00:00:00not as far as we understand registered, but there's time until the fourth, as you said
00:00:03in Bosnia and Herzegovina, uh talks with voters,
00:00:07dialogue, how do you think things stand there, I don't see that there are
00:00:10many door-to-door
00:00:13visits, as they say, or correct me if politicians
00:00:17go on such tours as, for example, this one in
00:00:19Serbia now,
00:00:22well, it mostly boils down to this short campaign that lasts, behold,
00:00:25a month before uh before the election itself,
00:00:29the fourth. of October, uh, one would
00:00:32say that the campaign, the pre-election campaign itself is quite
00:00:35conventional, however, there are some attempts
00:00:39that first of all candidates for presidency members
00:00:41this come out among voters, organize
00:00:45walks with citizens, openly talk,
00:00:49set up these info desks, this and
00:00:52in such a way they try to establish communication with the
00:00:55citizens themselves, however, I don't believe that
00:00:59those techniques themselves. in some way can achieve
00:01:02some significant political changes that are very important to us
00:01:06and now that I listen to this presentation of my colleague
00:01:09from Serbia, but also my colleague from Croatia, I actually see that
00:01:13we all have equal problems, that we have parties that have become
00:01:17dominant political parties, and that is not
00:01:20good when it happens in some transitional and post-socialist countries, because such
00:01:23dominant political parties such as
00:01:26the progressives in Serbia or HDZ in Croatia who have been ruling for
00:01:30over 15 years or, I don't know, SNSD and HDZ who in Bosnia and
00:01:34Herzegovina have been ruling for over 15 years at different levels of
00:01:37government, when such parties stay in power for a long time
00:01:41in transitional countries, they do not produce democratic implications and
00:01:44stability of power as, for example, was the case during
00:01:47Merkel's mandate, so she connected four mandates in
00:01:51a large coalition, but in post-socialist countries, actually,
00:01:54long stays in power deepen various forms of
00:01:58political corruption, uh, "media freedom is reduced,
00:02:01judicial freedom, opposition is suppressed, and so on. So,
00:02:05I hope that we will actually get some real political changes in Bosnia
00:02:08and Herzegovina, as well as in Serbia, uh,
00:02:12in Croatia, you yourself said, in 19 months. It would be best if power in our
00:02:15countries changed after every election, then that
00:02:19kind of political alienation, that kind of alienation of political
00:02:23elites, who, when they connect
00:02:26multiple mandates, then, believe me, they truly forget the citizens, their real needs.
00:02:30Then the citizens are left with nothing but to become politically passive
00:02:33or to gather in these non-institutional forms of politics
00:02:37that I complement, such as the student protests in
00:02:41Serbia. By the way, I think the future is in these forms
00:02:44of organization, where the citizenry will be increasingly dissatisfied in different countries, not only
00:02:48in post-socialist countries, but also in developed democracies, and that they
00:02:51will actually enter the sphere of political organization from this non-institutional sphere.
00:02:55Just please allow me, don't forget that we had
00:02:58such a form of non-institutional political organization in Slovenia about
00:03:0215 years ago, when in 2014, it seems to me, these
00:03:05big protests happened in the north of Slovenia in Maribor, Velenje. Then this
00:03:09student group led by Luka Mesec and Professor
00:03:13Franc Trček formed the Left party, which in its first mandate,
00:03:17it seems to me, won 12 parliamentary seats, in the first
00:03:20elections when it joined, it won 12 parliamentary seats. I sincerely
00:03:24hope that the student movement in Serbia can achieve a good result
00:03:28and even become a part of the government with its partners.
