Card image cap

Are. Rose we continue with a conversation of Mark Phillips of cbs news london. I think were at a crisis in journalism now, not just tv journalism, and i think its been illustrated being illustrated now in the course of the president ial Election Campaign here, was illustrated in the course of the brexit referendum campaign, were applying rules that served us well of fairness and balance and letting the two sides make their arguments and presenting it in the same way we have historically covering politics in the western world. Rose and we conclude with reid hoffman, part two of a conversation about the future of technology. If someone described facebook before it existed, you would have thought it seems like an awful invasion of privacy, yet over a billion people every day using this, sharing experiences and pictures. That being said, what i think it is key is to surface the issues to Pay Attention to them and try to navigate the technology to get most of the benefit. Rose Space Exploration, a career in journalism and the future of Technology Part two, when we continue. Rose funding for charlie rose has been provided by the following and by bloomberg, a provider of multimedia news and Information Services worldwide. Captioning sponsored by Rose Communications from our studios in new york city, this is charlie rose. Rose as the week ended, so did the 12year flight to have the rosetta, the first spacecraft to successfully orbit a comet and early friday morning sent one last batch of images and landed on that comet and powered down. Joining me from washington, Rachel Feltman of the washington post, and dr. Michelle thaller of n. A. S. A. And Daniela Hernandez to have the wall street journal. Welcome one and all. Its so good to have three women here to talk about science, and i look forward to it. Its such a great story. Super exciting. Rose let me begin with dr. Tharl, tell me about rosetta, what was it about . And what did we learn from it . Comets are exciting. People know theyre large balls of ice and rock but i dont think people understand how scientifically valuable they are. Theyre actually time capsules. Theyre bits of planets that were never made into anything larger. So when our solar system was forming billions of years ago, bits were left over that became comets and astroids. When you sample a comet you have a chance of seeing what the solar system was like billions of years ago, where our chemistry came from and the history of where we are. Whats interesting about rosetta, there is beauty of the images, but the water in our bodies are more like in the astroids and comets. Were piecing together the origin of life. Rose this was a 12year flight . The launch was in 2004, yep. Rose lets talk about the touchdown. That sounds amazing to me. Isnt it amazing . Rose yes. There was the phi the end of time. Rose this handing must have been very difficult to land on a comet . Well, they had practice before, as dr. Thaller said. The philae landed back in 2014. That was not without its dramatic moment, of course. The scientists wanted it to land on a flat surface so that it wouldnt bounce around and leave the comet, because it doesnt have as much of a gravitational pull as earth. But as they discovered later, it actually bounced around a little bit. This time, theyre not able to likely know exactly what happened to it now that its on the comet because the link back its communication link back to us is now severed. Rose whats most surprising about this, then . About rose this Successful Mission and landing on the comet . Is it the landing or the data that they have gained or understanding something about the way i think its both. Rose things work . Something that came to be after many, many years of dreaming that Something Like this could happen, the idea for this mission goes back to the 1970s. It wasnt approved until the 1990s, and then it finally took off in 2004 2004. We are now trying to land and mine astroids for business purposes and this gives us clues as to how we can go about doing that. As dr. Thaller said, the data that came back, the linkage to the beginning of time is interesting and beautiful. I love a lot about thisry . At story. You know, i have been following it since the orbiter started to orbit the comet a couple of years ago and, you know, that that philae landing was fantastic. It captured the publics interest. People have been more engaged with this comet than otherwise because people got attached to the lander and invested in the story when it went missing. Its wrapped up nicely. Its very recently they actually located the lander in its final resting place, and one thing i love about the end of the Rosetta Mission is that it sounds like a waste of a billiondollar spacecraft that crashed into a comet, but its actually a perfect way to end the mission. The comet is on the outward leg of the orbit. As the spacecraft got farther away, it would have lost the sunlight it needed to power its system. So instead of watching it slowly die or hoping five years from now they would weight up again, they decided to send it on a final nose dive into a particularly interesting active part of the comet, so the data they got in the landing today will attribute the body of knowledge we have about this comet and comets in general. So