[JOYFUL MELODY]
COY WIRE: What's up, lovely people?
Terrific Tuesday to you.
I'm Coy Wire.
This is CNN 10 coming to you from Phoenix, Arizona
this week.
Home to cacti, beautiful skies, Super Bowl 57 this Sunday,
and much, much more.
Now, behind me, is Piestewa Peak, one of the highest points
of the Phoenix mountains named in honor of Lori Ann Piestewa,
a United States Army soldier who became
the first known Native American woman to die in combat
while serving our nation.
We're going to start with the latest news out of Turkey,
a country that sits partly in Asia and partly in Europe.
A powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake occurred Monday
in Turkey and parts of Syria which
collapsed thousands of buildings,
killing more than 3,000 people.
It created a new humanitarian disaster
in a region already strained by war, a refugee crisis,
and deep economic troubles.
Turkey hosts 3.6 million Syrian refugees,
the most in the world.
And governments from around the world
have been quick to respond to Turkey's request
for international assistance.
Videos shared from Turkey and across the border in Syria
showed the extent of the damage.
We'll keep you updated as the situation continues to unfold.
Here's CNN meteorologist Karen Maginnis
helping us understand why earthquakes
occur so frequently in Turkey and why
this one was so consequential.
KAREN MAGINNIS: Now, this is real time.
These are some of the aftershocks.
And this is an interesting trajectory, just kind
of this geometry of where that energy
was lying as it just kind of raced along that fault line.
And this is one of the most active seismic areas
in the entire world.
That's because we've got a lot of tectonic plates moving
around across this region.
We've got a lot of rift zones.
And this is illustrative of just how devastating
these earthquakes can be.
Now, most of these are earthquakes
are not major earthquakes.
But this one, 7.8.
It rivals one that occurred in Northeastern Turkey, 1939.
There were 16,000, 17,000 fatalities
associated with that.
It was at the same magnitude.
This earthquake was shallow.
That means the effects are going to be felt much more
severely than if it were much further down
into the core of the Earth.
All right, here are these tectonic plates
I was talking about.
Essentially, these are constantly shifting.
There are always earthquakes somewhere in this region
being reported.
But this one happened to be a major earthquake
and devastating.
This is devastating, one that will be in the record books.
We'll remember February 2023 for this massive, violent
earthquake that took place in South central Turkey that
has interrupted so many people's lives, but not just in Turkey,
in Israel, in Jordan, in Syria, where so many displaced people
are currently located.
COY WIRE: January's US jobs report
surprised a lot of economists.
The results showed far more jobs added than expected.
And the unemployment rate fell to 3.4%, the lowest
since May of 1969.
With America adding more than half a million jobs last month,
we're getting more surprising clues about the overall state
of the US economy.
And it comes as the country grapples
with the impact and usefulness of new artificial intelligence
platforms.
Some worry that one day, sooner than later, a plethora of jobs
could be taken away from real humans
and given to robots and computers
that could presumably do the work faster,
cheaper, et cetera.
CNN Business and politics correspondent Vanessa Yurkevich
sat down with an expert to discuss whether this threat is
real or imagined.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: Which jobs is AI coming after first?
SHELLY PALMER: If you're a meal manager, you're doomed.
Any kind of commodity salesperson, report writers
and journalists, accountants and bookkeepers, and oddly enough,
doctors who are looking--
who specialize in things like drug interactions.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: Do you mean out of a job?
SHELLY PALMER: No.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: Or you mean that part of your job?
SHELLY PALMER: That part. VANESSA YURKEVICH: OK.
Phew.
That's the relief a lot of Americans
are looking for right now.
Will it take my job?
SHELLY PALMER: Yes and no.
It's not going to replace you.
Someone who knows how to use it well is going to take your job.
And that's a guarantee.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: By 2025, the World Economic Forum
predicts that 85 million jobs will be displaced
by automation and technology.
But it will also create 97 million new roles.
We've seen it before in the auto industry.
SHELLY PALMER: While the auto worker may be displaced
because they are not as good at welding or as painting
as the robot, there's probably 35 people
that have to be involved in the creation
and maintenance of that device that
welds better than a person.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: And that's what
happened at Carbon Robotics.