00:03:31Uh, we are almost at the end of the show, I just wanted to
00:03:35is starting to pay people for small amounts of briefly ask you, do you think
00:03:37the Pearl River, these elections for the presidency are the most important? Can there be the most turbulence or
00:03:40some changes there, or do you think not? Well, look, those
00:03:43elections for the presidency are more or less, if we look at the real political
00:03:47reality, symbolically significant, and
00:03:50the most important thing is who will have the largest number of mandates in the legislative institutions of
00:03:54power, in the representative houses. So at the entity
00:03:57level, i.e., this state level of government, because due to the type of political
00:04:01system, it is clear that the government is much more important in performing daily political
00:04:05affairs, but I say, the presidency has that
00:04:08symbolic power. I hope that we can get some new
00:04:12candidates from the opposition, here with this newly
00:04:16formed Croatian [party], I'm rushing you a bit, sorry, we're at the end.
00:04:20Mr. Macan, as an expert, is dialogue important, desirable, always
00:04:23necessary? To conclude, as my colleague said,
00:04:27it depends on the circumstances. So sometimes
00:04:30increasing climate change and that dialogue can be purely a trick, so
00:04:34that some form is satisfied, to say, "we
00:04:37tried but we didn't want to," to be used for an attack, as we see when
00:04:41the tabloids used the refusal of some
00:04:44match that was perhaps not fully defined or how
00:04:48defined. Because, as you say, if there's a duel on N1, but what about
00:04:51for example a duel on RTS? What are the rules if it were there, why would there be
00:04:54a refusal of a duel if it happened? It's not yet. In Croatia, they went
00:04:58to duels, right? It wasn't like this, and they were very watched. They were
00:05:01the entire world population in also usually on national televisions three times most often,
00:05:05and that was a format where people
00:05:08really watch. Maybe first, they mostly watch first. You can
00:05:11already see there simply where things are going. That's
00:05:15a good thing when you have established rules. So here, our
00:05:18rules are quite established. There are challenges, but if
00:05:21you don't have rules, then sometimes it's better to enter a match where you don't know how
00:05:25you'll be beaten up. And you say dialogue, dialogue with
00:05:29citizens. I say, Mayor's formula was to go to the field, and
00:05:32that's probably why the student list copies him. He went to the field, talked to
00:05:36people, bypassed the media, so he raised it through
00:05:39the field and social networks. That's the advantage of young people, because this
00:05:43is a huge capacity of young people for changes through
00:05:46social networks, when exposure is very important in that case. Of course,
00:05:50I have to conclude the show. Thank you very much for being guests of tonight's show. Thank
00:05:53you for watching us. The elections are soon in both countries, in Bosnia and
00:05:57Herzegovina and Serbia. Probably the most important thing is that they pass peacefully
00:06:01and that those election nights pass peacefully as
00:06:04election days. Thank you once again, stay with us. See you next Friday at the same time.
00:06:08Boycotts and protests followed Netanyahu's speech. He called
00:06:12accusations of genocide lies.
00:07:02Iranian President Pezeškan said that Tehran does not
00:07:05want war with America. "If we didn't get along better," says Trump
00:07:09after meeting with Jinping. The Nepalese Prime Minister
00:07:12at the UN requested non-refundable aid for reconstruction after
00:07:16catastrophic floods. Pope Leo XIV arrived for
00:07:19a multi-day visit to France. Welcome to
00:07:22Global. The speech of
00:07:25Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu before the UN General Assembly
00:07:27was marked by
00:07:34a massive boycott of diplomats who left the hall while
00:07:38on the streets of New York there were protests with
00:07:41hundreds arrested. Netanyahu called the accusations of genocide

00:08:05warns that the world has failed the Palestinian people,
00:08:08pointing to the expansion of illegal settlements in the occupied West
00:08:12Bank. The UN warns of a catastrophe in Gaza where
00:08:1690% of the infrastructure has been destroyed, while the number of killed Palestinians

00:08:35what genocidal regime enables the distribution of 2 million
00:08:38tons of food into Gaza? That's a ton for every
00:08:42person. "accusing Israel of
00:08:45genocide is the greatest lie of the century.