its an awesome way to send off a Successful Mission. Rose i want to remind the viewers that the comet is moving at 80,000mileperhour, so coming down on top of something moving 80,000mileperhour. Dr. Thaller, helps us understand more about comets. What happens when they approach the sun . What do we learn from them and why are they important . This is one of the main goals of the Rosetta Mission waso to observe a comet as it cloms closer to the sun. A lot of people know comets have beautiful tails and the tails happen when the gases begin to warm up and sublime and hang around and the solar wind blows the tail out. Thats usually what you see associated with the comet is this beautiful long tail. The amazing thing about this mission is we were there for the beginning of the process. We were there as it approached the sun, as it became more active. We saw jets of gas coming off the comet. So this was a ringside seat to understanding the process of what creates that tail. So that was one of the more exciting things for me as day by day as it got closer to the sun, you would see more activity and more dramatic things going on. Rose this is a reminder. Two things happened this week. We also were reminded by elon musk that hes going to try to go to mars and try to send spacecraft to mars and people to mars at some point in the future, and then this remarkable landing on a comet by rosetta, i mean, this says one more time that the exploration of the skies is continuing, you know. There have been this constant exploration of what we dont know is continuing even though it might not have had as much attendant publicity when certain sending up spacecraft to land on the moon and tall attendant publicity with all of that. Yes . Well, you know, one of the things for me is the advent of social media kind of changed what publicity means. I was very impressed by the fact when we flew by pluto about year ago, we had a social media footprint of over 12 billion, which means billions of people around the world actually came back more than once to learn about the mission. So its true in the apollo days things were being talked about in the united states, things were sort of frontpage news, but im very proud of the fact that we have a very, very broad reach now and, so, the evolution ive enjoyed seeing and the European Space agency took wonderful advantage of this with rosetta and n. A. S. A. Went along with this as well. I love the social Media Presence of this. Rose n. A. S. A. Was involved in what they . N. A. S. A. Contributed three of the instruments, we collaborated on a fourth treatment and a number of project scientists and all that. But as far as social media, they have cartoon characters for the orbiter and the lander and everything that was happening, these characters would show you what was going on. I hate to say, i got sort of emotionally attached to them, the Philae Lander went the to sleep and kind of tucked itself in, i found myself choking back tears there. They got me emotionally involved in the mission. I love the social media program. Rose are we going to change and learn new things about the formation of the universe and the relationship between well, we learned quite a pit of things already. For example, we we learned there were amino acids on the comet that maybe helped seed life on earth. Scientists dont think there was life on these comets, but when they crashed on to earth, maybe they brought with them a starter pack for life. Rose a startup back for life . Exactly. Right now, one of the compounds is found in lots of proteins. You also have phosphorous being brought by things like this, and thats involved in the dna makeup. So you have these elements that link us back to the beginnings of the universe, and there is tons and tons of data images that the rosetta spacecraft took that the scientists will continue to analyze for years to come. Rose associated peres wrote and ill ask you about this, rachel, the Associated Press wrote should earth ever be threatened by an astroid, the experience gained from the Rosetta Mission would prove valuable. Yeah, so, you know, in general, you know, when we talk about flying space rocks, you know, we want to understand how they are, how they behave during their orbit. You know, one thing thats interesting is that, when we look at astroids near earth and, you know, the upcoming astroidrelated missions that nay is a has n. A. S. A. Planned you know, theyre going to grab a piece of an astroid or redirect an astroid and a big part of the mission is understanding the way those bodies interact with the sun as they come closer to it. For example, we know that when these bodies warm up, it changes their trajectory a little bit, but we dont quite understand that well enough to factor that into, you know, models of how close they might get which is often why there is kind of a large margin of error when youre talking about how likely it is for something to hit earth. So just understanding how these things are composed, you know, how they came to be, how they act when theyre close to the sun, will really help us, first of all, determine whether or not something was actually a threat. Also if we get good at having spacecraft that can successfully orbit or land on these bodies means were more likely to be able to