Judges order was for arrest warrants to be served, not a mass killing. And yet there was a mass killing. I think it's important to verify the circumstances under which it took place. The hard fact is that in terms of the death toll, some may see the operation as a success. But from the standpoint of state action, I believe it was disastrous.
He described it as a massacre and said an investigation was needed to verify the conditions under which it occurred. He was speaking in the Amazon city of Belém, where Brazil is about to gather world leaders for the COP30 climate summit. Ioni Wells. An American man who faked his own death and fled to Scotland after being accused of rape has been sentenced to at least seven years in prison in the US state of Utah.
America's tech giants, Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Meta, have collectively invested hundreds of billions of dollars this year into artificial intelligence, specifically into new data centers needed to power what they're calling a fourth industrial revolution.
It's largely responsible for most of America's GDP growth this year. But can it last? In the last few weeks, a growing number of the world's leading figures in finance have suggested that AI stocks are unrealistically inflated in value. Could this be turning into a massive economic bubble, at risk of bursting, and threatening the global economy? Ed Butler's been hearing the arguments from some who are concerned.
As everyone in Silicon Valley remembers, we have been here before. This was March 2000, when many of the first generation of heavily backed internet firms were swamped in an avalanche of red as investors lost faith. Five trillion dollars were wiped off the US tech index over two years.
As shares crumbled. Professor of finance John Danielson at the London School of Economics has made a career out of studying economic bubbles. He says that new technologies have a way of attracting too much hype and investment. What happens is we all get swept up in the bubble. Prices go up, we buy and we get wealthier and that makes us feel smart and makes us feel rich. It validates our beliefs about ourselves.
Joka kerta, kun meillÀ on hienoja uusia teknologioita, tiedÀmme, ettÀ jotkut yritykset tulevat olemaan huonosti rikkoja. Jotkut yritykset tulevat omistamaan tÀmÀn alueen. Ja tietenkin se tarkoittaa, ettÀ paljon ihmisiÀ haluaa olla osa sitÀ. Joten me yritÀmme nÀhdÀ vahvistelijaa, mutta tietenkin useimmat teemme ison ongelman. AI-jÀrjestelmÀllÀ jotkut tulevat dominoimaan tÀtÀ vuosien ja kuukausien jÀlkeen. Ollaanko ne nykyiset yritykset? MinÀ tavallaan yllÀtÀn sitÀ.
While artificial intelligence technology offers world-changing promise, critics say the actual economic returns are still unproven. Already eye-watering sums, hundreds of billions of dollars, have been committed to new projects like this data center in Louisiana.
Total AI investment could reach $5 trillion by 2030, but for now it's estimated that 95% of companies currently trying to deploy AI are not actually seeing any profit from it. Of course, not everyone's a pessimist.
Katsotaanpa, olen sovittanut tekstikkoja 90-luvulla, ja tÀmÀ ei ole jÀrjestelmÀ. TÀmÀ on jÀrjestelmÀkysymys, jota emme ole koskaan nÀhneet. Investoinnin ja AI-enthusiastin Dan Ives, joka kÀrsii nÀisÀisiÀ, kuten hÀn kutsuu heidÀt.
Whichever side you're on in this debate, the problem is partly the complex nature of the financing of some of the new investments. Tech giants are pumping billions into each other right now to support the sector's growth. And that makes it hard to identify what, if anything, is genuinely profitable. The confusion is neatly summarised by the BBC's North America technology correspondent, Lily Jamali.
Like every bubble, it's hard to know when you're in one until it's popped. I think that's why there's so much trepidation around Silicon Valley right now. The BBC's Lily Jamali ending that report by Ed Butler. And you can hear more on that story on Business Daily, wherever you get your BBC podcasts.
And finally, they are some of the most celebrated areas of real estate in the French capital Paris. And now the city's residents are being offered a chance to occupy their own part of them. I'm talking about three of the most famous and most overcrowded cemeteries, including PĂšre Lachaise, the resting place for such artistic superstars as the singers Edith Piaf, Jim Morrison, the playwright Oscar Wilde and the writer Marcel Proust.
The city of Paris has launched a lottery which will give winners the chance to pay for repairs to existing graves and monuments in exchange for the chance to be buried alongside such starry company. Simon Cooper, a Paris-based journalist for the Financial Times, explained to my colleague Tim Franks why these cemeteries are so revered.
Luulen, ettÀ heidÀt kÀsittelevÀt suurin piirtein ihmisiin, jotka ovat niissÀ. Pela Chairs, joka on suurin piirtein suomalainen, on Suomessa suomalaiset Jim Morrison ja Oscar Wilde, mutta myös Edith Piaf, Marcel Proust, Balzac ja niin monia eri ihmisiÀ.
ja Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir ja niin edelleen. Ja myös nÀmÀ ovat erittÀin kaunisia paikkoja. Euroopassa ne ovat suurimpia paikkoja, joissa voidaan kÀydÀ paikkoja. Ja vaikka ne ovat paikkoja, ne ovat erittÀin hyviÀ paikkoja. HyviÀ paikkoja, mutta myös niiden monissa osassa ne ovat melko suomalaisia, eikö?
KyllÀ, koska asioiden onnistuminen on niin, ettÀ kouluja kuolee tai he jÀtetÀÀn rikkojen jÀlkeen tai vuoden jÀlkeen. MeillÀ on paljon rikkoja, kuten melkein kaikkia rikkoja, joita ei voi lukea kirjoituksista, jotka ovat olleet hyvin rikkoja. Joten sitten rikko on huomioitunut ja voidaan poistaa ja muuttaa, mutta se on melko burokraattinen haaste. Se on todennÀköisesti melko iso tehtÀvÀ poistaa jokaisen ilmaisuuden.
Joten seuraavaksi, mitÀ ajattelet Pariisista tÀmÀn suunnitelman parissa? Olen varma, ettÀ Pariisit, jotka ovat erittÀin yllÀttÀneitÀ kaupungista, ovat yllÀttÀneitÀ nÀistÀ sementtejÀ. Ajatteletko, ettÀ se on hyvÀ idea, ettÀ ihmiset, jotka todennÀköisesti tarvitsevat paljon rahaa, voivat saada tehdÀ tÀmÀn?
Ja saada mahdollisuuden mennÀ lotteriaan, pahoittaa oikeuden tekemÀÀn olemassa olevaa dilapidaattoria kriisiÀ, mutta myös saada oikeuden olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa olemassa
