American schools to prepare for the worst. We are hands on with the new iphone. And Artificial Intelligence meets its greatest challenge. In the 19805. siren sounds we have one party down. In the united states, Mass Shootings are something that occur with depressing regularity. Libraries, churches, cinemas, and schools. All locations of acts of mass murder. Often perpetrated by one individual, with powerful military style weapons. In the last four years there have been more than 200 Mass Shootings in schools alone in the united states. The Deadliest School shooting ever was in 2012 in sandy hook elementary school, where 20 children and six staff were murdered by a lone gunmen. It made headlines across the globe. And so to help prepare for the next time, authorities have turned to technology that is normally used in video games, to help train emergency ciews video games, to help train emergency crews and even teachers to be ready to respond. Just a warning, you mightfind to respond. Just a warning, you might find some of the images in this film distressing. At least one person has been shot. Hundreds of people just person has been shot. Hundreds of peoplejust running person has been shot. Hundreds of people just running around. Person has been shot. Hundreds of people just running around. Ij person has been shot. Hundreds of peoplejust running around. I am frightened, and i know that my constituents of the most part are frightened. We have a weapon, he has shot. Unfortunately these actors shooting situations, particularly in schools, are not going away any time 0011. Schools, are not going away any time soon. Youll see in schools, they do more fire alarm drills than they do active shooter drills. Thats changing now in some schools. The most changing now in some schools. The m ost rece nt changing now in some schools. The most recent School Shooting in the us wasjust a most recent School Shooting in the us was just a few days ago, in spokane, washington. A High School Student died confronting this shooter. The department of Homeland Security is try to do something about these events. There have been about these events. There have been a lot of copycats that have necessitated First Responders getting more prepared to respond to these kind of attacks. So its created a simulation to help train First Responders to what it calls active shooter attacks. The simulator is called the enhanced dynamic geo social environment or edge is assured. It is a video game thatis edge is assured. It is a video game that is very similar to popular first person shooters. Using a pc tea m first person shooters. Using a pc team of First Responders can Work Together to resolve active shooting incident in a hotel. Fire teams put out blazers, paramedics treat the injured and cost deal with the bad quy injured and cost deal with the bad guy. Police. 0rlando injured and cost deal with the bad guy. Police. Orlando in florida isa hub guy. Police. Orlando in florida is a hub of serious simulation and training activity. Teams here create an advanced simulations including using an animatronics to teach medicated deal with soldiers injured by ied s. This facility as part of the Army Research labs. They are primarily concerned with Building Research and training. The military. It is the birthplace of the edge system which we can see three year. Through here. Designed in conjunction with simulation specialists cole engineering, the research lab has used the unreal engine, to create its environments. 0ne engine, to create its environments. One of the reasons we connected with the department of Homeland Security is that we have a lot of experience in the simulation world. One thing that we have been moving towards is the use of game technology, to provide those capabilities that traditional simulations did in the past. Time to try edge to myself. I can play as a firefighter or medic, but i would choose to play as a cop. To make the training is useful as possible, the act in shooter is played by a human being. This produces a number that will element that an Artificial Intelligence would find difficult to replicate. Unpredictable element. This feels like an ordinary videogame rep graphically and the way it plays. Actual First Responders would play this game, applying their real tactics and procedures to the situation. I can see the bad guy. I will fight fire with him now. I managed to take him down. While the hotel might feel like playing in a normal video game, the team here has been working on a new environment, one with far more chilling connotations. A school. When there isa connotations. A school. When there is a School Shooting it is com pletely is a School Shooting it is completely different than when there is other types of soft targets hit. And its very different than a traditional, if you have an active shooter that at all or a theatre or someone shooter that at all or a theatre or someone like that. And new Playable Character has been introduced into the school environment. As well as cops, the player can take the role ofa cops, the player can take the role of a teacher. An active Shooter Eventin of a teacher. An active Shooter Event in a school, has it been discovered then that by the time more enforcement arrive, the event is over, that the shooter has killed people in the school . Thats correct. Basically the teacher is almost the first line of defence for the students, to stay safe. So i have spawned in and i am a teacher ina have spawned in and i am a teacher in a classroom. Here are my kids, i can definitely hear gunfire. I have a list of instructions that i can give to the kids, in this instance i think the safest thing to do is tell them to get out of the school completely. This class has windows. I have barricaded