interact with them in a way that would stop them from colliding with earth. Rose what is the most tantalizing question for you about Space Exploration . Ill start with you, michelle. Right. Well, you know, the reason we do Space Exploration really is to look for our own origins. Were trying to find a bit of our own history out there, all the way back from the big bang to the formation to have the solar system, and comets are a really, really important piece of that puzzle. We have a sample of what you were like, what your molecules were like and the conditions were like a billion years ago. Im looking for the story of why am i talking to you and how did the universe make that happen . Rose rachel . Im exciting about the upcoming planned mission to uropa in 2022 and looking at the moons in our own solar system that have the Global Oceans on them that for all we know could be full of weird microbial life. To me, its exciting when we talk about other planets and so ther solar systems, but the idea that, you know, we might be able to find life so close to home or not find life, even though all the conditions that should support it exist, is so intriguing, and i cant wait until were far enough along to answer those questions. Rose exactly. And for you . Im a huge traveler, so for me its the idea that perhaps, in my lifetime, i will be able to pay maybe a couple hundred thousand dollars or less to get into space and see rose you want to go . I want to go. I want to go up there and see the earth and the moon. Rose me, too, because anybody whos seen it says its like nothing you cant imagine the experience of seeing the perspective of there is earth. I get choked up just seeing glaciers, so seeing the earth from above would be spectacular. Rose thank you all. Its a pleasure to have you on this program and know all you. You whet my appetite to know more about exploration of space. So thank you for joining us. My pleasure. Great to be here. Rose well be right back. Astay with us. Rose Mark Phillips is here, hes senior Foreign Correspondent for cbs news and one of the most respected journalists in the news room. His unique style of writing blends accuracy and at tod with a little humor mixed in on the side. His catalog of work earned him the respect of his peers and been recognized with multiple emmys and in 2013 the edward r. Murrow award. He covered the sir yrn refugee crisis to the royal family. Heres a look at some of his many reports. A sleeping princess not ten hours old when she left the hospital with her parents, it may be a while before any prince charming arrives to wake her, but if she had opened her eyes, she would have seen what would have become a familiar sight, hundreds hundreds of people looking at her. Are you telling people are richer. Financial markets are rubbish. I used to work in them. The queen doesnt only understand the job, royal author Robert Hardeman said she defined it. The queen is not elected. Shes there to b not to do. And she has been just about everywhere and met just about everyone. Nice to see you again. Those who have been dealing with the crisis on the ground, like francesca rocka of the red cross, arent holding out much hope for a quick solution. Something that must be solved. This week we will have again another meeting, we are awaiting, every week there is a meeting but no response from the meeting, nothing happens. Nothing happens because the arithmetic doesnt add up. If you take the numbers of all the migrants various countries agreed to accept, that still doesnt account for all of the migrants who are already in europe and there are more coming. Rose Mark Phillips has been based in the London Bureau more than two decades. Please to have had him here. He is a colleague and highly respected on the part of me and my colleagues at the cbs this morning program. Welcome. Thank you very much. Rose can you think of anything you would rather do . Other than go sailing . Anything workwise that i could live on . Rose make a comparable income. No, i could not think of a career that i would have rather had than the one i have had. You know, its not all gallivanting around for the worlds garden spots, i will say that. Rose some of them can be like hell. Some of them are hell. And the hours are crazy because if you work overseas, you know, youre up until midnight, 1 00 in the morning doing the evening news, then your show in the morning early enough and that kind of thing, but, no, its been pretty satisfying. Rose is it simply storytelling that you love . Its finding out stuff, which i guess amounts to the same thing, and figuring out how to get across what it is that youre witnessing, and not just that, but even more important, what your witnessing means, not just to the people there but in the audience back here. Rose you did a little q a with the people at cbs, and i read the transcript of that. laughter i must do that. Rose heres what came out of it, a great accepts of the explanatory role of journalism, connect events to the lives of people. That kind of thing, so that its not just the shock of the new, its the meaning of the new. Yeah, i think i think we all recognize in television that its not the best medium for explaining stuff. Its too easy to rely on the emotional. Its a closeup medium, the crying, tearstained babys