00:08:49we've taken innumerable steps to protect the civilian

00:09:19facts, shame on you for inverting victim and
00:09:22aggressor, shame on you for spitting in

00:09:40the Iranian president." told Fox News that Iran does not want war
00:09:44with the US and remains ready to reach a peace
00:09:47agreement. He said that Tehran will respect international
00:09:51law and the agreement on the proliferation of nuclear weapons, but
00:09:54emphasized that the Houthis act independently and that Iran manages
00:09:57their actions. At the same time, British Foreign Secretary Ed
00:10:01Miliband met his Iranian counterpart, Araghchi, in New York,
00:10:04demanding the immediate release of two arrested British citizens
00:10:09and the unblocking of the Strait of Hormuz. And while diplomatic
00:10:12negotiations are contributing to a drop in oil prices on the global market, Colombia has
00:10:16officially severed diplomatic ties with Iran, citing
00:10:20security risks and the blockade of key maritime
00:10:23routes.
00:11:55"a lot of people have issues, they want to challenge policies or
00:11:58implementations of policies, we sit and discuss and reach a

00:12:06we will keep resisting until the very end. yes, we
00:12:09do have economic issues, certainly, but in order to

00:12:27The meeting concluded with messages of stabilizing relations and
00:12:30cooperation in the areas of trade, security, artificial intelligence.
00:12:34Both leaders emphasized the need for better communication and peaceful
00:12:37resolution of disagreements, and Beijing also announced the sending of two
00:12:41pandas to the US as a symbol of friendship. During closed-door talks,
00:12:44Xi called on Washington and Tehran to return to dialogue
00:12:48to end the war in Iran. He also appealed to the US to
00:12:52cautiously approach the issue of Taiwan.
00:13:26fully capable of mutual success, we
00:13:29should demonstrate the responsibility of a great power,
00:13:33and explore a new path for great powers to

00:13:40As the leaders of our two nations, President, she and I,
00:13:44both understand that we represent different systems, but
00:13:48the ties between our people endure, and
00:13:51we've never got a long'. better, since the
00:13:55first trade ships from New York, left the
00:13:59harbor to arrive on the banks of
00:14:02Americans and Chinese have always exchanged goods, knowledge,
00:14:05customs and ideas. This has been the foundation of
00:14:09commerce and mutual respect between our countries,
00:14:12and together we can continue to build a relationship
00:14:16that promotes prosperity and security for
00:14:19future generations.
00:14:22The Prime Minister of Nepal, Balendra
00:14:29Shah, called on the speakers of the UN General Assembly and the
00:14:33international community to finance the country's reconstruction with
00:14:36grants, not new debts. At least
00:14:391450 dead, over 6000 missing and
00:14:43damage that could reach 10% of GDP,
00:14:46these are the consequences of catastrophic floods for which Nepal is seeking
00:14:50world aid. Shah called this catastrophe a warning of
00:14:55called on Nepal, India and China to establish a joint
00:14:59early warning monitoring
00:15:00system.
00:15:05Havok on both sides of Nepal China border, the flood continued
00:15:08downstream to the India. This tells of us something
00:15:12fundamental: climate change does not recognize borders,
00:15:16glaciers and floods do not travel with stamps and
00:15:19passports.
00:15:27Pope Leo XIV began a three-day visit to France.
00:15:30After being welcomed at the airport and meeting with President Macron, the Pope
00:15:34will lead a prayer in Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and address
00:15:38where he will call for the regulation of artificial intelligence. During the visit,
00:15:42he will meet with victims of sexual abuse in
00:15:45Lourdes, while on Saturday he will lead mass before 600 thousand
00:15:48believers. In an interview with journalists on the flight from Rome, the Pope emphasized
00:15:52the importance of media freedom, referring to the controversial decision of the White
00:15:55House to ban journalists from certain networks from accessing, which was
00:15:59in the meantime overturned in

00:18:13AI Central Point, the place where the future begins,
00:18:17Thursdays at 8 PM, only on N1 Television.
