>> MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC IN OUR BODY DESERVE MORE TRANSPARENCY.

OUR CHICAGO POLICE BEING EFFECTIVELY DEPLOYED ACROSS THE CITY PUSH TO STUDY THE DEPARTMENT'S OFFICER ALLOCATION.

THE IMPACT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ON ELECTIONS.

AND NOW TO SOME OF TODAY'S TOP STORIES, THE HEAD OF THE UNION REPRESENTING CHICAGO PUBLIC SCHOOL PRINCIPALS.

>> SAYS HE WANTS THE CHICAGO SCHOOL BOARD TO HOLD TEACHERS UNION PRESIDENT STACY DAVIS.

GATES ACCOUNTABLE THIS AFTER AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PRINCIPAL FILED A POLICE INCIDENT REPORT AGAINST DAVIS GATES FOR ALLEGEDLY MAKING COMMENTS TELLING UNION MEMBERS TO, QUOTE, PUNCH THEIR PRINCIPLE IN THE FACE.

DAVIS GATES SAID THE COMMENTS WERE FIGURATIVE AND NO CHARGES WERE FILED.

BUT PRINCIPALS ASSOCIATION, PRESIDENT TROY LAURA VA, WHO YOU SEE HERE WROTE A LETTER TO CPS CEO PEDRO MARTINEZ SAYING, QUOTE, WE EXPECT THE BOARD TO HOLD DAVIS GATES ACCOUNTABLE.

HER PUBLIC THREAT WAS UNPROFESSIONAL, UNETHICAL AND UNBECOMING OF ANY EDUCATOR OR LEADER ASSOCIATED WITH THE DISTRICT AND DISTRICT EMPLOYEES.

THE LETTER ALSO CONTENDS THAT DAVIS GETS HIS ACTIONS ARE PART OF A LARGER TARGETED EFFORT OF, QUOTE, UNDERMINING AND DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR ON THE PART OF CHICAGO TEACHERS, UNION MEMBERS IN DELEGATES THE CTU NOR LAURA VA RETURNED OUR MESSAGES FOR COMMENT.

AND YOU CAN READ MORE ON THIS STORY ON OUR WEBSITE.

>> NAMES WILL BE APPLIED TO THE SNOW PLOWS AND EACH OF THE CITY'S 6 SNOWPLOW DISTRICT CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THOSE NAMES.

AND UP NEXT, THE IMPACT OF A CONTROVERSIAL MOTION AT LAST WEEK'S CITY COUNCIL MEETING.

AND THAT'S RIGHT AFTER THIS.

>> CHICAGO TONIGHT IS MADE POSSIBLE IN PART THE ALEXANDRA AND JOHN NICHOLS FAMILY.

THE GYM AND K MAYBE FAMILY.

THE POPE BROTHERS FOUNDATION.

AND THE SUPPORT OF THESE DONORS.

>> THE CHICAGO CITY COUNCIL VOTE LAST WEEK HAS CAUSED CONTENTION AND ALMOST EQUAL DIVISION AMONGST ALL THEIR PEOPLE.

IT'S NOT RELATED TO VIOLENCE OR TAXES OR SCHOOLS.

INSTEAD, IT WAS OVER RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A CEASE-FIRE BETWEEN ISRAEL AND GAZA.

GOVERNOR JB PRITZKER SAYS HE WAS, QUOTE, DISAPPOINTED WITH THE RESOLUTION'S PASSAGE AND JEWISH LEADERS SAY IT FANS THE FLAMES OF ANTI-SEMITISM, BUT SUPPORTERS SAY IT SENDS A STRONG MESSAGE TO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO CALL ON ISRAEL TO END ITS BOMBING CAMPAIGN ON GUYS IN WHICH 10'S OF THOUSANDS HAVE ALREADY BEEN KILLED.

AND JOINING US, OUR ALDERMAN BYRON SIGCHO LOPEZ OF THE 25TH WARD AND 30TH WARD ALDERMAN NICK SPEARS OUT ON DIFFERENT SIDES OF THIS ISSUE.

FIRST OF ALDERMAN LOPEZ WITH ALL THE ISSUES FACING THE CITY MIGRANTS, VIOLENCE, TAXES, SCHOOLS, WHY SPEND SO MUCH TIME AND CAPITAL AND DEBATE ON THIS BECAUSE WE NEED TO SCRUTINIZE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS UNCONSCIONABLE THAT WE'D ALL THE NEED TO COMMUNITIES WE HAVE NEEDS.

>> IN THE HOUSING IN THAT LOCATION, WE SEE THE CONCERNS OF THE BORDER.

WE DO THE GROWING NEED.

WE CANNOT FIND CAUTION DOUBLE THAT WE ARE BYPASSING GOT A CONGRESS TO SEND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.

