In the past hour, the House Of Representatives has overwhelmingly passed a bill that would give its chinese owner about six months to divest the apps american assets, or face a ban. Tiktok is one of the worlds most popular apps, with more than 170 million users in the us alone. Live now to our correspondent nomia iqbal in washington. Just start, because i know we have had the vote in the past hour but just give us a sorts of contributions they voted because American Politics is riven with partisan politics but here there is much more bipartisan agreement, isnt there . There was. And it was all very civilised and polite when various lawmakers were making their arguments in the chamber. As you said there it was passed by an overwhelming amount to, the Republican Leaders that really fast track this bill through so just to give you the numbers, 352 65 voted for it to be banned. 0f give you the numbers, 352 65 voted for it to be banned. Of course, thats not the end of it, matthew. The next ever to go to the senate where it will probably face a much tougher passage, if it will even get there but President Biden has said, if it is, it does get to the is past, he will sign it into law but tiktok has really lobbied hard for this not to happen. It is mobilised its 170 million us users to really ring up their local representatives telling them not to do this and, despite that, this has still gone through the house. There is also some confusion over here as well. President biden wants it bad that he is already banned that for his federal employees, from using it on their Mobile Phones but to his Election Campaign has started using tiktok and posting on it but at the former President Donald Trump spearheaded the whole movement to ban tiktok. Recently flip flopped on it saying, well, actually, you know, it saying, well, actually, you know, it is difficult to ban it. So i think theres a sense that they both know that obviously we are into the general Election Campaign season. They are going to alienate lots of young voters, millions and millions of teenagers to use tiktok. But as i mentioned, this is not the end of it. The next stop would be the senate. What those lawmakers want to actually see happen . They want to seem the company that owns tiktok to either sell up to somebody else or they will just ban either sell up to somebody else or they willjust ban it outright. They believe that it is the National Security risk. They think, without any evidence, so far, that the content on that is being passed over to the chinese government. And that is based on a lawyer in china were companies have to cooperate with the intelligence service. Tiktok has really pushed back at that. I was here when, at the hearing for the ceo of tiktok and he was grilled by Congress Last year about this and he denied all of that. And so they are saying, look, we had this big firewall in place which walls of any information from us users and so all of that information actually does remains in the us in service here but that is not convinced lawmakers as we have seen today. Thanks very much for that. Thank you. Thank you. The European Parliament has approved what it calls a trailblazing law on the use of artificial intelligence. The president of the parliament, roberta metsola, said the new rules balanced Tech Innovation with respect for peoples fundamental rights. She said al was already part of our daily lives, but now the eu was leading the world in regulating its power. Theres one more step to go before the eu formally adopts the legislation later this year. Ai technology, such as chat gpt, has developed at dizzying speed in recent years; governments worldwide have struggled with how to exploit its potential, while reining in its risks. Live now to brussels, nick reiners is a senior Tech Policy Analyst at eurasia group, a Political Risk advisory firm. Welcome here to the programme.

And rather than just focusing on innovation, tries to make sure ai is safe and also respects fundamental rights, peoples privacy, actually goes as far as to ban unacceptable uses of aia such as social scoring or ai used to manipulate people or making databases out of facial images straight from the web, for example, so it is the most ambitious and comprehensive of any that weve seen so far. The worry, and we heard it on capitol hill when they had a session on there is only a few months ago, worry is that the industry itself is way ahead of the regulators and the regulators really are struggling to keep up. That is correct, yes. And this law had been three years in the making, or even more and during that time, of course, chat gpt has come out and really shook the world and that necessitated a kind of second look at the law because what is the point of having an ai activity doesnt regulate chat gpt and that does illustrate some of the challenges of trying to create a law for a technology that is as fast moving as ai.

As the violence riddled country is left without a leader. The council will be tasked with nominating a new Prime Minister, following the resignation on monday of ariel henry. The un says it strongly hopes the agreement will help end the violence carried out by the gangs that control much of the capital. Gang leaders had demanded that the Prime Minister step down. 0ur Central America correspondent will grant is just outside of haiti and sent us this report. This is the dajabon border between the Dominican Republic and haiti. And we have already seen dominican authorities Deporting Haitians back in to the poorest country in the americas at a time that it is facing its most acute humanitarian crisis since the 2010 earthquake. It is also that they are being deported into a political vacuum. Prime minister ariel henry stood down, citing the fact that his situation was untenable given to the violence on the street of the capital, Port Au Prince. His decision came after the Caricom Group of caribbean nations and the us Secretary Of State held an emergency meeting injamaica, and made clear that they saw the roadmap towards a Transitional Administration in haiti starting with his resignation. So, what happens next . Well, the truth of the matter is that unfortunately things can still get much, much worse in haiti. The gangs are going to feel considerably emboldened by the fact that that have forced mr henry from power, and they already control around 80 of the capital, Port Au Prince. And the hopes for a 1,000 strong kenyan led Security Force are beginning to hit difficulties, as the kenyan authorities themselves are saying that you did not Deploy Police to the streets of Port Au Prince without a sitting administration.

