12/8/2024: Boeing’s Whistleblowers, Big Crypto, A Tutor for Every Student, Thai Elephants

Less than a year after a panel blew off a 737-9 MAX airplane carrying 177 people thousands of feet above the ground, Boeing has faced four new federal investigations and appointed a new CEO to “restore trust.” Yet that has not slowed down the steady stream of Boeing whistleblowers coming forward with safety and quality concerns. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi meets with several of those whistleblowers in Washington, including one who is speaking out in his first television interview. Alfonsi hears about their serious concerns for commercial airplanes leaving their factories and why they weren’t surprised when that panel blew off the side of a Boeing airplane in the Oregon sky. Rarely in American politics has a new industry spent so much money, with such apparent impact, as the cryptocurrency business did in the last election. With the price of Bitcoin reaching record highs after the election, Margaret Brennan examines how much money the crypto industry spent, how effective it was, and what it hopes to get from the new “pro-crypto” Trump administration and Congress. Correspondent Anderson Cooper explores AI in the classroom and learns how the education nonprofit Khan Academy teamed up with the AI company OpenAI to enhance teacher efficiency and deepen student learning. Cooper previews a new voice and vision technology from OpenAI, and test-drives a pioneering online tutor named "Khanmigo" from Khan Academy to experience firsthand how the two companies are hoping to help shape the future of education. For centuries, the people of Thailand have held a deep reverence for their national animal - the Asian elephant. Today that reverence and co-existent relationship is being tested. Deforestation and overdevelopment are driving these 10-thousand-pound animals out of the wild and into farms and villages in search of food - creating a growing (and sometimes dangerous) human-elephant conflict. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi travels into the forests of Thailand to meet with villagers who are dealing with weekly elephant incursions and talks to American and Thai scientists who are developing novel solutions to combat the problem.