I THINK ALMOST 100 OVER DOLLARS WARS THAT ONLY DO IS DISPLACE MORE PEOPLE NOW WE DENY THE FACT THAT OR FOREIGN POLICY UNQUESTIONABLY KNOW WORKING WHAT WE NEED TO THIS PROVIDES SOLUTION BECAUSE FOR YOUNG VOTERS AND FOR PEOPLE THING, THIS IS IN LINE WITH WHAT RESIDENTS WANT TO SEE.

61% OF ALL VOTERS SUPPORT CEASE-FIRE.

IF THAT NUMBERS AND COMPANY DOESN'T HAVE DEMOCRAT THINGS OVER 70%.

I THINK THE QUESTIONS HERE, WHY SOME ELECTED OFFICIALS REFUSE TO LISTEN TO THE PUBLIC TO OPEN SECRETS WITH A MAN CEASE-FIRE A BETTER TO THIS ISSUE.

THERE CERTAINLY WERE LOTS OF PROTEST AT CITY HALL ON ACROSS THE IN SUPPORT OF >> THE LONE JEWISH MEMBER ON CITY COUNCIL ALDERMEN DEATHS EVER SEEN SAYS THERE COULD HAVE BEEN MORE OF A COMPROMISE.

THAT RESOLUTION THAT WOULD HAVE INCLUDED THE CONDEMNATION OF HAMAS ATTACKS AND EXPOSE.

I KNOW THAT THIS RESOLUTION REPRESENT THE COMPROMISE THAT YOU WANT TO SEE.

>> I KNOW NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE OTHER SIDE THIS SHOULD'VE NEVER GOT TO POINT THAT IT DID.

IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SIT-DOWN FACIALLY BETWEEN NOT THAT BRIGHT ROSANNA AND WORK SOMETHING OUT.

WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOING ANYTHING BUT IF WE DIDN'T DO DOWN WITH COME UP WITH A COMPROMISE AND SAY AND WHERE COULD HAVE BEEN 15 TO NOTHING.

AND WE'RE NOT DIVIDED THE MORNING.

READY TO FIGHT IT.

AND MY COLLEAGUES ARE BRANDON ABOUT A LOT OF STUFF.

PART OF A ANY LIFE LOST IS A TERRIBLE THING, ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN.

BUT, YOU KNOW, THESE TERRORISTS WILL STOP AT NOTHING.

NO USE IN CHILDREN, CHURCHES, HOSPITALS AS SHIELDS MY COLLEAGUES.

UNFORTUNATELY, ARE BRINGING ABOUT GREAT IT WAS STILL TO BE OUT THERE PROTESTING, CHANTING RACES ANTI-SEMITIC FROM THE RIVER SAY THAT THEY REALLY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED MY 23 COLLEAGUES A SIGN AT THERE.

>> ALL RIGHT.

ALL INSECURE LOPEZ.

WHAT ABOUT THAT?

WHY NOT INCLUDE LANGUAGE THAT WOULD HAVE CONDEMNED HAMAS FOR ITS ATTACKS ON OCTOBER, 7TH?

>> WELL, FIRST OF ALL, THERE WAS ALREADY A RESOLUTION THAT WAS PULLED IN THE COUNCIL AND OUTLINE WHAT HE WAS NOT THE CALM.

BUT AND AND THE HATE CONTINUE TO RAISE IN THE CITY ON TO SOME OF ISLAMOPHOBIA ON A LOCAL CRIME TO CONTINUE TO RISE BECAUSE OF THE INAPPROPRIATE COMPLETELY WRONG APPROACH TO THE CONFLICT.

SO WHAT WE SAY NEWS, WE NEED A CEASE-FIRE.

WE NEED A HUMANITARIAN AID TO REACH AND WE NEED ALL HOSTAGES TO BE RELEASED.

I THINK THAT SOMETHING BUDDIES, MY OPINION, WELCOME IN OUR COMMUNITY IS WHAT WE NEED TO FOCUS.

THESE ARE INDEED IN THE LOCAL ISSUES AT HAND.

WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE TALK ABOUT THE IMPLEMENTING AWARDS.

WE NEED HOUSING FOR PEOPLE CHICAGO.

WE NEEDED TO PATIENT EMPLOYMENT.

EVERYTHING IS WITHIN REACH.

MEANTIME, THE CEASE-FIRE, PARIS.

>> OKAY.

GO AHEAD, NICK.

>> WHAT WE'RE DREAM AND THAT ALL THE THINGS WE NE.

BUT WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH CEASE-FIRE WHILE THE THINGS WE NEED GO TO WAR OUR OWN CITY AND WORRIED ABOUT A WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST WHERE A GROUP TERRORISTS GAUNTLET, COUNTRY MURDER RATE, BEHEADED, BURNED PEOPLE AND THEN THEY RESPOND BY THE SENATOR COUNTRY.