Former auto workers now building an AI laser
wieder in Detroit for farms.
The laser reader still operated by a human but run by AI
can do the work of between 40 to 80 people,
says the CEO, filling roles that are hard to find humans for.

This music is composed solely by artificial intelligence
called Aiva.
It even has an album you can stream.
AI music is more affordable.
There's no producer, composer, or artist to pay.
KARL FOWLKES: Its taken away opportunity from songwriters,
producers, and artists, right.
So the people are trying to feed them, their families.
VANESSA YURKEVICH: Something similar
is happening in the art world, leading artists Kara Ortiz
and two others to file a class action
lawsuit against three AI art companies
for copyright infringement.
Ortiz claims they're using her name and art to train the AI.
KARLA ORTIZ: It's feast and famine for most of us.
We go job by job.
And what happens when there's a little bit
less work to go around?
- My father tried to teach me human emotions.
SHELLY PALMER: There's a wonderful scene
in the movie "I, Robot."
Detective Spooner hates robots.
And he says--
- Can a robot write a symphony?
Can a robot turn a canvas into a beautiful masterpiece?
SHELLY PALMER: And the robot looks up at goes--
- Can you?
SHELLY PALMER: Every one of us is not Mozart, or Rembrandt,
or Picasso, or choose your super famous, amazing artist
or artisan.
We're just people.
This is not coming to kill us.
It's coming to help us.
COY WIRE: 10 second trivia.
Located in Midtown Manhattan, which
of these sports facilities is dubbed
the world's most famous arena?
Churchill Downs, Yankee Stadium, Madison Square
Garden, or Silverstone Circuit?
The correct answer here is Madison Square Garden, often
referred to as The Garden.
And up next, most of us have heard of facial recognition
technology, the software capable of matching a human face
from a digital image or video against real faces in real time
or a database of faces.
While the technology is being praised as a way
to heighten security and can make things like unlocking
your phone quicker and easier, some view
it as an invasion of privacy.
What do you think?
Here's CNN correspondent Omar Jimenez from inside New York
City's Madison Square Garden.
- You come up on matching somebody
on facial recognitions?
- He was recognized on facial recognition
cameras, then confronted.
- You're Benjamin Noren?
- Yes.
- This is how lawyer Benjamin Noren from One New York City
law firm was greeted by Madison Square
Garden staff while trying to attend an event in the fall.
- The ticket has been revoked, and you are
not permitted in the building.
It's because Noren works for a law firm,
representing ticket brokers in a lawsuit against Madison
Square Garden Entertainment.
All of the roughly 60 lawyers at his firm
are also banned until the litigation is resolved.
Some experts believe it's a slippery slope
and not just the discretionary power of who else
could be flagged in the future but one
method being used to enforce it, even if it is legal.
DAVE MAASS: I have read their privacy policy.
They explicitly say that the biometrics they capture
from you can be used for any purpose that would benefit
their economic interest.
- Some don't believe it should be used at all.
ALBERT FOX CAHN: And I am terrified of the day
where we allow companies to use so many forms of tracking
and surveillance that we end up in the middle of one
of the largest cities on the planet
without any place we can actually
go while keeping our privacy.

COY WIRE: In today's story getting a 10 out of 10,
we're talking about the world's oldest dog again.
Two weeks ago, we brought you Spike,
a 23-year-old chihuahua mix from Ohio who was
named the oldest living dog.
But along comes Bobi.
And Bobi's like, not so fast, my man's best friend.
Bobi is a Portuguese mastiff from Portugal.
And at 30 years old, he has now been
named the world's oldest living dog
by the Guinness World Records.
Having lived twice his life expectancy,
he's also now considered officially
the oldest dog to ever live.
The previous record of 29 years and 5 months
was set back in the 1930s by an Australian cattle
dog named Bluey.
Bobi's age has been confirmed by the veterinary medical service
and a Portuguese pet database.
30 years ago, that was 1993 when the world
wide web was made available to the public for the first time.
So congrats, Bobi.
That's a WWW to you.
Also winning, Salina South Middle
School in Salina, Kansas.