face rose the face of victim. It is the journalism of victimhood because, a, its the thing you see and its a lot easier to put that picture on the air and let it tell its story than it is to get into the reasons why that kid is in that situation. Rose people constantly say to me, why so many fires and why so many floods . Well rose can you explain why . Its not just in tv, there is a tendency right through the media in journalism generally of if it bleeds it leads maxim, but there is also the responsibility if youre there to tell people not just whats going on but why its going on. Rose the London Bureau is legendary within the halls of cbs. It goes back to murrow, you won that award, goes through colinwood and great producers and correspondents. I mean, there is something there. There is. I think its a very special place within the company and within the business. It was effectively the first Foreign Bureau established by murrow in the war yearser. Rose he was then radio. Yes. Rose is london the place you would most rather live . I think the more places you live, the more you would like to live in a place with the good things of all the placous did live. Theres no Perfect Place but london is a nice place to call home. Rose if you were there during the years that went from brezhnev to gorbachev to i had three general secretaries. Rose and a andropov. And i had 13 months of cehnanko and the gorbachev thing. It was a a whirlwind when i was there and during the period when you could see the bits falling off the system, the dissident system was very active at that point, Street Market were being set up, there was a desperate attempt to keep the system together on the part of gorbachev again realizing, he said later, it was a losing cause. So yes, it was a terrific time to be there. Rose interesting, at cbs news, one of the meaningful moments when i was so new, i did night watch and cherniko died and i had to announce the death to the world from cbs news in washington. So i thought, there i was, we opened to moscow and there was the kremlin, and i thought, my god, and i had a longstanding interest in russia, have interviewed lots of russians include Foreign Ministers and one president. What do you think of putin . I think he fits the picture. The russians like their leaders strong and the strong hike to stay leaders. So they gather leaders of survival around them and he falls in that mold the great democratic experiment in the post89 post90 years. Never put out roots. Its a tough place to be an opposition politician or journalist some days. Rose like turkey. Some ways like turkey. Some ways, journalistically, i kind of prefer the old moscow. I have been back quite a few times since living there and i giggle when i walk down the streets now because the old task building which had the names carved into stone are now covered with the signs for panasonic and hyundai and what have you but if you know theyre there, theyre still there. Its pretty amusing some times. Rose what was the most interesting war youve covered . Its hard to talk about having a favorite. Interesting war . I dont know if there is a more interesting war. I think i did a count of somewhere up around 20 different conflicts i covered over the years . You said Something Interesting about that, too. How do you know when this is the last one . I talked to richard engle, he said its less attractive. That happens. No, im not a fan of what i call bulletswhizzedaroundme journalism, the classic joke of the newspaper reporter who files copies saying bullets whizzed around me as. Wires. Rose the hemingway tradition. Yes. I dont think you have to be jumping in holes and covered in dust to explain these things. I think there probably, is you know, one role of the dice too many that sadly people have paid the ultimate price on. You never know when thats coming but sometimes i think you can smell when its close. Rose can you really . I think you can, yeah. Of all the places i have been, i can think of two or three times i thought, i really shouldnt be here, you know, this could be it. Rose when you feel that, whats your instinct . To be more careful or initially duck and be more careful. I think mostly youre thinking how do i get out of this particular one and i will be more careful next time. Rose covering culture, there is a lot of culture in london. There is a lot of theater. There is a lot of royal family. There is a lot of opera. You know, i mean, its a wonderful city to sort of and theres the history, which would be enormously appealing to me to be in the midst of all that. Yes, a great place to live. Rose but as a journalist as well. Yes, it is. I think there are two places, of all the places i lived, two places in europe that are a story in and among themselves if you will. Britain is one because of all the things you mentioned. Rose britain, not just london. Yes, but london. People will make the case that london isnt britain the way they make the case new york isnt america, but people live in those places have a different view. Rose they do. The other one is italy. Rose theres the notion it ends at the hudson. Thats right. The other one is italy, there is a kind of residual interest in the audience here and for some reason stuff italian, maybe the immigration, people find the brits amusing