AND 23 COACH THINK THAT THAT'S OK TO DO THAT.

SO I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED ONCE SOMEBODY ATTACKS MY COUNTRY, I RESPOND BY SENATE, ALL THE MONEY.

THEY'RE GETTING THOSE TERRORISTS OVER THERE FOR HUMANITARIAN AID YEARS AND FOR TUNNELS, PARENT OR TUNNEL AND ON IRAN TO TUNNEL UNDER HOSPITALS UNDER SCHOOLS, CHURCHES AND THEIR USE GOOD GOOD PEOPLE.

GOOD PALESTINIANS AS HUMAN THERE.

UNFORTUNATELY UNDER WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SAY THAT HARRIS REGIME YEAR AGAIN, YOU'RE REFERRING TO THE MILITANTS HAMAS THAT THAT ARE BASICALLY A DEFECT CHARGE OF THEY LET CITY AND PEOPLE ARE GOOD, HARD-WORKING TERRORIST LIST.

SO SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH THOSE AND WHAT FOLKS LIKE ON THEM.

WAS OUT OF ESPECIALLY THE SILVER SCENE.

ONE WAS JUST AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE HAMAS ATTACKS.

>> ON ISRAELIS, WHY?

WHY WASN'T AGAIN?

THIS WAS ALREADY RECOGNIZE WAS A RESOLUTION THAT WAS APPROVED.

THE COUNCIL.

>> WHAT WE HAVE IS AND BEING DONE IS AND WE DO HAVE RIGHT NOW A CASE INTERNATIONAL COURTS WE HAVE RIGHT NOW ON TO SHOWS OF GENOCIDE NOT ONLY AGAINST ISRAEL, BUT AGAINST THE U.S. IS.

WHAT I'VE DONE IS OUR COUNTRY, I THINK IS WITHIN DUTY AS ELECTED OFFICIALS LISTEN TO THE PUBLIC THAT ARE DEMANDING NOT ONLY A CEASE-FIRE.

WHAT WE DO WANT IS TO SEE THESE HORRIFIC IMAGES EVERY DAY THAT CAN HAPPEN TO ANYBODY.

WHAT WE WANT IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A DIPLOMATIC APPROACH THAT ADDRESSES AND WE HAVE HOPEFULLY A PERMANENT CEASE-FIRE SO THAT WE CAN FOCUS ON PROBLEMS LOCALLY.

WE CAN ON OUT OF FEDERAL DOLLARS TO FROM GENOCIDE.

WHAT WE'VE GOT BOAT PEOPLE DIE IN THE STREETS OF CHICAGO DYING OVER SURVATION PUTTING SECURITY WITHOUT YOU SHUMPERT A DAY OF 20,000 KIDS IN CPS ON HOUSE IN CHICAGO.

WHAT IS THE FRONT OF GOING TO COME ON AGAIN, THAT THE CENTER FOR WE KIND CONTINUE TO TO RISE ISLAMOPHOBIA AND ANTI-SEMITISM.

THIS IS THE RED RESULT OF A DISCOURSE THAT IS INCITING TO MORE VIOLENCE INSTEAD LOOKING FOR DIPLOMATIC VENUES FOR THE PUBLIC DOLLARS TO COPE WITH THE SUPPOSED DO, SOME OF THEM ARE COME PUBLIC.

WE'RE HERE TO PROTECT UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS.

AND I THINK THIS COUNCIL TO GET YOU STARTED APPROACHING.

ARE ELEMENTS, I DO.

IT WAS REALLY A PART OF THAT.

THE MAYOR ASKED THEM ALL THEIR PEOPLE NOT TO SHOW UP TO THE THAT PROBABLY WE'RE GOING TO VOTE NO AND PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SUNK THIS RESOLUTION.

>> YOU THINK THIS WAS THE RIGHT USE OF THE MAYOR'S POLITICAL CAPITAL HERE MAY BE BENDING SOME ALL THAT AND ALL.

I THE MAYOR'S A FRIEND OF MINE, AND HE WAS PUT IN A TERRIBLE BY THESE PEOPLE THAT TO DO AS YOU AS WE KNOW, THE GOVERNOR IS THAT EVERYONE SURE PRESIDENT IS THAT EVERY IT'S A MEANINGLESS.

HONORED WREAK HAVOC IN THE CITY AMONG THE COUNCIL MEMBERS AND TRY TRY TO DO SOMETHING THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD WIN.

THEY WILL LAST IF SOMEBODY DIDN'T ASK FOR PEOPLE NOT TO SHOW UP.

>> SO JUST JUST TERRIBLE.