When the Korean Peninsular<\/a> was divided in 1953, two villages on either side of the dmz were allowed to remain. South korean , metres from north korea. Soldiers guard. 0ur correspondent in seouljean mackenzie. The strip of land separating north and south korea. But beyond the barbed wire sets a deceivingly peaceful village. Where a Tiny Community<\/a> of south koreans live in the shadow of their enemy. North korea. Closely guarded by an Elite Battalion<\/a> of soldiers. Like many of the villagers, mrs kim was born here before currier was even divided. She has now offered some serious packs to convince her to stay. She doesnt pay taxes or rant and with extreme isolation comes an abundance of land to farm. 0ne Isolation<\/a> comes an abundance of land to farm. One day when i was gathering acorns, north korean soldiers came to close, mrs kim tells me. I started screaming. It was so scary. The village was established at the end of the korean war as a symbol of peace. Along with another village in the north. But no one is thought to live there now. Given the north koreans have decided to abandon this village and they dont have People Living<\/a> there, why dont have People Living<\/a> there, why do you keep People Living<\/a> here . Right. Many people believe that both exist in the hope that one day we unifying the Korean Peninsular<\/a>. Failing that, perhaps one day could pave the way for the normalisation of relations between the two koreas. But this hope is dying. Last month, the north declared unification impossible. And branded south korea at number one enemy. Putting the elderly residents on the front line of escalating tensions. We are taking up to the fields along the border. Beyond the rusty sign is north korea. Here, farmers must be escorted by soldiers with machine guns. We are so close to north korea now. The Border Isjust<\/a> guns. We are so close to north korea now. The border is just that behind hours and there is no fencing whatsoever so there is nothing to physically stop the soldiers from walking into these fields and then on into the village. As darkness descends, the threat rises. Soldiers go door to door checking everyone is inside. This curfew is the most restrictive part of village life. This family, with two small children, are unusual. Many young people have left the village. Lured by the opportunities of modern day south korea. And its numbers are shrinking. Do you think young people can be convinced to stay here . I dont think it will be easy. It is asking a lot for people to live with the curfew. That being able to come and go as we want. The curfew. That being able to come and go as we want. There are now so few children and go as we want. There are now so few Children Village<\/a> and go as we want. There are now so few Children Village<\/a> primary and go as we want. There are now so few Children Village<\/a> Primary School<\/a>. Few Children Village<\/a> Primary School<\/a> buses its pupils in from outside the dnc. And as the dream of the unification fades, it is getting harder to convince people to live here. On the front line of a conflict that might never be resolved.

Giant redwoods, the largest trees on the planet, are thriving in the uk. Thats the conclusion of a new survey published in the royal societyjournal 0pen science. The trees arent quite as big as those found in california just yet, but theyre becoming a key part of the landscape. Theyre becoming a standout feature of our forests. Giant redwoods are the biggest trees on the planet. These native californian wonders are fast growing, and can lock up vast amounts of carbon. And now theyre looming large across the landscape in the uk. Well, these Giant Redwood<\/a>s really live up to their name. They are suitably huge. So here are a couple of questions. How many of these trees do you think there are in their native californian region . Well, the answer is only about 80,000. And how many Giant Redwood<\/a>s do you think there are here in the uk . Well, you might be surprised to learn that theres an estimated 500,000, and that number is growing. These Giant Redwood<\/a>s were planted in wakehurst in sussex about 150 years ago, and it turns out that the damp british weather is good for them. So where they grow in california is cooler and moister than you would typically envisage california and we have a reasonably similar climate here. Its very wet. They need the moisture to grow. This one is not quite there yet. For their study, scientists have been using lasers to scan the trees. It means they can build up a detailed sd means they can build up a detailed 3d picture of each one so they can actually measure them. This Giant Redwood<\/a> is 46 metres tall but this cant also let scientists calculate the weight of the tree so they can work out how much carbon is being soaked up.

Hello. Thanks forjoining me. Its a bit of a mixed bag out there. 0n the one hand, its going to be relatively mild over the next two or three days. But on top of that, weve also got a lot of cloud and some really quite heavy rain today, especially across parts of wales and also the north of england. Snowdonia could see as much as 100 millimeters of rain over the next couple of days. So really wet there. Lets have a look at the forecast, then, as we go through the course of the afternoon. That narrow but very heavy band of rain from northern wales affecting parts of the pennines as well. To the south of the weather front, its really mild, temperatures around 15 degrees in some spots. To the north of the weather front, its a little less mild, around 12 degrees in the lowlands of scotland. And very windy here in the north West Of Scotland<\/a> through this afternoon and into this evening, gusts of wind, 60, maybe even 70 miles an hour in some exposed coasts. But back to that rain. Heres a weather front. Actually, it tends to move northwards, this next weatherfront, through thursday morning. So the heavy rain will transfer into Northern Ireland<\/a> and also southern parts of scotland. And also, to the west, well have showers spreading in, being carried by this mild south westerly wind. And you really will notice the mild weather tomorrow. In fact, in some spots, particularly across the East Midlands<\/a> into east anglia, lincolnshire, mid teens, 16, maybe even 17 celsius in one or two areas. And the forecast for tomorrow evening shows the wettest of our weather across scotland. Really quite heavy, persistent rain. Rest of the country, itll be a mixture of clear spells and occasional showers. Now, this is fridays weather map. The isobars are pointing from the north to the south, so were on the other side of an area of low pressure, so our winds will be coming in from the north. So i think friday is going to feel a little colder, particularly in the north. Its a colder direction. So temperatures here i think around single figures for edinburgh, for newcastle, but in the south still relatively mild, around 11 to m degrees celsius, and a mixture of sunny spells and showers. Friday night into saturday is going to bring a touch of frost, and then the outlook really does show that mixed bag of weather continuing but staying relatively mild in the south. Bye bye.
