A uk Government Spokesperson has confirmed that a Royal Air ForcePlane Carrying the defence secretary grant shapps had its signaljammed as it flew near the russian territory of kaliningrad this week. This image, released by the ministry of defence, shows mr schapps on the plane during the journey in question. The electronic interference is understood to have happened on wednesday evening. Mobile phones could no longer connect to the internet and the aircraft was forced to use alternative methods to determine its location. The uk government says it isnt unusual for aircraft to experience this when flying near the russian territory. Heres our Diplomatic Correspondent paul adams. Can we start with the significance of the place they were, kaliningrad, the most Westerly Point On Russian Territory was to mark its important to look at the map because. Its to look at the map because. Its important to look at the map because. Its important to to look at the map because. It� s important to look at the map because kaliningrad is what it is all about, the Plane Carrying grant shapps and a Small Company parted took off from any polish airfield a short distance south of that, an area of russia the colleton exclusive, a fragment of russia separated from the rest of russia, as you can see, by belarus and lithuania. It is an area of great strategic importance, part of russias axis of the baltic see and it is an area thought to be home of some of russias Nuclear Missiles and let us not forget what is happening in the last 12 months. Sweden and finland have both become members of nato, turning the Baltic Into A Neato back yard, so kaliningrad becomes even more significant for the russians and it is thought that they have significant Electronic Warfare capabilities stationed in kaliningrad as part of air defence measures designed to protect them against any incoming threats they would perceive from nato. And grant shapps a month to complete the picture, was returning from the airfield close to the border from one of the largest nato exercises to take place in recent years, so i think that is the context in which this episode took place. It is part of a wider pattern of russian electronic interference in notjust military traffic, and this was kind of a hybrid, the plane was at raf plane but it was a corporate jet, but the russians are using this kind of mechanism to interfere with military and commercial traffic, both in the air and at sea. That is a cause of concern. To both in the air and at sea. That is a cause of concern. Both in the air and at sea. That is a cause of concern. To protect their assets. A cause of concern.

Im quite sure they knew secretary was on board. Im quite sure they knew the secretary was on board. Im quite sure they knew the defence secretary was on board. Im quite sure they knew the defence secretary was on board and maybe they felt missing her around with his light in not albeit harmless way would cause some irritation, that was for them to the good, but again this was a flight coming in re flight, close to kaliningrad in an environment in which the russians are not routine any using Electronic Warfare to mess with commercial and military flights. Its also a mechanism, a tactic, they are using to great effect in ukraine. Part of their ability to turn the tide of the word there. Electronic warfare, the ability to jam the signals both for manned aircraft and drones and all manner of weaponry, is a key part of modern warfare. Manner of weaponry, is a key part of modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul, all is well modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul, all is well that modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul, all is well that ends modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul, all is well that ends well modern warfare. Thank you very much, paul, all is well that ends well but paul, all is well that ends well but clearly slightly unnerving if all the instruments went off and you are flying at 35,000 feet, anyway the defence secretary is back safely. A former lieutenant with east germanys secret police, the stasi, has gone on trial in germany, for allegedly shooting dead a polish man who attempted to flee to west berlin nearly 50 years ago. The 80 year old, whose name has not been officially confirmed, denied charges of murder in court today. The shooting was witnessed by a school group from west germany one of the pupils who was then in her mid teens is set to testify. The incident happened nearly 50 years ago, its come to trial in part because of new findings from the stasi archives including a medal which the defendant appears to have been awarded for his role in the suspected killing. Lets speak to katja hoyer, a german british historian and author of this weeks sunday times bestselling novel, beyond the wall. A book about east germanys history from 1949 1990. Thank you for being with us. This polish man, he was shot as he tried to escape from east berlin, and apparently had been to the bullish embassy in east berlin that day and thought he was set to go, so what happened . Thought he was set to go, so what ha ened . N. Thought he was set to go, so what hauened . , thought he was set to go, so what happened . Thought he was set to go, so what hauened . ,. , happened . According to the stasi on files, he happened . According to the stasi on files. He was happened . According to the stasi on files, he was alleged happened . According to the stasi on files, he was alleged to happened . According to the stasi on files, he was alleged to have files, he was alleged to have carried a fake bomb, basically, and threaten to ignite that unless he was allowed passage into west berlin, so a plan was made behind the scenes to pretend to let him go on it for the stasi to go and assassinated, or thats the case made by the prosecution currently. How did they track down the man who is on trial and how much work is going into the stasi archive . That was art going into the stasi archive . That was part of going into the stasi archive . That was part of the going into the stasi archive . T� isgt was part of the problem which is why it is taking 50 years, the stasi left lots of files about which you can imagine, one of the most efficient Surveillance States in history, so there are still about 70 miles or so of files, historians have direct through, and it was quite a task to find this man in the first place and piecing together the different parts of that story, including in the polish archives as well but since the victim was actually polish, so it took a white for historians to find out who this man was so that now he could be put on trial, even though he is now 70 night years old and 50 years apart. When we talk about the Second World War crimes that are investigated, lots of those who would be involved are now dead and would never have justice, but the stasi it was around much later after the Second World War, so do you suspect the more they go through these files we will get more cases like this . Part go through these files we will get more cases like this . More cases like this . Part of the roblem more cases like this . Part of the problem isnt more cases like this . Part of the problem isnt dissimilar more cases like this . Part of the problem isnt dissimilar because | problem isnt dissimilar because some of the people here were already dead, for example the deputy boss of the stasi who wouldve approved this killing according to the file and those findings actually died during the gdr era, even before the berlin wall came down, so he cannot be charged, and so the problem is the same but there are more people left. I think there was a bit of a sense there would be a cutoff point for there would be a cutoff point for the last big trials of those finish about ten years ago or so, with the last border killings being investigated, and this is a rare example of a big case that is only now coming to light. Example of a big case that is only now coming to light. Thank you for cominu in now coming to light. Thank you for coming in the now coming to light.