IF THESE PEOPLE WITH A SIDE OF VIDEOS THAT WE SAW, THAT THEY DIDN'T THEY WOULD HAVE KNOWN MORE ABOUT THE REFUSING EGYPT TRYING TO GET ABOUT A FIRE TO TIRES, TRYING TO GET INVOLVED, THAT THEY'RE REFUSING A LASSO NEVER STOP.

GOAL IN LIFE IS TO KILL EVERY JEWEL IN THE WORLD AND EVERY AMERICAN IN THE WORLD.

AND WE NEED ERADICATE THIS WORLD OF THESE PEOPLE.

THEY'RE TERRIBLE TERRORIST.

ONCE AGAIN, THE TOP OF OUR TEARS AND I'M SURE SOME TEAR IS GOING TO THREATENING ME OR MY OFFICE ARE YOU KNOW VERY SO.

NOW AFTER YOUR SHOW PARENTS.

ALL RIGHT.

WELL, I WANT I WANT TO READ A QUOTE THE ATL AND THE JEWISH UNITED SAID, QUOTE, MAYOR JOHNSON CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS COULD HAVE DRAFTED A RESOLUTION THAT SUPPORTS A CEASEFIRE ADVOCATES FOR INCREASING MILITARY ASSISTANCE.

THE PASSING PEOPLE, WHICH THAT ALDERMAN LOPEZ DEMANDS UNCONDITIONAL RELEASE OF HOSTAGES.

>> AND CALLS FOR DISMANTLING OF THE TERRORIST ORGANIZATION HAMAS AND SAID THEY ADVOCATED FOR A ONE-SIDED RESOLUTION DIVIDES OUR CITY INVOLVED IN TOMORROW'S AND DANGEROUSLY UNDERMINED U.S.

GLOBAL INFLUENCE.

THE DEBATE AND RHETORIC AROUND THIS RESOLUTION IS FANNED THE FLAMES OF ANTI-SEMITISM IN AT THAT SUMMIT INCIDENTS IN THE CITY IN US.

AND IT'S REACHING UNPRECEDENTED LEVELS ACCORDING TO THIS ARE YOU WORRIED THAT THE AGAIN WHAT THEY'RE CALLING KIND OF A ONE-SIDED?

SO RESOLUTION IS IS FANNING THE FLAMES OF ANTI-SEMITISM.

MOMENTS DECIDED MENTIONED THAT FROM THE RIVER TO SAY THEY ABOUT AFFAIR.

SO >> A MOM WORRY ABOUT OUR CONSTITUENTS, RIGHT?

PALESTINIANS, JEWISH CAN SEE THOSE OPEN SEAT ONCE.

THINK IT IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT A 6 YEAR-OLD BOY WAS A WAS KILLED.

26 TIMES THE STAFF.

26 EYES BECAUSE HE'S LONGER LICENSED, REALLY ILL. AND THAT THIS WAS A IN SOUTH SUBURBAN DIVAS AGAIN.

AND AGAIN, THESE WORDS, THIS WAS A RESORT OF THESE CORES THAT CONTINUE TO HUMANIZE PALESTINE IS AT A TIME WHEN THE PUBLIC IS GOING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

WHAT WE IS A RESOLUTION THAT COMMUNITY SUPPORT IN OUR COMMUNITY.

PEOPLE WANT TO SEE ANYTHING.

83 TO GAZA AND THE RELEASE OF HOPE MESSAGES.

AND AGAIN, WE SHOULD WORK FOR GOVERNMENT TO WORK TOWARDS A PERMANENT CEASE-FIRE, FROM DONORS TO COME.

DORSEY PERCENT, ALL CHICAGOANS AND AGAIN, THESE WORDS OF PLACE AND PEOPLE.

29,000 UKRAINIANS, NINER CITY AND NOW WE HAVE MORE PEOPLE TO COME RIGHT.

NEW NEIGHBORS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

THIS IS TIME TO FOCUS LOCAL ISSUES.

AND I THINK FOR SOME AND THE LIKE.

ALL RIGHT, THE NEXT HOW DIVIDED IS A COUNCIL RIGHT NOW AND >> CAN CAN FOLKS COME BACK TOGETHER?

WELL, OBVIOUSLY A PRETTY DIVIDED.

I MEAN, IT WAS 23 TO 23 FOR FOR PEOPLE THAT SHOW UP OR TAKE A WALK.

WHATEVER YOU WANT TO OBVIOUSLY, I THINK THEY'RE OUR SIDE.

I THINK THIS IS A YOU KNOW, THERE YOU HAVE THAT YOU HAVE KNOW COLLABORATION WITH US.

MANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT THOUGHT THIS WAS BAD IDEA.

I MUST SAY SILVER SAY MOST OF US FOLLOW HER LEAD LEAD.

AND I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT'S NUMBER ONE ALLY.