the door to the classroom, you i have barricaded the door to the classroom , you can i have barricaded the door to the classroom, you can see the shooter outside, he is shooting at the barricade, i have evacuated all of my pupils in the classroom. My class has survived, but the experience is an unpleasant one. This is definitely not feeling like i am playing a game. To my final experience with edge, i tried a role of the person conducting the training. This means i have to play as the school shooter. We work with specialists in this, and we have also talk to people from sandy hook, we have studied incidents at multiple schools. If anything it seems really quite horrible, shooting innocent, at arm s children. It really is quite an unpleasant experience. Unarm. Children. It really is quite an unpleasant experience. Unarmlj have to admit this was very difficult work for us, most of us have children, and to dig deep and understand what type of stimulus teachers are going to get from an event like this, what are they going to see, what are they going to hear. Im actually hoping that the cops turn up quite soon, to be brutally honest. Can you bring the cops in . Yeah. What has been the reaction from the world at large to the notion that an Army Research lab is building Simulation Software to assist Law Enforcement to deal with School Shootings . Honestly, it is mixed. We have some people who are very concerned that if we have a scenario like this, it allows people to train to attack the school. The truth is, thats impossible. The scenario is complete in trolled com pletely scenario is complete in trolled completely controlled, so that only the people who administer the game can invite people into the scenario. Homeland security is securely making the system available First Responders, and soon teachers, for three top while 0rlando is home to the arl, it also knows the carnage they can be wrought by a lone gunmen. This is pulse, it was a gay nightclub. Last year it was the sight of americas deadliest shooting. A lone gunmen armed with a pistol and an assault style rifle killed 49 people here. In the wake of the pulse shooting, Florida State senator Linda Stewart tried to introduce a bill limiting the sale of new assault style weapons and large capacity magazines. The bill did not pass. Homeland security has commissioned this Simulation Software, which is to train First Responders and Law Enforcement, in how to deal with active shooter situations. What you think about that bit of software . I think its absolutely necessary. I think that the more hands on, or the more information that people who are having to respond have, the better they will be able to respond in real time. They will be able to respond in realtime. In the meantime Homeland Security is hoping to create more environments for edge, eventually building a generic town for virtual training. I dont think we can necessarily stop these events, but hopefully we can reduce the number or the severity of these attacks. Hello, and welcome to the week in tech. This was the week that apple launched a new phone 02, mohr later in the show. The two year legal battle over the ownership of a monkeys selfie finally ended. Long story short, it is not the monkeys photo. The department of Homeland Security in the us has ordered all departments to stop using software from kaspersky, after potential ties to russian intelligence services. The compa nys founder to russian intelligence services. The companys founder has denied any connections, and says they co operate with authorities are other well. Sd printer structure has been shown that can fold itself up without the aid of heat or water. The team behind the structures believe it can be used to great printable robots. And speaking of robots, six month after its debut in california restaurant, an ai burger flipper has apparently done so well it will be rolled out to over 50 other fast food locations in the states. It uses cameras and sensors to see the world around it, and a p pa re ntly to see the world around it, and apparently cooks the perfect burger everytime. And of all thejobs apparently cooks the perfect burger everytime. And of all the jobs we thought robots would take, classical conductor was brewing time a list. However that is exactly what happened when this robot conducted Andre Bocelli and this orchestra. The robot can only repeat the movement of a maestro, and cannot respond to spontaneous tone or change in music. That it was onlyjust over ten years ago that stevejobs said this. That it was onlyjust over ten years ago that steve jobs said this. And ipod, iphone, and we are calling it iphone. The iphone did something no smartphone had done before. It really brought the internet into our pockets with its high quality, big touchscreen, a good browser and that great idea of pinch and zoom. It kickstarted a new generation of smartphones. It defines the look that every other make up smartphone still adheres to and in the process it made apple the most valuable company in the world. So when a new iphone arrives, world pays attention. We did too. David lee was there. Say hello to apple park, or there. Say hello to apple park, or the spaceship, several calls it. Eventually, 12,000 people will work on this 175 acre site. It was designed by british architect Norman Foster and cost a reported 5 billion which makes it the most expensive building in america. Their headquarters is in many respects the last great project from steve jobs. This was his final appearance in public before he died. 0ne this was his final appearance in public before he died. One last launch not for a device, but for a building. So its curved all the way around. You know if you build things, this is not the cheapest way. There is not