so you can do a lot of softer pieces, cultural pieces about the british, and you can kind of do it about the italians. Nobody finds, somehow, the french or germans amusing. Rose amusing is the word. Tough to sell softer stories on them. But, yes, london is a fabulous place to live. There is a lot going on. Rose so the powers that be say tell me what kinds of stories, what kinds of beats, what kinds of things you would most like to do, what would you tell them . The i thin thing im trying h most now is the climate story. I think the climate story is the big story around and it has implications that are economic, social. Rose you do climate diaries. Yes, i have a climate diary series that ropes occasionally when i have time to get at it in the midst of Everything Else thats going on. But i think its driving a lot of other news these days. Its driving a lot of the refugee question, particularly out of africa. Its undeniable that somethings going on and that we have to adjust and somehow cope with whats coming, and we ought to be doing more about it. Rose whatever limitations there are in terms of climate, for example, is it your time or air time that is the greater restriction . Mostly my time. I have to say that the company cbs has been pretty good about and is interested in the story and will put it on, but mostly its a question of freeing enough time because, you know, news stories kind of happen. You saw bits of the refugee story go by and if there is something royally going on, they take place during a restricted time period and place. The climate stories you have to go get, so there is travel time and production times, what have you. There are fewer of them. We try to make them longer but there are fewer of them. Rose it is the biggest story and the biggest challenge we face and a bigger challenge than terrorism, its argued, not to minimize terrorism at all, but what has the power to threaten our entire civilization. Yeah, i dont think you have to order it, you know, whats bigger than the other. Terror is a big story, no question about it, but i think climate is a Freight Train chugging down the tracks. Rose and there is a lot of coverage, but you dont get a sense, you know, if you listen to al gore who is insistent and obsessive and, i think, right about most of it, you know its there and a big story, but you dont see people having the same sense of fear. No, because it doesnt is that you cant see it, unless they go to places where the melting is taking place. Youre starting to see it. If you look at the numbers, you start to see it. The climate refugee problem which has already beginning to happen. Rose explain the climate refugee problem. I just did a piece, hasnt gone on the air yet. The u. N. Now estimates an area about the size of alaska is what they now call saltaffected agriculture land where, because of encroaching sea levels and Climate Change, there are areas where people stop growing things particularly in africa and other places, thats part of whats spurring the economic decline, the push of refugees. In the past weve seen nor african than syrian and middle eastern refugees and thats one of the things theyre running from. But the problem is that, in television terms, its harder to do those stories. They arent bangbang stories, there isnt the immediate emotional effect of them that you get on other stories. Theyre longerterm, and you have to convince people that theyre important, and its harder work. Rose do you have whats your attitude about the royal family . You have an attitude about the royal family. I like them. Rose is there a connection between them and their public . I dont think you can regularly do royal stories without bringing to the whole question a kind of sense of the absurd. Yeah, if a martian landed and you were told a country like the u. K. , a modern country, still had this thousandyearold rose 80yearold, 90yearold woman they worship and has done a very good job as queen. Very tough act to follow, but i think you would have a tough time selling that idea to a visiting alien. So without being irreverent, and certainly without being insulting, you have to kind of help people along through that story by being perhaps whimsical. Rose whimsical is perhaps the word for it. Certainly not the word for aleppo. Certainly not the word for aleppo, no. Rose does someone whos had your experience see the tragedy of that and say, i want to be there . To be rose blunt. Perfectly honest, not that we havent been, the answer is yes and no. Syria is a particular problem for us because its the first major conflict we havent really been able to get at just because its too dangerous to get at. You can go to damascus you know, a couple of weeks ago, they brought people to aleppo, but on the government side. Its just too dangerous to go into syria the way we were going into syria earlier in the war from turkey, linking up with whichever of the rebel groups that you could hopefully trust. Its just too dangerous to do that now, and thats the frustration covering the syrian story. We all know whats going on. Past a certain point, i think the audience becomes anured to it as well. To coin a famous phrase, whats aleppo . Its been going on for so long and i think peopleas attitude to it is kind of colored by the frustration of the impotence