SO NOBODY CAME TO ME AND SAID, HEY, NEXT, SIT DOWN AND TALK YOUR WAY THINK ABOUT OR WE'RE TALKING WITH THEM AND THAT'S OK THEN THE REST OF US, WHAT IS THAT?

OKAY.

BUT IT'S JUST WE'RE GOING TO DO WE'RE GOING TO MAKE US LOOK IRISH WERE LAPPING OF AMERICA.

A NATIONAL REMATCH.

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE MAKING FUN OF US RUN NATIONAL NOSE TALKING WITH A JOKE.

WE ARE WITH THIS.

I MEAN, THIS IS A JOKE.

THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

THE GOVERNOR'S PISTOL OUT IN THE PRESIDENT'S PITCH.

TALK ABOUT ALL RIGHT.

>> WELL, WHAT WE HAVE TO LEAVE THE DEBATE THERE.

ALDERMAN SECURE LOPEZ ALDERMEN SPINS OUT OF.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOUR PARENTS.

THANKS FOR HAVING YOU BET.

AND UP NEXT, OUR CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS BEING EFFECTIVELY DEPLOYED ACROSS THE CITY AND THE SURE WHY SOME CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS WANT THAT TO BE STUDIED.

THE CHICAGO CITY COUNCIL MOVED A STEP CLOSER TODAY TO ORDERING POLICE BRASS TO STUDY WHETHER OFFICERS ARE EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY DEPLOYED ACROSS THE CITY TO STOP CRIME AND RESPOND TO CALLS FOR HELP.

A FINAL VOTE ON THE PROPOSAL IS SET FOR FEBRUARY 16TH.

HERE'S ALDERMAN MATT MARTIN URGING HIS COLLEAGUES TO APPROVE THE PLAN TODAY.

>> WE'RE REQUIRED TO DO THIS BY THE CONSENT DECREE.

WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT FOR MANY YEARS IN FITS AND STARTS.

BELIEVE NOW IS THE TIME FOR US TO STEP UP AND GET IT DONE.

>> WDW NEWS REPORTER HEATHER JOINS US NOW WITH THE LATEST ON THE PUSH WHICH COMES A SIGNIFICANT POLITICAL PERIL FOR MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL.

GET INTO THAT.

BUT MARTIN SAYS THEY'RE REQUIRED TO DO THIS BY THE CONSENT DECREE.

SO WHY AN ORDINANCE?

WELL, THE ISSUE OF HOW OFFICERS ARE DEPLOYED ACROSS THE CITY HAS LONG BEEN THE 3RD RAIL OF PUBLIC SAFETY POLITICS IN CHICAGO.

>> NO ALDERPERSON WANTS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROVING SOMETHING THAT WOULD SEE POLICE OFFICERS MOVED OUT OF THEIR WORD AND INTO ANOTHER.

EVEN THOUGH WE KNOW THAT THE SOUTH AND THE WEST SIDE IS WHERE MOST OF THE VIOLENT CRIME IN CHICAGO HAPPENS AT THE SAME TIME, THERE'S NO EVIDENCE THAT THERE ARE MORE OFFICER STATION CARE RESPOND TO THOSE CALLS FOR HELP.

AT THE SAME TIME WHEN THERE'S A VIOLENT CRIME OR MURDER ON THE NORTH SIDE FOR DOWNTOWN THOSE CRIMES GET A DISPROPORTIONATE ATTENTION FROM POLITICIANS AND THE NEWS MEDIA, WHICH MEANS THAT THE MOVE TO MOVE OFFICERS OUT OF THOSE AREAS WOULD BE POLITICALLY PERILOUS FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED AND THAT DO WE KNOW MUCH THIS STUDY WILL COST AND WHO WILL DO THE WORK WE HEARD TODAY FROM ALDERMAN MARTIN, THAT IT'S GOING TO COST PROBABLY CLOSE TO A MILLION DOLLARS, BUT THAT THE CITY HAS COMMITMENTS FROM PHILANTHROPIC ORGANIZATIONS TO DO THE WORK AT NO COST TO TAXPAYERS, WHICH IS NO DOUBT.

GOOD NEWS FOR THE CITY COUNCIL WHICH HAS SPENT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO COMPLY WITH THE CONSENT DECREE.

YET HE'S ONLY REACHED 6% FULL COMPLIANCE.

LONG WAY TO GO THERE.

NOT MUCH PROGRESS ESSENCE OF LIFE ADMINISTRATION.

THIS WILL BE THE FIRST STUDY OF POLICE DEPLOYMENT.

SO WHAT HAPPENED IN 2016 2019?

WELL, IN BOTH CASES, THE TOP COPS AT THE TIME TOOK THOSE STUDIES AND SHELVE THEM KNOWING THAT THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS WERE GOING TO CAUSE A POLITICAL FIRESTORM IN 2022.

