But now prosecuting authorities are looking at evidence submitted by The Brothers last year which claimed they were sexually abused by their father and acted in self defence. The case has attracted renewed attention partly because its a Hit Series on netflix. A documentary on the Case Due to be released next week promises to delve deeper into the case. Lets hear now from the Los Angeles District attorney. What i want to make very clear we have not conceded one way or the other, we are not saying there was anything wrong with the original trial. We have been given evidence, none of this information has been confirmed, we, at this point are not ready to say that we either believe or do not believe that information. This is the reaction from the menendez� brothers� attorney. I think its time, their family think its time. I believe what you saw today from District Attorney gascon that he has taken, i think a rather bold step in that he has said, he will make the final decision. It may not be a popular decision in prosecutorial circles, but i would think that in our culture, we have come a long way in the last ten years, maybe 15 years. Lets speak more on this with our news reporter, Samantha Granville whos in Los Angeles. This claim of Sexual Abuse was presented at their first trial, but largely witheld from the second trial when they were sentenced to Life In Prison Without Parole . The first trial ended in a Hung Jury the first trial ended in a Hung Jury so it went to the second where thejudge had ruled we were not going to use any of the allegations of abuse in the trial. That is when the boys were convicted and put into prison without parole. The whole case that the menendez brothers went in on is our parents sexually abused as, violently for years and we were scared of retribution from them so we cannot do anything about it. We were scared they would kill less, to be frank. So their case relied on these allegations of Sexual Abuse and for it to be taken out of the trial they say was not fair and since they have been put in jail 35 years ago, they have been fighting it. Jail 35 years ago, they have been fighting it. What happens next, it will been fighting it. What happens next, it will be been fighting it. What happens next, it will be under been fighting it. What happens next, it will be under review i next, it will be under review and how long will it take . The Los Angeles and how long will it take . Tue Los Angeles District and how long will it take . Tte Los Angeles District attorneys said he would hand the keys over to his team of lawyers so over to his team of lawyers so over the next few weeks they will go over all of the new evidence that has come in and presented to a judge at The End of november who will then decide the fate of The Brothers, but it is up to the office of the da to see whether or not they think the evidence isnt real and can help The Brothers be released from prison early. Prison early. Just briefly, this is attracted prison early. Just briefly, this is attracted so prison early. Just briefly, this is attracted so much| this is attracted so much attention partly, because as i said, it is a Netflix Sensation at the moment, this drama about The Brothers.

When i was watching the Press Conference Yesterday i was watching on instagram life and normally when you watch Ata Press Conference you maybe get a couple of hundred of viewers but there were thousands of people tuning in and commenting, justice for the menendez brothers, Prison Reform needs help, so it was very popular. Also Reality Star Kim Kardashianjumped in Kim Kardashian jumped in publishing Kim Kardashianjumped in Publishing And Article is facing The Brothers were not monsters but it was a nuanced case that deals with Sexual Abuse, Child Molestation and that it needs to be looked at again because we may have viewed it differently had the boys been girls and saying they were abused by their parents.

From what i recall, i was a couege from what i recall, i was a College Student in 1989 and it was a big deal, but there was a different coverage on it from what i recall. I think we as a society, wed be here allegations of Sexual Abuse now, we are a bit more open to understanding it. Iwould venture to say in 1989, those types of allegations were seen as something you would not have talked about or something you would sweep under the rug. In that case, it does to questions about, when society changes, how do we view legal proceedings . Sign fascinated by it. ,. , proceedings . Sign fascinated by it. Leon, are you fascinated . Im.