00:19:17The AI revolution is here, but along with incredible opportunities
00:19:21come new risks, criminals using AI to scam victims out of hundreds
00:19:25of thousands of dollars, data centers consuming vast amounts of energy and
00:19:28water, and intelligence agencies warning that advanced AI
00:19:32could supercharge cyber attacks, so how worried should we be and
00:19:36who should be held accountable? Let's get into
00:19:38it.
00:19:41Think you'd never fall for an online scam? Well, it can happen to
00:19:44anyone. This businessman lost $400,00 to an AI
00:19:48driven crypto scam. I still wake up occasionally in the middle of the
00:19:52night with anxiety where it just all of sudden hits me. AI
00:19:56assisted scams are a steep rise according to crime researchers and
00:19:59the FBI. Criminal networks use AI to work across borders
00:20:03and languages, reaching more victims than ever before. Here's
00:20:07what you can learn from Chris's story? I
00:20:10met Eliza through Facebook. um
00:20:12November 2024,
00:20:16um, I got a friend request. They began talking, eventually
00:20:20Eliza brought up crypto investments and how much money she made with
00:20:23it. They even had a video call. Eliza looked real. Chris decided
00:20:27to invest. This was a way for me to grow
00:20:30my retirement fund. I had no
00:20:33plans to stay in it for very long. The platform showed steady.
00:20:37profits, everything seemed legit until Chris mentioned it to a
00:20:41friend. I have this friend she's a bank manager, she said, what are you doing,
00:20:44Chris? I said, it's part of my investment, she goes, what are you
00:20:48investing in? She said,
00:20:52You were scammed. The investment platform was fake, the
00:20:56profits were fake and Chris still doesn't know whether he was talking
00:21:00to a person or an AI. There were real people involved,
00:21:03however, one time a man physically came to Chris's house to collect cash in
00:21:07person. Minutes later, the cash showed up in his investment account. When Chris
00:21:10realized he had been scammed, he sent dorble camera footage to law
00:21:14enforcement, but so far no luck catching the man. I was planning to
00:21:17retire in like another three or four years.
00:21:21that unless something changes, that's not going to happen, which
00:21:25is, to say it's discouraging, is probably a gross
00:21:28understatement.
00:21:31This isn't an isolated case, scammers around the world use the same
00:21:35playbook, create fake identity, build trust, convince
00:21:38someone to invest, then disappear. There are entire
00:21:42scam factories, often based in Southeast Asia, they are known to force
00:21:46human traffic victims to work in teams to scam people
00:21:49worldwide. It's estimate that hundreds of thousands of traffic
00:21:52victims are involved in such operations and technology
00:21:56is supercharging this. AI can
00:21:58help criminals write convincing messages in many languages, it can create
00:22:02realistic images, it can clone voices and it makes fake
00:22:06identities much harder to detect. As large language
00:22:09models for example have gotten better and better, you're suddenly
00:22:13globalizing the audience you can communicate with. Some scam
00:22:16factories use specialized software that incorporates leading. models
00:22:20to automate and scale their operations. A recent
00:22:23investigation found Open Ai chat GPT and Google's Gemini
00:22:27to be the most used tools, but models from Europe and China were also
00:22:30used. Internet access is another key part of the operation.
00:22:34Starlink is the number one internet service provider in Myanmar where many
00:22:38scam factories are based. Stark like is way these compounds continued
00:22:42to connect to the internet and the way that they get around all the other restrictions
00:22:46that are put in place. That raises the question of who carries responsibility here.