FORMER TOP COP DAVID BROWN SAID THAT THE STUDY CONDUCTED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO CRIME LAB WAS SOMEHOW LACKING.

SO WE'VE ONLY SEEN A SUMMARY OF THAT REPORT THAT THAT SUMMARY FOUND THAT POLICE OFFICER DEPLOYMENT DECISIONS WERE MADE IN A HIGHLY INEQUITABLE AND POLITICALLY MOTIVATED WAY.

AND DO WE HAVE ASSURANCE THAT STUDY IS GOING TO?

HAVE AN IMPACT AND PERHAPS LEAD TO SOMETHING?

WELL, THE ORDINANCE SET FOR A FINAL VOTE IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS WOULD REQUIRE THE STUDY TO BE RELEASED PUBLICLY.

AND IT SETS OF THE SCHEDULED QUARTERLY MEETINGS THAT WILL GIVE THE CITY COUNCIL INSIGHT INTO HOW THE STUDY IS PROGRESSING AND HOPEFULLY CREATE POLITICAL PRESSURE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PUBLIC AND THE NEWS MEDIA SEES ITS RESULTS THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE HEATHER.

SEAN, THANKS VERY MUCH.

THANKS, PARIS.

AND YOU CAN FULL STORY ON OUR WEBSITE.

IT'S ALL A WTW DOT COM SLASH NEWS.

>> CHICAGO, TONIGHT'S COVERAGE OF PUBLIC SAFETY IS SUPPORTED BY THE SOO LEE CHARITABLE FOUNDATION INITIATIVE FOR REDUCING VIOLENCE IN CHICAGO.

>> DEBATES, POLITICAL ADS AND POLES GO OR THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IS IN FULL SWING.

WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT.

BUT CAMPAIGN SEASON ALSO BRINGS MISINFORMATION AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.

HE'S TAKING THE STAGE THIS CYCLE.

JOINING US TO TALK ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS OF AI IN THIS ELECTION ARE JENNIFER TO WINTER DEAN OF THE LEWIS COLLEGE OF SCIENCE AND LETTERS AT THE ILLINOIS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY AND CHRISTIAN HAMM AND A PROFESSOR OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AT NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY.

WELCOME TO BOTH OF YOU.

JENNIFER DE WINTER NEWS TODAY THAT META, THE PARENT COMPANY OF FACEBOOK.

WELL, TAKE DOWN THIS ALTERED VIDEO.

PRESIDENT BIDEN, WHICH WAS ALTERED BY HUMAN BEING APPARENTLY NOT AI.

WHAT WAS THEIR REASONING SHARRA.

SO THIS VIDEO IS RECASTING PRESIDENT BIDEN AS A POSSIBLE PEDOPHILE AND >> A META HAS A SUBSIDIARY COMPANY, A SPINOFF THAT THEY CONTROL AND FUN TO DO AT THE CULL REASONING.

AND ACCORDING TO MEDICS POLICIES MANIPULATION BY HUMANS OF HUMAN GENERATED CONTENT DOESN'T ACTUALLY FALL UNDER THIS POLICY THAT THEY HAVE AND ALSO THE ERA POLICY ISN'T ATTENDING TO MANIPULATION OF SPEECH.

AND SO THERE'S A WHOLE BUNCH OF HOLES HAPPEN IN THIS POLICY THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO USE TO ADDRESS THE ANTICIPATED COMPLICATIONS AROUND THE CYCLE AND THIS COMPLETELY SIDESTEPPED AS AN INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT BOARD THAT WAS PRETTY CRITICAL OF THEM.

KEEPING VIDEO OF YOU THINK THAT REASONING IS VALID?

>> NO, NOT AT ALL.

NOT AT ALL.

I MEAN, WE KEEP THINKING THAT THE PROBLEMS ARE ISN'T DONE BY HUMAN.

DONE BY MACHINE AND IT'S IT'S WHAT IS THE RESULT WAS THE OUTCOME?

WHAT IS THE IMPACT AND A VIDEO THAT LIES IS A VIDEO THAT LIVES.

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO PRODUCED IT.

IT'S A VIDEO THAT LIES AND GETTING AROUND IT BY SAYING, OH, NO, THIS IS NOT IT'S NOT DEEP, FAKE.

IT'S CHEAP.

FAKE.

IT'S LIKE A WHO CARES AT ITS AND ITS EDITED VERSION OF THE HIGHLY EDITED VERSION OF THE WORLD.

THAT IS NOT A REAL REPRESENTATION OF THE WORLD, RIGHT.

CERTAINLY DEFAMATORY CONTENT.