of being able to affect it. Rose isnt the responsibility of journalism to hammer it every night because of that . Because people are deadened to it . Its a real challenge. Nobody would put it on every night, to be frank, although they could. Its a story that happens every day. And the challenge is to keep it on the public agenda, i agree. But its not an easy thing to do simply because its kind of falling off the political agenda, as well. Rose just pick for a moment, put on that journalism critic hat, is there anything were not doing we should do . Are we not covering things the way we ought to cover things . I think were at a crisis in journalism now, not just in tv journalism, but journalism better, and i think its been illustrated its being illustrated now in the course of the president ial Election Campaign here, was illustrated in the course of the brexit referendum campaign, were applying rules that served us well of fairness and balance and letting the two sides make their arguments and presenting it in the same way that we have historically covering politics in the western world. But in this case, its like generals trying to fight asymmetrical wars. The the journalism arguments have become asymmetrical. In the brexit, a lot of home work was down showing the calculation why they thought brexit was a bad idea economically, socially, politically. Rose why should they remain in the european union. Yes, why should they remain and things could turn quite sour if they left, and the brexiters, the ones who wanted to leave and ultimately won, would say thats scare tactics, and that becomes the argument, the calculation versus the accusation that youre trying to scare people. Rose and weve seen the process beginning to take hold, some were suggesting it may not be as bad as much too soon to tell. Rose others are saying, no, its not too soon and others are saying it is going to be. There is a circular nature to tar arguments. Rose the other thing let me just say, i think its being seen here as well in the president ial campaign as well, but i just think that we have to be we talk about attitude, we have to be more examining and strive for accuracy as well. Theres a problem with being too judgmental, you cant be too judgmental, but i think you have to moderate your approach to the subject matter a little more carefully. Rose what you seem to be saying which i tend to agree with is this notion you have to do a lot more digging and a lot more saying its not just a question of putting a versus b. Thats right. Rose youve got to figure out a way andeth to, seems like, say here is the evidence as to why this argument has more power than that argument. Yeah, i think so. You have to imply a little more proactive journalism, i suppose, to the approach. Its a very difficult thing to do. Rose is it talked that must have among journalism council, people coming together saying this is how we do our job . I hope so. I think were seeing, i would argue, two of the most open and democratic societies on the planet, were seeing were in a situation now where the types of journalism that we have been applying needs to be examined again. Rose a variation of this, too, is the horse race idea. Yes. Rose we spend a whole lot of time saying whos winning and whos ahead. Yep. Rose and sometimes being wrong as you were in the brexit vote. Yeah, polls are narrowing, polls are spreading. We do too much horse racing. Rose i dont want to wrarchg it, but i dont want to rank it but is it the political story that causes the most sense of mission to you . Im always interested in power. Rose right. And im interested in examining how its applied, the leaders of power, i think that is the great function thats constitutionally protected here of the press in a democracy, but im not if i had only done politics in my life and worked pure political beats both in washington and ottawa, i dont think it would have been nearly as interesting. Rose but at the same time power is about all of the human emotions. Right. Rose thank you for coming. My pleasure. Rose Mark Phillips of cbs news. Rose tell me where it is that people like you sit around, think about the future and say we know this will be big, artificial intelligence, we know Virtual Reality has lots of possibilities, what else . Ill do two. A classic for Silicon Valley is thinking about networks and market places. I this year i invested in uber for small trucking called convoy. How do you enable people to be productive and facilitate Truck Network like a car network like uber and lyft and whatnot and we look at those. Those are still classic because its how do you design and improve human ecosystems and those are still very interesting. The other one is one of the things that has been there have been more moon shots might not be the right word especially with elon opening up to mars, awesome. But, for example, a number of Fusion Companies are being invested in where theyre, like, maybe because if we can solve fusion, Climate Change is a part of Gates Breakthrough Energy challenge coalition, and, so, there is a lot of focus on that and actually, in fact, here is a way to think about how Silicon Valley is, and fusion is just new. Rose talk a little bit about, too, this idea of sensors because, two big words, data and sensors. One leads