00:22:50is big tech to blame? most technology companies have guidelines
00:22:54that forbid criminal use of their products, but they also argue that
00:22:57monitoring all user activity would raise privacy concerns. some
00:23:01companies have taken action. starling says it has disabled thousands of
00:23:05internet terminals linked to scam compounds. yet investigators
00:23:08say new sites continue to emerge using starling again. critics
00:23:12argue that AI companies and internet providers have the technical
00:23:15ability to do more but lack regulatory pressure. the united
00:23:19kingdom, the... European Union, Australia and Singapore have
00:23:22introduced rules that require companies to better prevent online
00:23:26scams, but regulation takes time. So what can you do
00:23:29right now? If someone you meet online starts talking about investments, be
00:23:33careful, if they pressure you to move money quickly, that's a major red
00:23:37flag. Use reverse image search to check profile
00:23:40photos, never invest through a link sent by someone you've only met
00:23:44online. Search independently before sending any money,
00:23:47and if something feels off, trust that feeling. you can even paste your chat
00:23:51into an AI tool and ask if it looks like a scam. if you suspect you're
00:23:55being scammed, stop sending money immediately, save messages
00:23:58and take screenshots of payments. report the scam even if you
00:24:02might not get your money back, you could prevent others from fording for the same
00:24:05scam. because as AI continues evolve, your best defense isn't just
00:24:09better technology, it's knowing how these scams really work. stay
00:24:13safe.
00:24:16what if your next electricity bill came with a reward for using less power?
00:24:20so data center can use more. techgiant google
00:24:25their unused energy from household appliancess and evs for
00:24:28example. the idea turn millions of everyday devices into a virtual
00:24:32power plant for data centers. sounds
00:24:35crazy, well, as ai use is exploding, data centers need huge
00:24:39amounts of electricity. they leave a massive environmental footprint because of
00:24:42carbon emissions and extensive water use for cooling. regions in Asia
00:24:46and latin america are seeing data center boom. they can bring
00:24:50jobs and investment, but also strain power supply and increase
00:24:54water and energy costs. so communities are asking, how do we
00:24:57balance the benefits and the downsides? let's break it
00:25:00down. data centers use enormous amounts of
00:25:03electricity, some of the biggest ones can consume as much
00:25:07power as around 50,00 homes together, and for people living
00:25:10nearby that could affect energy supply. take Mumbai for example,
00:25:14experts say the data centers could use one third of the city's electricity by
00:25:182030. one idea we've already teased: virtual
00:25:22power plants or VPPs. The concept is simple: rather than
00:25:25one big power source, a VPP connects thousands of smaller ones, home
00:25:29batteries, EV charges, rooflop solar systems. People get
00:25:33paid to share that energy, helping ease pressure on the grid.
00:25:37Data centers use large amounts of water, mainly to cool their service.
00:25:40According to a recent United Nations report, data centers could consume over
00:25:449 trillion liters of water every year by 2030. That's roughly
00:25:48equivalent to the drinking water.
00:25:51a year. In some regions like Latin America, growing demand is
00:25:55causing tension. Residents are worried about water use during droughts. In
00:25:59Uruguay, for example, mass protest broke out after. a Google
00:26:03Data Center was proposed during the country's worst drought in 70
00:26:06years. A similar fight played out in Chile, one of the most drout-prone
00:26:10countries in Latin America. In Santiagoo serious district, a
00:26:13proposed Google data center was projected to use 7.6
00:26:17million liters of water a day, which is about as much water as the
00:26:20surrounding community uses in year. So what if the cooling
00:26:23water didn't have to come from rivers or groundwater? One idea put
00:26:27data centers in the ocean. China has recently launched an underwater
00:26:31data center. 10 kms off the coast of
00:26:34Shanghai, it sits 10 meters below the surface. the cooling
00:26:38happens naturally there, but some worry that
00:26:40projects like these would disturb marine ecosystems. data
00:26:44centers don't just consume resources, they also occupy
00:26:47land. some feo whole communities could be
00:26:49displaced. it's already happening in India where local farmers
00:26:53refuse to give up their land for a google data center. so to
00:26:57avoid putting any more stress on the planet, some are looking beyond
00:27:00earth. researchers in Singapore have put propos a system where satellites in low
00:27:04earth orbit could act like data centers, sharing computing power,
00:27:08storage and network traffic. to have data centers in space offers
00:27:11two big advantages, almost unlimited solar energy and natural
00:27:15cooling from the extreme cold of space. Europe's ascen
00:27:18project, UAE's Madari Space and China are already testing
00:27:22prototypes, but there are some problems: cost,
00:27:25difficult maintenance or space diby to name few. In the end,
00:27:29feelings are mixed. In some places, data centers were...
