7:33 am
victoria bowman and work here come in. it's a job platform for new commerce and refugees looking for work in germany. we see a great potential when it comes to international and refugee talons in germany, many of them bringing great qualifications and we also see people who are learning german very quickly. they're highly motivated, so it's also part of the work to make companies show more flexibility and it's also one of the task is empowering them. work here x as a bridge between job seekers and employers at his office in berlin. work here continues to refine its website. recently, they brought in some of jeremy's biggest companies to advertise on their platform. companies that post job opportunities pay for the services that helped them connect with people who are looking for work. we are, for instance, optimizing the job postings, so to make sure that we are actually also managing to target the, the,
7:34 am
the international talents. and that comes also with quite some educational work. so that can include advising businesses and ways to support their international employees. right now they're talking to so it gets from voted, sold about educational opportunities and are you still interested in looking around for language courses? i think we sent you some more information about that. but i don't know if there was anything that was quite the right fit but the language isn't the only thing that's moving back to the labor market in germany. bigger cities tend to have an edge over smaller towns like nestling, and when it comes to hiring international talent at the old silver keyona so can knows that creativity and openness can make all the difference is rid of assigning him by lean shanella you mind i would probably find some one more quickly in berlin that an esl, you know, of course you have to be creative for one thing. and you can also work remotely for
7:35 am
certain job, which we are happy to do, of course. and that can work really well, but not so much for selling. so let's get that name. natasha. liza study design and 5 to few crane before fleeing to germany. to hire her. so to got creative, she found an apartment to lisa to live and so she was able to move to where her work is not long ago. he's updated the company's packaging and learn more about cultural differences along the way that i'm working like really fast for sure, because silicates told me all the time, like you're working so quickly, because sometimes when you doing something really quick and it can make it better resolve but when you take your time, you can make a better product. these days to team collaborate mostly in english because
7:36 am
growing a team needs, but every one counts more time for your family, for your partner, for exercise, and to relax. wouldn't that be great? a 4 day work week could be adjust the ticket, especially if you get the same pay. and employers are starting to get on board because when it comes to hiring and retaining skilled workers, working less could be a huge selling point. you guys, me, my body, go how it works for brain guards and i p company in munich, that's testing a 4 day week. so she works just 4 days a week instead of 5 for the same pay and likes the new arrangement of inflation plan tag. it's nice to have an extra day off from my hobbies like sports, and this gives me a better work life balance, independence. ok,
7:37 am
so all right and off german window manufacturer. oil now is also planning to test the 4 day week technician stephan menda is looking forward to more time with his family, but wonders whether he will be able to squeeze his workload into a shorter week. price thing i'm fulfilled this one is a won't be easy for somebody will have to finish the same amount of work. but how about the last one i need is implying. so we'll have to change our flow is a bit with life then the new setup will be tested in a 6 month pilot program. it's being coordinated by cost in my co founder of berlin consultancy intro, putting together with the university of minster, almost $50.00 companies from various sectors are taking part you helped with is one major motivation of cost as the shortage of skilled work. and so i've been beat safin. companies are trying to figure out how can we keep outlook as happy he understands how can we make the work load more manageable and also reduce the
7:38 am
number of sick dice. so 10 types of cognitive and how can we fill jump openings baptist? i'm more quickly bestsellers. net opposites. studies from other countries such as britain confirmed that the 4 day work week as many benefits sick days were reduced by 20 percent. and in some cases, productivity actually increased other things having diesel business. as we did see however, that compared to gemini, the industry and trade sexes were under represented. see it by the here. so that's one of the things we're trying to remedy with this jim and test son. beckett, oil them, general manager heading loop, hopes that's a 4 day work week. will help the company attract and keep skilled workers in the pilot program. they'll be keeping a close eye on performance and productivity decide on we'll be looking at optimizing processes and reducing and efficient downtime, including possible idle time is as so that means optimizing the coordination of our
7:39 am