to the other. Exactly. So what happens, part of what makes the art initial intelligence and a lot of the software happen is you say we have all this electronic data, some of it is attributed to people, but we have sensors all over the place. Our mobile phones, cameras, audio mikes, et cetera, sensors have become cheap everywhere. I think its a good idea to say we should actually do what the british do in london and have cameras on all the public streets. I think thats a good idea. Yes, people worry about privacy, but safety, security, ability to respond to things, those kind of things are good and all of that, then, makes that data electronically available which means we can do good things with it. For example, like were working through what are very important privacy issues not we, the industry on medical information. For example, if we can put in all of this Cancer Information and we can study outcomes and remedies and genetics with it, we might today be able to make just todays technology be able to make great inroads into cancer just by having a large data set saying this genome with this kind of therapeutic, that works, and that works consistently, so thats how we should prescribe when we have that kind of genome. Rose thats what watson does, in part. Absolutely. Rose and very successfully. When you take all these kinds of things and is there anything about this that worries you . Can you say to us, im a technologist, im a venture capitalist, im an entrepreneur and i, therefore, see all the big ideas that are coming down the pike, and i look at what is extension of those big ideas are, and here are a couple of things that worry me, whether its privacy or so broadly, like many of my folks in Silicon Valley, im a tectechtechnoutopian. I think Technology Leads to progress. There can be pain sorting it out. Its not anything thats technology is good, thats foolishness. Our notions of privacy change. If someone described facebook before it existed that would seem like an awful invasion of privacy, yet over a billion people a day are using this sharing experience and pictures. The key is to surface the issues, Pay Attention to them and navigate the technology to get most of the benefits, its like, you know, people have always been worried about the Industrial Revolution, manufacturing revolution. Rose information revolution. Information revolution, theyre always worried about the down sides. They should be. Its not wrong to be worried about it. But if we look back on our own history, were a lot better off when we deploy those revolutions and figure out how to make humanity better, and we change things, like we do an Industrial Revolution and put in child labor laws. You know, there is things that are legally important to say, okay, lets make sure i think we need to solve privacy and we need to solve privacy of medical data and that kind of thing, but if we can get all of the medical data in a comp pewtationly accessible way, we can know therapeutics and those things are important, so broadly speaking, im a utopian, but thats not, for example, lets take one of the classic ones around the eye is are we going to have great labor translations and the short answer is yes. Rose robots will be doing jobs people do today . Exactly. Thats already happening with manufacturing. The thing we need to do is, as a society, help the people who are being shifted to find other productive ways of being good members of society. Its not wel welfare, its, no,y job matters and we should do that together as entrepreneurs and government. We should all do that. The big one will be selfdriving because selfdriving is, okay, there is millions of people who are employed as drivers, truckers, cars, et cetera, and as that changes, we need to make sure that there is a good path for those people for other rose where is the valley, if it is in one place, of all the controversy about the capacity to go in the back door of smartphones. Everybody seemed to support tim cook with few exceptions. Yes, i am also a strong supporter of the no backdoor policy, or to be blunt, the way that surveillance should happen is through the mechanism of courts and warrants. Rose right. Which is the front door. Like, oh, were looking at x. I think thats right from the Civil Liberties point of view, i think thats right from a Global Leadership point of view, and i also think thats right from a Security Point of view. Rose if you want to access somebodys smartphone because you think theyre either planning or have done something awful like a terrorist act would be, then go to the government and get permission to open that thing. Yes. And, by the way, internationally, people are supportive of that, too. Thats okay when youre doing the, oh, we have a specific reason and were going through a thirdparty court, european friends and other folks understand the process. Rose is tim cook okay with that . Yes. Rose so thats the solution, i think. Well, i dont know im pretty sure. I have not talked to him specifically about it. Rose and there is always this talk about, you know, that its the responsibility to have a serious conversation ability this so everybody is on board. They want to always agree in the end, but they need to have a conversation about this and it ought to be not a decision made by one investigative