00:27:32welcomed, 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
00:27:42over time the public there turned against them. bottom line, data centers bring
00:27:46jobs, innovation and growth, but also noise, pressure on resources
00:27:50and environmental concerns, and while the
00:27:53benefits might be global, the impact is felt most strongly at the
00:27:57local level. so what do you think, is it fair trade-off? what's your
00:28:00take on this? let us know.
00:28:04Imagine waking up, your bank account locked, the power grid completely
00:28:08down, government websites suddenly switched off, an entire
00:28:11country's critical infrastructure crippled in seconds, not by an
00:28:15army of human hackers, but by a single AI model, sounds like
00:28:19sci-fi, right, but according to rare an urgent warning from the Five Eyes
00:28:22intelligence alliance, a scenario like this is only a few months
00:28:26away. The joint statement of five country security agencies says that
00:28:29AI accelerates the speed, scale and... sophistication of cyber
00:28:33threats and urges global leaders to act right now. What's
00:28:37more, this initiative took place in June, only days after the Trump
00:28:40administration officially blocked foreign nationals from accessing
00:28:44Anthropic's Mythis and Fable models. Is the global AI
00:28:47race playing out as a cyber weapons arms race? Let's
00:28:51dive in. The Five Eyes alliance issued a blanket
00:28:54warning about the dangers of so-called frontier AI models. But right
00:28:58now, Anthropic's newest tech is taking center stage. In very
00:29:01simple terms, standard AI can code and fix
00:29:04bugs. Frontier models like Mythis can scan code,
00:29:08find flaws, and then plan, test, and launch a full cyber
00:29:11attack. Previously, targeted zero-day exploits
00:29:15could only be executed by advanced attackers. That means detecting
00:29:19deeply hidden software vulnerabilities that the creators don't
00:29:22even know exist. Now, anyone with an internet connection and access
00:29:26to a capable frontier model could theoretically do that. This
00:29:29drastically accelerates the speed and scale of cyber warfare.
00:29:32For this reason, Anthropic had kept its most powerful
00:29:36frontier model, Cloud Mythis 5, restricted to select
00:29:39corporations to help strengthen cyber defenses. Its hacking
00:29:43capabilities were deemed too dangerous for public use. Cloud
00:29:46Fable 5 was supposed to be the safe public version with built-in guard
00:29:50rails. But the Trump administration didn't agree. They expressed concerns
00:29:53over a potential security flaw, citing a jailbreak that allowed
00:29:57users to bypass the AI safeguards. US authorities
00:30:01claimed there was an unacceptable risk of these models being diverted
00:30:04into military intelligence and used by foreign adversaries.
00:30:08So they banned access to both models for all foreign nationals
00:30:12overnight in a move strongly criticized by developers and
00:30:14experts. Following negotiations,
00:30:18Anthropic officially redeployed and restored Cloud Fable 5 on July
00:30:221st. But what were the global implications of the short-lived
00:30:25ban? Global fallout was massive. By pulling the plug
00:30:28overnight, Washington didn't just hold back a piece of software, they shattered global
00:30:32trust in American tech. Many leaders believed that powerful models like
00:30:36Fable could help patch their own cybersecurity to avoid doomsday
00:30:39scenarios like the one we talked about in the beginning. But if the Trump
00:30:43administration can just cut off anyone, even an ally like
00:30:46Australia, which had just signed a major national AI deal with
00:30:49Anthropic, what's stopping them from blocking access to other crucial software? If
00:30:53tech hubs across Europe, Asia, and Latin America realize they can't
00:30:57rely on American platforms, they will in...