work flows and uplift them. sign them once a month. if we realize at any point that this is hurting a competitive nice bottom line with a failed the test, the website, and then we'll return to our current 5 day one, which i mean some up to and some type of models. but that's also how bring guards and unix, these things managing director, marching farmer says the 4 day work week can only succeed of productivity and performance increase. that's why farmer is also looking to streamline team meetings, which has been a major time suck. this has to be done as commodities that we've made our meetings more structure to the top. what does this pull to? and there's now at least one person who runs the meetings and make sure that we move through the agenda efficiently the over at interpret. now, the consultancy in charge of the pilot project is already reaping the benefits of a shorter work week. they instituted a 4 day set up 7 years ago and say it's help them attract a young, highly skilled workers like naturally stock. a definite, kind of include 12,
7:40 am
there's a cultural shift under way, at least with my age group, and people i know here in berlin via we'd like to work, but we don't appreciate being overworked. the idea certainly has its advocates in iceland in britain, 90 percent of the companies testing the 4 day work week. they're stick with it. the german pilot project will end in august and then they'll assess whether a shorter week works here to a fashion model made entirely of pixels a football star who can speak languages. he doesn't actually know for me. see, i don't sure savings are one true. and the artist, salvador dali, brought back to life. i generated deep sick videos can be very hard to tell from the real thing. an artificial intelligence was gaining ground in the workplace. so as a guy coming to steal our jobs, to from catching images,
7:41 am
to help with your homework. artificial intelligence is changing how we live today. but this is just the beginning. hey, i is always what was impossible yesterday. join us andrew. this is a star on germany's a, i've seen it started to receive more than 500000000 euros and investment commitments. he's working on an administrative, a application that's intended to allow office workers to find their documents and data in a snap and never have to dig their way through mountains of paper work to get i hope it was suspended. i hope that in a few years. well look at today's office, look much like we look back at the heavy manual labor. the industrial revolution made obsolete when we met and say what a horrible in human building that was. so it made people depress, assuming caused all sorts of problems. and i believe we can make
7:42 am
a change of joyce's bus a, i like google's when the air is already making a seemingly impossible reality, creating realistic looking images out of thin air and fakes some using other it's dangerous. but what is artificial intelligence? exactly? i d systems that exhibit intelligent human like behavior. so will a, i put us out of work. europe has a shortage of skills labor. so there's plenty of jobs to go around. but office workers, administrators, and lawyers who lose their jobs to a i might not be all of that came to work inspectors where there's a shortage like care work for manual trades, a i as a place to transform our economy. and that's not all the people taking this technology
7:43 am
well, most certainly should of the way future generations i think and learn the sort of. busy where the technology is being developed, and according to what standards is key. european startups are getting more financing, but it's still peanuts compared to what us competitor open a i is raking in for example. and there's no putting a number on investment in china, a country that's determined to be a leader in the field club. and she know because sure, and china are a startup, it's getting state support will just be handled, a data pace for the entire population. and that's a help, but overall, the us in china, our head because that benefiting from determination, under major capital, the infusion was a cause capitana. i love policy. as for europe, it does have plenty of conventions, conferences and a growing number of new business concepts. and what fascinates me the most right now is the prospect of using generate evey. i like touch the bt and all the other
7:44 am
systems and linking them to other technologies to look into what's gone on. that there's a real treasure trove of possibilities. i've only just begun to explore this a campus in berlin instead and exploring those options. brimming with high tech security. the campus is home to start at 14 next generation a application. and the infrastructure allow small and mid side started to test their demo versions here. this one, for example, kind of done a fine nearby objects in 5 years. people will not primarily talk about, okay, i'm building any i company anymore. but just all the different applications, products that are out there are enabled by ai technologies. in 2027, europe's largest innovation park for artificial intelligence is set to go online and the city of highland and southwestern germany in partnership with us and told us as of alpha. and our final question is a dangerous you said so, so every tool can be dangerous divided by the one because
7:45 am