Around the world and across the uk. This is bbc news. Google has introduced a new way to search the Internet Users can simply point their camera at something, record a short clip, ask a question about it and then get the search results. Its googles latest attempt to incorporate Artificial Intelligence into its search functions. Google has dismissed concerns about its ai coming up with wildly incorrect answers, saying that results are getting better all the time. Google is facing growing competition, including from openai, the maker of chatgpt, which is trialling the ability to search by asking its chatbot questions. Heres an example of what the new Search Feature can do. He asks the question, and, in seconds google replies with the specific Watering Frequency of the plants in the video. All very clever. Lets return to our panel tonight. Leon, is that something that you would be tempted to use, that functionality . Absolutely. It looks like functionality . Absolutely. It looks like impressive looks like impressive technology. This is google, for the first technology. This is google, for the first in technology. This is google, for the first in a long time, their stranglehold over search has been stranglehold over search has been challenged as a direct result been challenged as a direct result of Artificial Intelligence and competitors in that market so in many ways googie that market so in many Ways Google are playing Catch Up to integrate Artificial Intelligence into their Search Product Intelligence into their search product. We can see the technology is clearly very impressive, but the question is, are impressive, but the question is, are us impressive, but the question is, are us consumers who are so used is, are us consumers who are so used to is, are us consumers who are so used to using our phones, using search used to using our phones, using Search In used to using our phones, using Search In The Way we have over the past Search In The Way we have over the past decade or more, are we going the past decade or more, are we going to the past decade or more, are we going to change our habits overnight to now start using Video Overnight to now start using video as overnight to now start using video as part of our Search Habits .

Im not it sure it will happen in the short term and i think happen in the short term and i think it happen in the short term and i think it is happen in the short term and i think it is all part of a long Term Play in Silicon Valley long Term Play in Silicon Valley which is who can become the dominant force in Artificial Intelligence in this is the Artificial Intelligence in this is the latest attempt for google to do so. But i am sure openai, google to do so. But i am sure openai, the makers of chatgpt and others will be hot on their heels and others will be hot on their heels to and others will be hot on their heels to knock them off of the Perch Heels to knock them off of the perch of heels to knock them off of the perch of top Search Engine in the world. Do perch of top Search Engine in the world the world. Do you find all of this potentially the world. Do you find all of this potentially useful the world.

Yes, to the point of leon, this is the point of leon, this is the thing with technology, i have to learn to search again . I already know how to search. You raise the question of the accuracy of ai, as a journalist we are constantly Fact Checking and obviously Google Search is part of our toolset. I dont even, i read some of those ai generated Search Terms at the top and, i am like, its wrong its wrong. Thats the part where google is like, well, you know, we are getting better at this, even chatgpt are like, we are not really good at this yet, but you should use this because we are the future. That is what concerns me because when we have the habits but we dont have the critical skills to determine what is accurate in what is not, especially in this age of disinformation with the political campaigns, im sure the uk is similar to the united states where there is so much a coming out in the campaigns that you dont know what is real or not any more. And i dont know if i necessarily trust Silicon Valley to be the arbiter of what is accurate. I think this is an opportunity for search as a Public Service and it may be this is the journalism a Public Service and it may be this is thejournalism in me getting curmudgeon, i am getting curmudgeon, i am getting old, give me a typewriter, imjust getting old, give me a typewriter, im just not buying it yet. But to go in and video and ask, what to feed your two month old, that is where it gets scary to me. Tm twomonthold, that is where it gets scary to me gets scary to me. Im old enough gets scary to me. Im old enough to gets scary to me. Im old enough to remember gets scary to me. Im old l enough to remember using gets scary to me. Im old enough to remember using his typewriter, i am sure you dont. Leon, what is your view on Artificial Intelligence, there is so much debate on whether it is something to be scared of or a huge opportunity we should be embracing, what is your take on it . T we should be embracing, what is your take on it . Your take on it . I class myself as an actor your take on it . I class myself as an actor optimist, your take on it . I class myself as an actor optimist, i your take on it . I class myself as an actor optimist, i think. As an actor optimist, think artificial as an actor optimist, i think Artificial Intelligence is going Artificial Intelligence is going to transform how we do business going to transform how we do business and how we interact with business and how we interact with technology on a whole and it is an with technology on a whole and it is an exciting time for that technology ai optimist. Governments around the world did you governments around the world did you have a clear set of regulations and a framework as to how regulations and a framework as to how Artificial Intelligence is deployed. One of the big problems is we have seen governments around the world only governments around the world oniyiust governments around the World Onlyjust about get up to grips with onlyjust about get up to grips with Social Media. That is how technologically literate, a lot of political leaders are, that it feels of political leaders are, that it feels as though by the time ai becomes as advanced as it is going ai becomes as advanced as it is going to ai becomes as advanced as it is going to be, perhaps it is too late going to be, perhaps it is too late in going to be, perhaps it is too late in the going to be, perhaps it is too late in the genie is out of the bottle and you start to have some bottle and you start to have some of bottle and you start to have some of those more Dystopian Visions some of those more Dystopian Visions of some of those more Dystopian Visions of what ai can turn out to He Visions of what ai can turn out to he i visions of what ai can turn out to be.

