people. information. they want to express. our facebook twitter. in touch. this week on global three thousand we head to a paradise island which is also a popular destination for cruise ships how does that work. in kenya the outlook is bleak for many young people but now some comic book heroes are coming to the rescue. and new technologies are making us question one of our most

important senses can we still trust our lives. we all have pictures in our heads and they can be extremely powerful we process images sixty thousand times more quickly than we do in written words they arouse our emotions they can move us make us laugh feel happy or sad. but images can also be deceptive and they can be manipulated now even moving images can be altered making it possible to create extremely authentic looking fake news videos. have decided to resign from the. decided to resign from the of the press. is the next generation of all fake news on the left trunk space but if spatial expression and words are actually being generated by an actor feeding. animation software developers like

howley are perfecting the technology behind for type resolution facial mapping. customized. fourteen. to create leave hyper realistic. you can see cookie screwed up face that we just photograph and you can see here it's all rendered in three d. and what's really effective about this device is that it even shows the pores we can zoom in here and see all the lines on his face. used. and. team of developers aren't interested in creating fake. they're focused on communication tools they're possible for anyone to create avatars for use in various applications for instance in the film industry.

could generate a new video with my features mapped onto someone else's and of course i could also my face on today is so i would actually look like them and have human under the specialized software creates a template which captures facial expressions in three d. . places needed it's even possible to use regular photos however there's no way to control how people. it hasn't been abused much to create fake news but i have no doubt that that will happen there's already a lot of software that people are uploading to the internet which people can use to match the face of one person on to someone else's. so the possibility already exists to generate videos of people doing things that haven't happened in reality. scientists in germany are also scrutiny. the face

a group of researchers from the phone with the institute for integration circuits are teaching computers to read human emotions what technology advances open up possibilities they also give rise to unintended developments. of course first and foremost church to you have to ask how these technologies are going to be applied if you had said clear boundaries and established press what is permissible ethically and legally. so yes we give a lot of consideration to the ethical legal and social impact of our research. picked from. god bots and his team are working with program similar to those in california they hope to develop intelligent systems which can to text for example when nursing home residents who can't speak are in pain but other researchers demonstrate how this technology can be used for less benign purposes. by live

thinking and super imposing their own facial expressions in real time they're able to turn famous politicians into their puppets with additional voice mimicking software you could make it seem as if not my foo thing or donald trump were declaring world war three said people tend to trust videos that could lead to horrific consequences if we conducted them at will it will be harder to tell what's real and what's not. it's important for us to research the subjects in particular here in germany and europe so we can better understand how these technologies work. this will allow us to predict what might be possible in the future. if we don't it'll be left in the hands of major corporations like google and facebook. the potential dangers are already being acted upon developers are devising software to detect whether videos are fake or not. if

videos go viral in the internet you have to be very careful the most important thing is that people understand what's possible now. for better or worse experts say that these technologies will be a part of everyday life over the next decade in the near future we won't be able to say that seeing is believing. this difficult to be president. videos spread like wildfire on social media networks sent to city is the currency of our time so trust us and follow us on. the science. many children under eighteen lose one or more parents teach a war. on natural disasters according to unicef in two thousand and fifteen there were almost one hundred forty million orphans worldwide.

countless iraqi children witnessed horrific events during the bitter fighting and siege of the city of mosul many have been left physically and emotionally traumatized they've lost their parents until now completely dependent on aid. mornings or the highlight of sakina muhammad's day the children greet her with huge hugs they're playful and happy now but they share a sad past these children were orphaned during the islamic state militant groups reign of terror. rocky special forces recovered them from the rubble in mosul. this orphanage is now their home here they're safe and can express their hopes. and then i want to work at a company. well your school principal this is the i want to study at university. i s wouldn't allow it to cation for girls and i don't have them with us so it's ok

to mohammad wants to give these children a chance to flourish but the head of the orphanage says money and resources are a constant issue the key the key issue i'm so sad that i can't really help them. i go to the government again and again and ask them for books and help has probably been the think but i beg them to make improvements and decisions. but nothing happens this leaves children like them in the lurch the toddler was conceived when his father and i as militant raped his mother a u.c.d. women from the kurdish religious minority were systematically subjected to kidnapping and sexual assault under i.i.s. autumn's mother has since returned to her husband and their three children leaving him here he had with us that he is he his mother is e.t. her religion forbids had to raise the children of muslims. yet. that's

why she gave her son to the all financial model in japan and saved his life to. the militants tore apart families in mosul shiite muslim children like ramiro and ali were taken from their parents and given to supporters. after the city was freed their uncle found them here at the orphanage now he wants to raise them. but years of brainwashing have left their mark. they were taught what our u.s. believes. now ali hates iraqi police and soldiers. he sings songs its ideology has shaped his thoughts. the idea of. islamic state didn't just leave behind destruction in mosul they sowed hatred in people's hearts. by a sniper's even used children as bait when iraqi soldiers came to rescue the

children they were ambushed. was used this way he was dragged out of a firefight by a dog as iraqi special forces closed in the baby survived but lost his arm he's just eight months old and no one knows what's happened to his parents and he doesn't know what has me most children can hold milk bottles at a months but he can't because he's missing an arm and means that he's often ill and needs a lot of care you haven't got a huge amount of the key right here yet there are many such sad stories here at the orphanage but at least now the children can laugh sing and dream of a better future. many children and young adults around the world share that hope of

a better future in sub-saharan africa more than sixty percent of the population is under twenty five many of them long to have fulfilling work yet more often than not that dream remains a dream. kenya has particularly high levels of youth unemployment around twenty percent says the world bank many young people move from rural areas to the cities where they end up living in slums. kibera is the largest slum in kenya's capital nairobi for several years locals have learned important life lessons from an unlikely source a free comic book it addresses issues relevant to people's everyday lives like widespread joblessness and unplanned pregnant seems especially among younger women . so troop reduction would be just expose to production and so on and this would be.