IF THAT'S THAT NOT WHAT REALLY I MEAN, >> TO PRESENT THE PRESIDENT IN A WAY LIKE THAT THAT JENNIFER.

FOLKS ARE LYING A WHOLE LOT ON SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES TO BASICALLY POLICE THEMSELVES ON WHAT IS WHAT IS THEIR ROLE IN PARSING OUT THE DEEP FAKES IN THE ALTERED VIDEOS?

NOTHING UNTIL THEY'RE TOLD WHAT THEIR ROLE IS.

RIGHT.

LIKE THIS IS THE PROBLEM OF ANY FROM A SELF-POLICING IS THAT PEOPLE ONLY POLICED EDGE.

>> OF WHERE IT STARTS REALLY AFFECTING PROFIT.

AND SO IF WE ACTUALLY WANT SOCIAL MEDIA TO HAVE A MEANINGFUL ROLE IN THE SORT OF SELF-POLICING AND NEEDS TO COME FROM THE GOVERNMENT FIRST, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT CHRIS HAMMOND DIFFERENT COUNTRIES HAVE DIFFERENT.

>> REGULATIONS AROUND THIS.

CONGRESS HELD HEARINGS.

SHOULD THEY COME TOGETHER AND COME UP WITH SOME LIST?

THE STANDARD FOR THESE, WE SHOULD SAY, PRIVATE COMPANIES.

>> A CERTAINLY I THE THE NOTION THAT YOU'RE NOT ONLY, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SUPPORT MEDIA.

THAT IS THAT IS A DIRECTOR OF MISREPRESENTATION WHERE THE POINT OF THAT MEDIA IS TO MISREPRESENT AS OPPOSED TO SATIRICAL NOT MEAN HOLDING THE SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY'S FEET TO THE FIRE.

WITH REGARD TO THAT IS I THINK SUPER IMPORTANT.

BUT THE REALITY IS, IS THAT OF ALL THE PLACES WHERE WE'VE GOT TO WORRY ABOUT DEEP, FAKE SOCIAL MEDIA PROBABLY A TINY SLIVER.

I MEAN, A TINY SLIVER SOMEWHERE ELSE DOING IT OR THERE WAS THE ROBOT IS THE ROBO CALL OF BIDEN SAYING THINGS THAT BIDEN NEVER SAID BECAUSE THE MACHINE IS SAYING IT FOR HIM.

WE'RE GOING TO START SEEING VIDEOS THAT WILL BE REGULAR NEWS OUTLETS OF OF OF BIDEN DOING THINGS OF TRUMP DOING THINGS AND THEN WE'LL HAVE THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN.

AND THAT IS THERE IS A PICTURE OF TRUMP COMING OUT OF THE COURTROOM WITH THIS HAND UP AND HE HAD THESE LITTLE RED DOT TO PEOPLE LIKE IS HE SICK?

IS THIS, YOU KNOW?

AND THEY ASKED HIM ABOUT IT.

HE SAID, I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

MAYBE AND SAY AYE.

AND SO WHAT WE'RE SEEING IS NO MATTER WHERE THE VIDEO COMES FROM, NO MATTER WHERE THE IMAGES COME FROM, NO MATTER WHERE THE AUDIO COMES FROM.

WE'RE NOW LIVING IN A WORLD WHERE WE HAVE TO DISTRUST.

WE HAVE TO BE SKEPTICAL AND WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY HAVE REAL JUDGMENT ABOUT.

WHAT'S TRUE AND WHAT'S NOT IS GOING TO BE ADDED RESPONSIBILITY FOR NEWS ORGANIZATIONS LIKE OURSELVES TO FOR PERHAPS NOT.

>> NOT GO WITH A VIDEO OR PICTURE THAT WE GET RIGHT AWAY BEFORE WE TRULY CHECK THAT.

SO JENNIFER, TO WINTER, WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING IN THIS ELECTION CYCLE IN TERMS OF OF HOW PREVALENT DEEPFAKES AN FAKERY.

IT'S GOING TO BE LIKE CHRIS SAID, WE'VE ALREADY SEEN SOME OF IT.

SURE.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT GOING TO BE ANYTHING NEW IN MANY WAYS, RIGHT?

WE ALREADY CAME OUT OF THE 2020 CYCLE WHERE WE SAW BUTTS COMING IN AND RE-IMAGINING OUR POLITICAL LANDSCAPE.

>> IT'S OFTEN ORGANIZED AT THE LEVEL OF NATION STATE.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF RESOURCES TO DO THIS.

I THINK THE TALENTED GENERATIVE AI IS IT SUPERCHARGE.

IS IT BECAUSE I DON'T NEED TO MANAGE A HUGE CENTERS ABOUT CREATORS, FAKE COLORS OR WHATEVER.

I ACTUALLY NEED MUCH.

IF YOU ARE HUMAN DEDICATED TO THAT.

