what's up sunshine it's time to shine
I'm Coy wire pumped to be here with you
this Thursday Happy Friday Eve we are at
Super Bowl radio row where more than
6,000 credential media from more than 20
countries are here to report on the
first ever Super Bowl in Las Vegas
Nevada now speaking of Nevada this state
as well as the Virgin Island will be
holding Republican party caucuses today
now there was a Nevada GOP Primary on
Tuesday but Republicans have chosen to
award their delegates through today's
caucuses former president Donald Trump
is currently in the lead for his party's
nomination and his biggest fight may not
be on the campaign Trail during the
Republican primaries but in the
courtroom earlier this week a federal
appeals court said that Trump is not
immune from prosecution for federal
election subversion charges this ruling
is a blow to Trump's argument that his
action in 2020 were part of his official
duties as president and are therefore
protected from Criminal trials Trump
faces four counts in the election
subversion case which includes
conspiring to defraud the United States
and to obstruct an official proceeding
he has pleaded not guilty now the timing
of this trial will be up to the Supreme
Court Trump's defense team hopes to
delay his criminal cases until after the
20124 election now speaking of the
Supreme Court that leads us to another
legal fight for Trump today the nation's
highest court will hear oral arguments
on whether states can remove Trump from
election ballots last year Colorado's
state Supreme Court ruled Trump is
constitutionally ineligible to run in
2024 because of the 14th amendment's ban
on insurrectionists holding office
covers his conduct on January 6 2021 and
they aren't the only state looking to
remove the former president from
election ballots the last time the
Supreme Court was at the center of a
presidential election battle was back in
2000 where their ruling delivered the
presidency to Republican George W bush
by halting a Florida vote recount
there's a lot to unpack with these cases
but let's turn now to our legal analyst
Ellie honik who looks at what the
Supreme Court Justices will and won't be
deciding in the Trump ballot eligibility
case don't expect the Supreme Court to
decide whether Donald Trump did or did
not engage in Insurrection I'll explain
why in a moment you probably know by now
that the 14th Amendment says that anyone
who is engaged in Insurrection cannot
hold office and that Colorado has
disqualified Donald Trump from its
ballot under that provision now here's
what the Supreme Court will be asking
about Donald Trump's team will argue
that while the 14th Amendment does
specify certain offices Senators
representatives and others it actually
says nothing specifically about the
president Colorado is going to counter
that yes but the 14th Amendment actually
does say it applies to officers of the
United States this will be a close call
it'll come down to how the justices
choose to interpret those words in the
Constitution watch for Trump's team to
argue that it's up to Congress and not
the individual states to decide whether
and how to apply the 14th Amendment
Colorado will argue that the states have
the power to enforce the 14th Amendment
the problem here is if the supreme court
allows the states to make these
decisions on their own we could end up
in a situation where major party
candidates are kicked off the ballot in
some states but not others
so how about the big question did Donald
Trump engage in Insurrection of course
Colorado claims he did and Donald Trump
says he did not but don't expect the
justices to go too deep into this
question first that's just not what the
Supreme Court does they don't hold
trials and they don't find facts second
they don't need to decide this question
the Supreme Court always likes to rule
as narrowly as possible and the Supreme
Court tries to base its rulings on
procedural and constitutional issues
like the ones we just just talked about
however this case comes out we will see
history in the making now I got to go
now as this election season heats up
there is another complicated issue that
could affect political outcomes AI
generated deep fakes a deep fake refers
to audio or video that has been created
using artificial intelligence and these
deep fakes can look and sound realistic
there are tools that can detect these
hoaxes but we're still playing catchup
if you will CNN's donio Sullivan
investigates one mayoral election that
may have been affected by the misuse of
this
technology when Democrat Paul valis ran
in a contentious race last year for
Chicago mayor he faced an unprecedented
attack a deep fake created using
artificial intelligence we need to stop
defunding the police and start refunding
them so you've never actually heard the
audio have oh wow well I'm going to play
it for you no no no no no you don't need
to it's only only aggravate me uh okay
this deep fake audio view played into to
this idea that you know you weren't
Democrat enough for the Democratic party
that you're too Pro police which was a
line of attack against you yeah well
clearly you know look Chicago is a very
very very very blue City and uh they
were trying to uh portray me as some
some uh far hard right Conservative
Republican being able to throw mud
against the wall like that put you in a
position where you have to deny it or
damage has still been done and there is
some damage that's not reparable it's
clear based on the results tonight that
the city is deeply divided valis lost
the election by Four Points he says he
doesn't know the full effect the Deep
fake had on the race the account that
shared the Deep fake of you was called
Chicago lak front news yeah doesn't
exist yeah it doesn't exist yeah so it
was very clearly set up for the purpose
to character assassinate you and this
was a close race and this was a really
close race digital forensics expert hany
fed says AI deep fakes are no longer a
hypothetical problem but an actual
threat to elections 17 or 18 civilians
in their career and nobody would bat an
eye so I make a lot of fakes because I'm
in the business of detecting them and I
can do that whole thing in about 5
minutes y almost anybody here's why I
think audio alone is in some ways a
bigger threat um the most compelling
deep fakes that I've seen are these
so-called hot mic deep fakes you don't
see their mouth moving you don't see
anything but you hear the voice and it's
visceral and it sound sounds like you're
you're EES dropping on them and I think
that that those are really powerful a
CNN analysis shows the US isn't prepared
to respond effectively we asked election
officials in all 50 states how they're
preparing for deep fakes 33 responded
but less than half of those cited
specific actions to handle AI threats I
don't think we're ready I mean we are
still struggling with the last 10 years
of the nonsense that has been social
medias and the lies and the conspiracies
that have propagated it's it's hard to
look at that and say well the injection
of jet fuel into that is not going to
have any impact of course it will they
talk to a lot of people on the left
liberals and there is at times a bit of
smugness there which says well it's the
Trump supporters who fall for online
misinformation right not us yeah AR
we're all susceptible to this are we
yeah we're all susceptible to it and we
all do it and I say we all do it I'm
saying within every group uh there are
people who will do it there are people
who will cross that line a lot of
Americans might think oh the risk of AI
and all this sort of stuff it's in the
future it's being overblown yeah I mean
the future is now the future is here I
won't be the first and I won't be the
last you
know 10 second trivia what year was the
oldest surviving photograph taken 1861
1839 1826 or
1818 if you said 1826 put your hands up
according to how stuff works it took
French inventor Joseph nfor neeps 8
hours to produce the photo using his
primitive
[Applause]
camera today's story getting a 10 out of
10 can you imagine how life will change
a thousand years from now well a
philosopher from the University of
Arizona created a camera to record the
past for future generations and to
prompt all of us to think about how we
can influence the future a thousand
years away here's jemy Roth with more
take a look at a camera that will be
taking one single picture for 1,000
years it's called the Millennium camera
and is an ambitious project from an
experimental philosopher at the
University of Arizona the special camera
setup overlooking a Tucson area desert
was designed to take one extremely long
exposure of the Vista over the next 10
centuries the idea is not only to one
day show how the environment changed
over time but also to inspire
discussions now about actions that can
be taken to shape its future but as far
as the finished photo is concerned it
won't be ready to view until the year
3023 so check back then I guess all
right question for all of you why did
the camera stop dreaming about a Korean
photography it couldn't remain focused
all right Superstars that's it for
today's show but it's time for some