the top. of the draw for it since most of the. huge ads means heroes in chiang slang a mixture of so healy in english spoken by millions of young kenyans the creators say they want to entertain and inform their goal is to educate by providing tips and positive role models i would suffer on clearly not been about. twenty one to believe that my guess is they did they got to tell it i thought you would bring it why not to me. placing a big emphasis on community involvement the shoe just team asks their readers to suggest topics for their stories the characters in the comic books also. i have a strong presence on social media. i think agent thinking every

young people in kenya it's critical for them to be on social media they want to be informed they want to understand what the trends are they want to make a point to work with and that question just comes in to create that. partnership with their clients and just make sure but we're always happening from there they made yeah it's a simple that's happening you. can also contact the editorial team via text messages this is an especially popular form of communication in kenya for those who don't have internet access there's also the option of listening to a daily radio show that's broadcast over more than twenty stations. of the man behind huge jazz and the multimedia well told story platform is rabbanit a bridge has lived in kenya for more than twenty years the idea for the project came in response to the violence that erupted in two thousand and seven following the country's contested presidential election he saw

a younger generation that felt manipulated by politicians and overlooked by the mainstream media burnette wanted to help young people improve their prospects it was a very serious study on a big scale done by a leading academic institution in the us it was a very robust study and it said that young women aged nineteen or less who follow should chose. or so three times less likely to be married at the age of nineteen young women who do not feel sure that we could do was much more sort of mechanical problems so the outcome of us dealing with mechanical problems which in this case was how do you make some money how do you make a plan for the future how do you stay healthy the result was young people young women not getting married early. and it turns out that not being married at nineteen probably means you're in school or it means you've got a business it means you're making money it means your life is progressing if you

don't have a child there's a bunch of good things that come with not being married. they now reach well over six million people this includes a growing audience in neighboring tanzania team the longer term goal is to increase their online presence across the african continent. what else can the internet do to create energy and possibilities for millions of followers so we have some ideas for developing fast to say can we take the promise of the jazz effect and deliver it bigger faster better quicker cheaper on the internet that's that's that's what we're working on more and more people are getting online in kibera too but for the moment the old fashioned comic book continues to inspire people to share their stories and embrace new ideas. today in global ideas we visit

a small island off the coast of mexico head. every year cruise ships take millions of passengers to cozumel. but what does that mean for liverpool and wildlife. our reporter christiane romantic travel to cozumel to find out more about how people that are protecting their island paradise. you know you know. i mean this is our land is my home and i'm grateful that i get to meet so many people here tourists ships cruise people from around the world. melissa great place to work as a biologist the best regards. so many nature so many species and they have to be protected.

by discover the fairy beauty area and the amazing wore off and school abiding i decided to believe that's my young. men but and yes for me cause a male is a thousand years of history and a world heritage. kozo male lies on mexico's east coast the caribbean island is a favorite tourist destination five million visitors come here every year the harbor is large enough to handle seven cruise ships at any given time when it ships passengers disembark it's like an invasion. posing yetto is in charge

of harbor security he's been on the island for twenty years and witnessed how the harbor has been expanded to accommodate the giant cruise liners. but even more not sure of the one is essential for the whole island when it's a source of income for everyone working over here. we depend on the tourists mark important to go get an up close and i thought you know. but the tourist hordes rarely head into the rain forest canopy covering the island's interior half of which is a protected nature reserve. with you know a. biologist christopher gonzalez wants to see the integrity of the rainforest maintained but these concerns the island. is that a crossroads. i think. they were used to be

several years ago. but by now the truth is that there will go somalis everything the tories despair of their will from what we have to do now is to manage the reality and they're protected areas are part of that. he'd like to see more visitors enjoying the natural wonders here for instance on trekking tours as long as they follow strict guidelines however most coastal med is home to the world's second largest coral reef more than five hundred species of fish live here some threatened by extinction. it's a fragile paradise and a valuable treasure. according to a study by the german corporation for international cooperation the deterioration of cousin mills coral reefs could cost the island around seventy million euros in income annually. if we loose water quality it will stay clear

of the water we'll specious twelve percent of the person that goes through the mail . so we are working currently in order to make the people more conscious about that and when when the when i see people talking about tourist. guides that goes with the tories they are like. what the. tories will do that. their diving instructor mando ramirez is well aware of that relationship the conservation authorities know he's sticking to the rules because he has to renew his tour guide licensing every two years. is one of the most popular places. because he is so water beautiful only one. metre the is full of starfish and usually the people are ripe to this place

take the starfish out of the water take their sales and put it back maybe the starfish is going to be there next day that is their lack of education you cannot coach anything. this ignorance is upsetting to. that's why he only takes small groups down at a time and gives them strict instructions if you don't control while diving and you get close to their reef you're going to hit the reef maybe with your hands but maybe with that i mean you hit the formation or other. boy if you are something with your bank it's going to be a big damage. they'll break off and die. most tourists from the ship spend only half a day on the island it's not much time to experience the culture. was a center of mayan religious culture the mayor herself is of mayan descent which

meant she wishes the tourists would take more interest in the island's culture and history. both this he'll know that africa. two to cause amounts unique to graphical location and that we'll never be able to avoid all these crucial says moment though they could. but we shouldn't be afraid to set down rules for the tourists up when it is than that. i mean if you're going to destroy the environment you know then you come to cause why they don't patronize our restaurants and shops then you can't go home and if you don't enrich our society then you're not well on here. that most probably again the night has been many of them. in the evenings when the harbor empties becomes tranquil but only for a few hours the next cruise ships will soon be dark in here again.