SO WE'RE WE'VE ALREADY STARTED SEEING IT RIGHT.

LIKE WE'VE ALREADY STARTED SEEING THE FAKE VIDEOS, THE FAKE PHONE CALLS.

AND I DON'T THINK IT'S JUST ON NEWS ORGANIZATIONS TO BE CAREFUL IN VETTING BECAUSE I THINK EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE SAYING EVENTUALLY PEOPLE ARE JUST GOING TO DISTRUST REAL NEWS AS WELL BECAUSE THAT WILL THEN BE CLIPPED OUT AND REPACKAGED AS THIS WAS MADE UP.

THIS IS THIS IS RECYCLED.

AND WHAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE IS AN INTENSIFICATION OF KIND OF BIAS CONFIRMATION.

AND THAT'S WHAT ALL OF THIS IS TO BE.

THAT IF LIKE A VIDEO IS SET TAKEN OFF OF FACEBOOK BECAUSE IT WAS DEEMED TO BE FALSE INFORMATION.

>> FOLKS THAT BELIEVE THAT SAY FACEBOOK IS BIASED OR FOLKS THAT ARE TAKING OFF.

SO PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE.

>> YEAH.

I MEAN, THERE IS THAT MOMENT IF YOU SEE IF YOU SEE A PIECE OF CONTENT AND YOU REALLY THINK, OH, NO, I THIS IS ACTUALLY CONFIRMING EVERYTHING I EVER BELIEVED ABOUT THIS GUY.

PROBABLY GOING TO BE FALSE BECAUSE IT WAS DESIGNED TO IT WAS DESIGNED FOR YOU TO AGREE WITH OR ITS DESIGN TERMS BEING NEGATIVE OR DESIGNED TO SKEW YOU TO MAKE YOU THINK HE'S HE OR SHE IS DOING SOMETHING THAT THEY HAVEN'T DONE.

THE THING IS THAT THIS IS THE DISTURBING THING SO 2 DAYS AGO THERE WAS UK COMPANY IN HONG KONG THAT HAD A ZOOM MEETING WAS A FINANCIAL GUY RUNNING FINANCES WITH THE CEO.

THE CO AND AT THE END OF THE MEETING, THEY TOLD HIM TO TRANSFER FUNDS AND IT WAS FANTASTIC.

HE TRANSFERRED ABOUT 25 MILLION DOLLARS INTO AN ACCOUNT.

NEITHER THE CEO THE CFO WAS A REAL PERSON.

I MEAN, THE CEO OF THE CEO WAS A REAL PERSON.

IT WAS COMPLETELY GENERATED BY MACHINE.

AND WE'RE NOW ENTERING A WORLD WHERE UNLESS YOU CAN REALLY HAVE A CONVERSATION THAT'S DEEP AND AN IMPACTFUL WITH SOMEONE AND YOU CAN GET TO SOMETHING REAL IN TERMS OF CONNECTION.

IT'S WHERE COMING CLOSE TO DOUBTING ZOOM MEETING.

WOW.

THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU WIRE ON SOME OF THESE >> JENNIFER, IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRACK DOWN THE FOLKS THAT ARE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOME OF THE SPECIAL IS GENERATIVE AI.

I MEAN, THERE'S LEAST SOME PERSON THAT SET THIS UP, CORRECT OR NO?

IS IT HARD TO DO THAT?

NO, IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DO THAT.

RIGHT NOW.

WE'RE IN THE CYBER CRIME RANGE.

SO WE ALREADY KNOW THAT ONCE PROBABLY IS GENERATED, IT'S GOING TO START GOING THROUGH A SERIES OF DIGITAL PROCESSEES THAT MASK.

>> THE IP ADDRESSES THAT ARE COMING FROM IT.

BECAUSE HUMANS, ESPECIALLY AI GENERATED, THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE A HUMAN FINGERPRINT ON THAT AT A CERTAIN POINT, RIGHT?

IT'S ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE ONLY GENERATED FINGERPRINTS.

AND SO WHAT ARE YOU TRACKING AT THAT POINT?

THEN?

IT'S JUST GOING TO BE VERY CAREFUL SLEUTHING THROUGH A DIGITAL ERA.

AND WE ALREADY KNOW THAT WE HAVE PROBLEMS DOING THAT.

WELL, FOLKS.

WATCH NEWS REAL NEWS AND READ NEWSPAPERS THAT SAYS THE LESSON I TAKE AWAY FROM THIS IS JUST SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY FOR.

>> FOR FAKERY.

I WANT TO THANK YOU, JENNIFER, TO WINTER AND CHRIS HAMMOND FOR SORT THIS OUT FOR US.

WE'RE BACK TO WRAP THINGS UP RIGHT AFTER THIS.