a straight piece of glass in this building. Six years later i am among those piling into the steve jobs theatre, later i am among those piling into the stevejobs theatre, a purpose built venue for the kind of product launches that he made his trademark. You wonder what he would have made of the latest iphone. New facial Recognition Software means you can unlock the device just by looking at it, a system that replaces the fingerprint sensor in previous iphones. After a bit of a mishap, apples craig federicchi got it working. And this might be the most ridiculous orfine it working. And this might be the most ridiculous or fine use of Sophisticated Technology ever. Its a happy punpy Sophisticated Technology ever. Its a happy puppy. Check out the physics of the years. Animated emojis track my facial expressions to power the emoji with different expressions. This makes me laugh. I can be this big and heavy smiles, it smiles, and it might raise my eyebrows and puff my cheeks, it does that. At 999 or £999, the iphone ten does not come cheap which is why apple is also bringing outan cheap which is why apple is also bringing out an iphone eight and eight plus, a more incremental upgrade on last years models. And for the first time for an apple smartphone, it can be charged wirelessly, something samsung, it has to be said, has offered since 2015. The iphone eight pluss camera offers a way to artificially change the lighting on the picture which it does by using the two lenses on the back to digitally simulate different lighting conditions and the apple watch has been given a significant upgrade. It now has its own Cellular Connection built in which means you dont need to take your phone with you in orderfor the dont need to take your phone with you in order for the watch to work. It is sales of the iphone which have made apple the huge, huge company adheres and the new hq made apple the huge, huge company adheres and the new h0 is a permanent reminder of the companys enormous power. Will the iphone ten continued success into another decade . Apple seems confident but then again, they might be talking with a emoji. If you wonder what humanity would do it given access to the most advanced facial technology tracking technology available, you now have your answer. This coding school in paris has no teachers, no syllabus, no hours and no fees. So what does it have . Ecole 42 was created in funded by a french billionaire and entrepreneur xavier mille. He felt the french Education System could do better so he created this paste this place for18 he created this paste this place for 18 and s0 year olds to study coding, and effectively teaching themselves. This was a concept he already launched in san francisco. It was a mix of several methods, what was done and implement it in the finnish educational system. It was very much searched and researched and it is a model that has been tested and implemented here. Land in place on the course is the first challenge. 50,000 applicants get whittled down to sooo for what they call that the macro the la piscine state which doesnt involve swimming, but a metaphorical trial over whether they will sink or swim. 0nly up to 900 will make the grade. On the first day, we dont tell them anything or give them anything. They have to figure out what to do, they have to go find a room, how to work. Those taking part dont even know what they need to do to impress but they are aware that its their peers assessing them. There is no lectures, essays. You dont quite know the information so it takes a lot of trial and error but it forces you to speak to your peers is that there is a lot of exercises and working with your colleagues. It is really a 2way thing. Its notjust me asking them to help thats learning to all of my questions. Ive seen some people who come here just for fun and funny is not why we are here, we are here to work and improve. It seems to be a friendly place. Far more sociable than i expected. What are the main aims here is an educational meritocracy giving everyone no matter what their background and achievements to date equal opportunity and for that reason, a place to sleep is available. While undertaking the course trials, some may just use it undertaking the course trials, some mayjust use it for a nap in the day but others could be stating there throughout the four weeks. A lot of the work happens between 2am and sam in the morning and the place is quite busy. For me, because i dont have a salary, it is good to stay in here. But for those who make it onto the full course, 80 gain employment while still studying with 100 getting jobs by the end. While still studying with 100 getting jobs by the endlj while still studying with 100 getting jobs by the end. I think the really special thing about the school is the ecosystem where everybody who comes here is super ambitious and super motivated and being surrounded by people who have that kind of mindset really pushes you to perform better in life. Its amazing what you can achieve when you teach yourself. And thats also true when a computer doing the learning. Artificial intelligence has been making Great Strides recently and some of it has involved something that would have been frowned on here. Video games. But the truth is, games can actually be very educational. For us, but also for machines, because they are being used to train Artificial Intelligence is to solve problems. They are there are simpler veide environments are ideal. They have small sets of rules and commands, the scoring makes it easy to judge how well be ai has done and problems can be played out over and over again. Different types of games can train and ai in different ways. For example, this is go, boardgame with simple rules but it has so many pos
