
00:09:55memoirs of Diana's brother, a 400-page
00:09:58book intended, according to him, to re-establish the
00:10:01truth about his sister, it provoked a
00:10:04denial as swift as it was unusual from Buckingham
00:10:07Palace. His Majesty is aware that the pain
00:10:10of fraternal grief can obscure reason, alter judgment,
00:10:14and distort memories, and the brother ironized, "It's
00:10:18not every day that you wake up to find that the king has tried to make you out to be someone
00:10:22whose memories are not reliable." exchanges
00:10:25relayed by divided newspapers,
00:10:29"Monstrous" headlines this tabloid, "Why
00:10:32is he doing this to the king now?" asks another, among the
00:10:35British people, each to his own
00:10:37camp, "I think he's just doing this to sell his
00:10:41books, I don't believe what he says,"
00:10:44"King Charles treated Diana so badly, I think he could have said
00:10:48that, I believe her brother." Nearly
00:10:5030 years after her death, Lady D continues to unleash
00:10:54passions. Even before the release of her brother's book,
00:10:57four copies were stolen from a truck in the Netherlands for
00:11:01reasons still unknown.
00:11:04And that's the end of this newscast, thank you for your attention, information continues on
00:11:08France 24, I wish you all an excellent week.
00:23:51He can already greet you upon your
00:23:53hotel or answer your questions in nearly
00:23:5750 languages in this airport lobby, when he's not
00:24:00managing a tech fair
00:24:02booth alone.
00:24:08The one who even makes the headlines on television
00:24:09news
00:24:13was born in these premises in the Bay of San
00:24:15Francisco.
00:24:18At only 23 years old, David is the father of this robot and
00:24:22co-founder of a startup.
00:24:25Can you introduce a bot to our viewers?
00:24:38In 2024, David drops out of his studies at the prestigious
00:24:42Stanford University to develop humanoids, robots
00:24:45designed to imitate
00:24:46humans.
00:24:50a year and a half ago with just one robot, without even knowing exactly what we were going
00:24:53to build, we kept moving forward and deploying our robots in public
00:24:57places to understand how they could integrate into our
00:25:00society. Today, with about twenty
00:25:03employees, he has developed several robots, distinct
00:25:06personalities capable of producing, by analyzing the reactions of their
00:25:10interlocutors, a fluid and
00:25:13personalized conversation.
00:25:20The challenge is not to make this robot talk, it is to
00:25:23enable it to interact with humans naturally in a social
00:25:26context, it must understand social codes and
00:25:30behave like a human being, what you see today is just a
00:25:33beginning, our goal is to create robots with capabilities
00:25:37comparable to those of humans, not only to perform tasks, but
00:25:40also on the social and emotional aspect so that they can
00:25:44accompany us in practically every
00:25:45situation.
00:25:50robots capable of replacing us at work and at home, with
00:25:54the rise of artificial intelligence, a scenario that is increasingly
00:25:57probable. Around the world, some forty companies
00:26:01are working seriously to develop humanoids, and this market could be worth nearly
00:26:0438 billion dollars in 10 years, enough to create a wave of panic in many
00:26:08sectors where these machines could perform most of the tasks
00:26:12currently performed by humans, but for this professor of
00:26:15economic forecasts, one should not draw hasty
00:26:19conclusions. Historically, it would be a complete anomaly if this
00:26:23technological innovation did not eliminate some jobs while creating
00:26:26others. This has happened during
00:26:30the agricultural revolution to the different phases of...
00:26:32the industrial revolution, what is new is that the jobs of tomorrow remain
00:26:36largely unknown and are still speculative. If you asked
00:26:39a farmer 200 years ago what our current professions look like, it would seem
00:26:43totally fantastic and
00:26:44incomprehensible to him.
00:26:47And these new jobs are already
00:26:49emerging.
00:26:53In Los Angeles, Daryl Luddell is a music
00:26:56teacher.
00:27:00To make ends meet, he used to string together odd jobs in his free
00:27:04time, but for the past few weeks, between two
00:27:07classes,
00:27:13the ritual is a bit peculiar,
00:27:17with his phone glued to his head, Daryl will
00:27:20film himself for an hour doing household chores for about twenty
00:27:24dollars, the objective being to produce the data that
00:27:27will be used to train the artificial intelligence of future
00:27:30robots, and for the video to be validated, no room for
00:27:34error.
00:27:36I keep my hands straight so that they remain visible in the
00:27:39image. If, for example, I do this, I'm
00:27:43almost certain they're no longer in the frame. I'm
00:27:47cleaning, but my hands are off-screen. Whereas if I do
00:27:50this, our clients get exactly the images they're looking for. It's quite
00:27:54surreal to find yourself at home in a familiar environment,
00:27:57doing household chores that you would otherwise do for free, but this time
00:28:01while being paid. For me, it's mostly an
00:28:03opportunity.
00:28:06For Instawork, the platform that offers these missions, there is no
00:28:10doubt that the demand for this type of work will
00:28:12explode.
00:28:16The data needs are almost infinite.
00:28:19Specialists estimate that it will take tens, even hundreds of
00:28:23thousands of years of accumulated data to train these
00:28:25systems. So this is not an activity that will last a
00:28:29week, a month, or even a year. I think this
00:28:33market will experience considerable
00:28:34considérable,
00:28:40By 2035, more than a million humanoid robots could
00:28:44be in service worldwide, according to a study by Goldman
00:28:47that promises to profoundly
00:28:50profondeur notre façon de
00:28:52life.
00:30:07Good evening everyone, you are watching the essential on France 24, the far-right
00:30:11again leading a regional election in Germany, the AfD is predicted to win in
00:30:14Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, German Chancellor
00:30:17Friedrich Merz acknowledges a disaster for his party, the
00:30:21CDU, which failed to enter the regional parliament.
00:30:25Another election in Russia where Vladimir Putin's party, United Russia, unsurprisingly
00:30:28won the legislative elections, an election however disrupted by many.
00:30:32drone attacks from Ukraine, Moscow promises
00:30:35to intensify its strikes against Kyiv in
00:30:38Emmanuel Macron and Canadian
00:30:41Prime Minister Marc Carney in a one-on-one in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, the two leaders say they
00:30:45want to strengthen ties between their two countries, two independent nations that
00:30:49wish to remain so, they specified, a clear message
00:30:52addressed to Donald
00:30:53Trump.