They are not young, they are not | are not young, they are not digital natives, im sorry. There is no other way to put it. There are a lot of great things a can do, i use it for copy editing. I dont have Copy Editors in the work that i do so it is my proofreading department and i tell chatgpt, hey, you know, you need to copy edit this and follow Ap Style and it there is something powerful telling someone do this or else and they deliver. So i think it will make us more efficient, it will make us focus more on our creativity and we can do a lot more of the Brain Work and ai takes over the things that we dont want to do. Im with you, i am in and it is wonderful to have especially when you were starting a new nonprofit News Company like mine, i dont have to hire Copy Editors, i have one called jake chatgpt. That is at the impact one called jake chatgpt. That is at the impact on one called jake chatgpt. That is at the impact on the one called jake chatgpt. That is at the impact on the jobs market. Thank you for that, gentlemen now it is time for the panel. Leon, you have news of another technological breakthrough you want to talk to us about. We are sticking want to talk to us about.

I think facial recognition. think that facial recognition. think that is facial recognition. I think that is scary. August of this is not that is scary.

Hello. For many of us, friday was a pretty mild day thanks to the south to south Easterly Winds. The best of the sunshine was across england and wales. We had a top temperature of 18 degrees around the london area, but for scotland and northern ireland, there was a lot more cloud and that has been bringing outbreaks of rain over recent hours. Now on the satellite picture, you can see the Weather Front thats bringing that zone of cloudier weather to the North West of the uk. A strong Jet Stream continues to develop this weather system, and its going to be bringing some very Heavy Rain into the republic of ireland, where theres probably going to be some flooding across southern areas. The front itself is very slow moving, so over the next few hours were going to keep the largely clear skies across england and wales. One or two Fog Patches possible in the east, where temperatures could dip as low as about three or four degrees in the coldest spots. But across the North West of the uk, temperatures staying up into double figures. Because weve got that cloud, theres a fair breeze around here, but we also have a bit of rain to come as well. Now heading into the first part of saturday, there will be some pulses of Heavy Rain that works into northern ireland. The rain tending to come and go, so there might be some brighter spells for the afternoon here. Rain at times, too, for western and northern areas of scotland, but away from that for eastern and southern scotland, for the bulk of eastern wales and all of england, really, should be a fine and a dry day with plenty of sunshine. Its going to be another mild one. Top temperatures could hit 18 degrees once again. Now these Weather Fronts will then push eastwards through saturday night, weakening as they run into our area of high pressure to the east, so just a few patches of light rain. There will be some damp weather, then, for some as we start off sunday morning, but weve got a more pronounced band of heavier rain that through the afternoon will spread into northern ireland. This time, wales and south West England getting a bit of a soaking, too. The south to south Easterly Winds continue to drag up the milder air, so temperatures above average for most. Looking at around 17 in london and cardiff and about 1k for edinburgh. Then into next week, this area of low pressure is going to continue to fire showers or some longer spells of rain across the uk. Meanwhile, a low pressure perhaps to our south contains the remnants of hurricane kirk. Well, that could bring some very strong winds to parts of western europe. Western france looking vulnerable at the moment. But here in the uk, its an unsettled looking week, quite windy at times, with showers or longer spells of rain next week. Bye bye. Tonight at ten, irans supreme leader defends his Countrys Missile Strike on israel earlier this week. In a rare speech, leading friday prayers, Ayatollah Khamenei called it minimum punishment for israels actions. As israel carries out more strikes on lebanon, israeli forces continue to battle hezbollah on its northern border. Now you can hear the sirens are going off, telling us to get out of the area. Blasts, siren wails. And with the first anniversary of the Hamas Attack on israel approaching, well report from a Military Base on the border with gaza which was overrun that day and how warnings were ignored. Also on the programme. A Police Officer is charged over the death of an 81 year old woman killed in a collision with a motorcycle that was part of a royal escort