Hi, im nellie, im 11 years old and im from lincoln. Ive just done the english championships and in few weeks time, ive got the british championships, which is quite big for me. Yeah, its just exciting. Hi, imjojo, im13 and im from lincoln. It feels like youre flying and you just feel so much better. Hi, im lexie, im13l and im from lincoln. You just get to do flips and its amazing how fun it is. Its satisfying to know all the hours of hard work theyve put in actually comes to fruition. Weve got three qualified this year, hopefully, we can keep that going. Youre live with bbc news. You are watching the context. It is time for our our new minted segment ai decoded. Welcome to ai decoded, it is the time of the week when we dig deep into some of the most eye catching stories in the world of artificial intellligence. We begin this week with this from tech radar and a stunning achievement in humanoid robotic development. Open ai and the start up Robotics Firm figure ai have released a video this week demonstrating the real Sci Fi Capabilities of a new visual language model, and well be showing you the clip in just a minutes time the medical x press details how ai is being used to detect Heart Defects in newborns. The model they have developed gives the correct diagnosis in 80 to 90 of cases. Fortune says Artificial Intelligence is supercharging the threat of election disinformation worldwide, making it easy for anyone with a smartphone to create fake but convincing content, aimed at fooling voters. The mirror says russia is already using ai deepfakes to spread chaos in third countries, a significant threat says a new Us Intelligence report to the 2024 election. The intercept reports there is now a network ai powered autonomous surveillance towers. 1,000 of them have been put up along americas southern borders, a system that gives Border Guards a unified vision of unauthorised movement. And finally in the guardian, what does the eus new ai bill mean for us the consumers . Well give you the low down later in the programme. Sitting alongside tonight our ai commentator and Technology Author stephanie hare. Fresh back from paris, nice to see you. Lets start with the glimpse of the future that is already here, quite fascinated. A pretty remarkable example of the promise of Artificial Intelligence, lets take a look. I see a red apple on a plate in the centre of the table, a drying rack with cups and a plate, and you standing nearby with your hand on the table. Great. Can i have something to eat . Sure thing. Great. Can you explain why you did what you just did while you pick up this trash . On it. So i gave you the apple because its the only edible item i could provide you with from the table. Great. So based on the scene right now, where do you think the dishes in front of you go next . The dishes on the table like that plate and cup are likely to go into the drying rack next. Great. Can you put them there . Of course. Remarkable, isnt it . Everything i have been showing so far in the world of ai, the avatars i have seen which are on screen, they are instructed by text, the difference with this is that it is seeing and tasting and feeling its environment which blows my mind. I tasting and feeling its environment which blows my mind. Which blows my mind. I thought it was fascinating which blows my mind. I thought it was fascinating that which blows my mind. I thought it was fascinating that the which blows my mind. I thought it was fascinating that the voice, which blows my mind. I thought it was fascinating that the voice, a l was fascinating that the voice, a fake voice probably taken from real samples but melded together, but it had a vocal fight, samples but melded together, but it had a vocalfight, i often have samples but melded together, but it had a vocal fight, i often have that because i have asthma and after cough a lot, is not a pure tone but sounds hoarse, they even put that into make it sound like a real human, which is crazy.

I was in last week that one thing that human, which is crazy. I was in last week that one thing that was said l week that one thing that was said to me with someone who interacted with these models is that they feel empathy, and that is why they feel empathy, and that is why they feel empathy because the voices colloquial, as you say, it feels real, theres a slight drag and pause as it processes, but as it gets quicker, it would be the sort of thing some people prefer to hang out with. Of thing some people prefer to hang outwith. Its of thing some people prefer to hang out with. V. , of thing some people prefer to hang out with. � ,. Out with. Its an ethical question in terms of out with. Its an ethical question in terms of how out with. Its an ethical question in terms of how we out with. Its an ethical question in terms of how we design out with. Its an ethical question in terms of how we design this | in terms of how we design this robot, its a choice to make it look and sound and feel human, he doesnt have to be that way. We could design robust to be explicitly not human, other, so why they have taken someones voice, and even the accents and the grammar, is specific to the United States west coast, and the robot goes on its, and very american way of speaking which wouldnt translate globally, so im sure what you can do is i would speak with a french accent or in mentoring and do exactly that thing, to make you feel a connection to it. All of that is manipulative as well. Its called artificial general intelligence, to explain the technicals the people, normally we talk about text to speech, this is speech to speech, so as well as seeing its environment, it is able to process a bit like alexa in our kitchens, it is able to process what you are saying. Kitchens, it is able to process what you are saying kitchens, it is able to process what you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watchin you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watching it you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watching it again, you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watching it again, these you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watching it again, these are you are saying. Yes, i noticed even watching it again, these are quite i watching it again, these are quite long pauses between the Human Interrogator and the robot and the human is given really clear and short and specific instructions, so with that work well in the real world context where people are asking a robot to do something do it like human beings sometimes ask a question not clearly and get angry or frustrated with each other, how would that work . It is great, the potential is clearly there and you can imagine what would that would mean if we get the robots up and running with minimal length time, could they replace humans in certain jobs postop of course, to take that on a peg, obviously the database is growing and it is also with write and rewrite its own code so as it makes mistakes it will learn and develop.