outfit or another. It should be a decision, whether congress or some other possibility, for understanding where the public it ought to be the public that has a role in the decisionmaking about the balance between security and freedom. Yes. But one of the things that people dont realize on the cell phone thing is there is security versus security. Most to have the solutions that say, well, well give keys to a company or Government Holding them, make the whole thing a lot less secure. Rose right. So we do want to have security, but its not just the dont create master keys, its not just the backdoor thing, it weakens the entire network to hacking to bad state actors rose if you get in the backdoor, then somebody else who does not have the same intent you do will get in the backdoor including people who oppose us internationally. We need the help on the security issue. I think they could get more help from us if they agreed to say, look, were doing it all above board. Would we all including you be scared to death if we knew how much information there is already on the Public Record about us . And i mean this company, that company, this credit card and that credit card, this internet acount and that internet, how much they know . I think everyone would be really startled. This is, like, for example, you know, there was a Credit Card Company that could actually predict whether or not you were getting a divorce or pregnant before you knew it because they could track your purchases and so forth. Its that kind of thing where youre, like, whoa that is just mindblowing. But and, look, it is scary, yes. But part of what we need to do is figure out the line on privacy moves. Im not saying we should accept everything, but it does move, right. So, for example, the fact people can take pictures of us and post them online now and when youre walking into the office somebody can do that, and that happens, and initially it was really creepy, and now its, ah, somebody took a picture of me walking into the building, okay, fine. Rose i know. If you have the least bit of public recognition, you can be standing anywhere, and somebody will come up, i may be talking to you, and somebody would walk into where we are and click as if thats their privilege, but thats the world we live in and eveneds got a camera. Its creepy but not threatening. Rose thank you so much. Great to see you. Great to see you. Rose reid hoffman of linkedin. Back in a moment. Rose 25 years ago today in 1991, we began this television program, and we had a Mission Statement about what we wanted to accomplish. In that Mission Statement was a promise to you. I hope ive kept that promise. Weve worked hard to make conversation with the most interesting people and the most interesting stories a central part of what we do to better understand who we are and where were going. Here is what i said then, 25 years ago. We start today the final leg of our countdown to september 30th. As we begin the journey together, we share a passion for excellence, a thirst for understanding, a respect for intelligence, and a commitment to quality journalism. That plus a storytellers craft and a poits language will get us the applause of our audience, approval of our critics and the solicitation of our peers. Our mission is quality, range, width, passion and caring for our work, for our audiences and for ourselves. Our means are to maintain our focus, reinforce each other and demand the best. Donnahueeth of 60 minutes always said he has a forward explanation for the success of 60 minutes, tell a good story. What any 60 minutes viewer knows is that they tell the story through great interviews. At the essence of any good story is a dramatic, compelling interview. It is as central to good storytelling as dialogue is to good play writing. It is through that journalistic endeavor the interview that we will make our mark. Through the craft of the interview, we will engage people about their lives, work, hopes and dreams and, through the expansion of the interview, we will explore our conflicts and failures as a community. We want our interviews to have life, independent massy, humor, texture and soul, to be evocative of peoples memories and dreams, cherish moments and deep misgivings, to be genuine and unembarrassed about our curiosity about people and what makes meme tick, to celebrate talent, craft and performance, to reflect intelligence, preparation and spontaneity, to be open to the experience, to engage at different speeds, sometimes evoctive, sometimes reflective, sometimes aggressive and always curious. And for our show, we also set tough standards to be timely and newsworthy, quick to react and use our live position to tell the audience something they did not know, to be competitive in the pursuit of guests and stories, to be a place for a defining interview, to be a companion for the end of the day, to be unafraid to confront controversy and fear, to stand for intelligence and quality, to have an attitude that says open, flexible and responsive, to avoid pretentious and pandering, to rarely bore and to always have fun. That was our promise to you. Weve done our best, and i hope you have enjoyed this journey as much as we have, and i promise to you this evening is to continue, to the best of our ability. Thank you.
