1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Gandhi breaks down everything going on in the world. Here's 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: her three things. Twitter is now worth only one third 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 1: of what Elon Musk paid for it just seven months ago. 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 1: That's according to the investment management firm Fidelity. The valuation 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: is about eight point eight billion dollars. That's down from 6 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: the forty four billion he purchased it for in October 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two. Now some are voicing their concern 8 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: that Elon Musk may take the digital service down in 9 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: Europe altogether. Apparently, he's pulled out of the European Union's 10 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 1: Voluntary Code of Practice regarding online disinformation. Some say it's 11 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: proof that he will shut the platform down in Europe. 12 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: The Digital Services Act makes the voluntary code mandatory for 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: large platforms like Twitter to be monitored and flagged for disinformation. 14 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: The law goes into effect August twenty fifth. And how 15 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: crazy is this? Scientists believe that they have discovered a 16 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: way to use ultrasounds to put mice and rats into hibernation. 17 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: They think the method could be used to put humans 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: into the same state. Apparently, the method reduced the rodent's 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: average body temperature over six degrees, slowed their heart rate, 20 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: and reduce their oxygen consumption. While researchers say the process 21 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: could have medical uses, others say it could be used 22 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 1: to make a trip to Mars easier to manage four astronauts. 23 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: Of course, more research still needs to be done. Researchers 24 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: say specifically that we must first make sure we know 25 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: how to return them back home intact. And finally, if 26 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: you've been worried about AI, it looks like there's a 27 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: good reason for that. A group of high level scientists 28 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,919 Speaker 1: and tech leaders signed off on a new warning about 29 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: artificial intelligence yesterday. They say the advancement could threaten the 30 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: existence of the human race all together. That statement was 31 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: just twenty one words long, and the group said that 32 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: was on purpose. The statement actually reads, quote, Mitigating the 33 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: along other societal skill risks such as pandemics and nuclear war. 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: Just think about that one today. I hope you're having 36 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: a great day. I'm Gandhi, and those are your three things.