a tool that gives a super powers also gives a super powers that we shouldn't really have any shots. that's true for criminals as well as to tell the terry and states is there any tool could fall in the crush my foot. you this could be used incorrectly and then do damage. the e. u is already planning for this brave new world and have to propose new regulations for the future. a part of special intelligence babies are adorable. and babies represent the future consumer sending economic growth the workforce robust 1st rate commit economic boom. that is a high birth rate, always a good thing. are there limits to growth? and the number of people our planet can support their own more people on the planet than ever before. but in recent years,
7:46 am
the birth rate has been slowing down. in 1950, the global population was 2 and a half 1000000000 over the next 4 decades, the global population doubled. but now it's projected to peak and 2080 at about 10000000000. why is that? it's kind of expected development in most places because it kind of make development higher buttons ation increasing education, especially for women places facilitate like higher for to the parents are expected to experience the concept for to the day. because the modems can, i think lifestyle is simply not compatible. in most places, for most people is having many kids. the global fertility rate is currently at $2.00, meaning that women give birth to an average of just over 2 children. and at,
7:47 am
for goods the birth rate is over for children for women. while in australia, latin america and asia, the average is about to the north america and europe have the lowest fertility rates. some east asian countries have unusually low birth rates, including korea, japan, and even china. in 2015, china scrap this one child policy. but chinese couples are no longer keen on having large families to the china has about 1400000000 people. rule. what the good job of china is for telling you right, remain stable. each woman would have $1.00 children on average. the phone that would mean china is population would drop to about 1100000000 by 2050, and 390000000 by 2100. 0 yeah. and i mean, yeah. so the, your study in china is demographic problem. it's aging,
7:48 am
society would go worse. here's what she has. i don't want to do a suitable for you. so the lawton, jack b, give china is population decreases even faster than expected. it could see some massive labor shortage and plummeting economic growth. but many young chinese couples are remaining childless for financial reasons, but friendship, which i did senior senior china is use unemployment rate right now is very high. yeah. yeah. young people are having difficulty just supporting themselves. gotcha. it's impossible for them to start a family or raise children to what's going on. and this is why china is marriage rate is also very low. these days. the number of marriages in 2023 was half of what it was in 2013. so people are reluctant to have children that are even reluctant to get married. the concerns about financial security are
7:49 am
now having an impact on family planning. but the younger generation has other words to contend with. like the environment and climate change, the child free movement is catching on. we shouldn't be having his society, we shouldn't be having children while they're still children and needs really private requirement change just kind of a nail in the coffin to the argument. but yeah, not having children means that our children don't suffer and they won't be competing with other children who are already suffering for resources during a climate crisis. so yeah, it pays off a double in that sense. we may need child list for ecological reasons is a radical choice. the could benefit the environment, but would also pose new challenges to economic development. we've never been able in human history to generate growth with such
7:50 am
a demographic situation. so less workers, less consumers that is going to prove to be a big challenge because our entire system health care infrastructure, taking care of the elderly, etc, is predicated upon economic growth, which has been driven largely by population but, but population decline could also make life easier for the coming generations, fewer people could also mean less competition. in these places, low population gross or declining population, you may put a lower pressure on the housing market and may make housing cheaper. it can also improve father employment options and agents and job opportunities for the smaller and smaller cohorts of people. and last but not least, also benefit some fewer humans were already depleting natural resources at an alarming rate. the less people means that get to
7:51 am
that to get attention for less pollution for, for more space, for wild life and for a slot, for fun on the floor. but economically, it will be a challenge to challenge, but also an opportunity relaxing, celebrating a night out or a holiday. it's good for the soul, for the community and the economy to large scale festivals like india and fully festival. can reagan billions, what we, where, what we need and strength, it all keeps the economy humming. the holy festival in india, carnival in germany. king, stay in the netherlands. 3 a norm is traditional celebrations, and a real boost to their local economies. so how do businesses benefit each year and
7:52 am
estimated $10000000.00 tons of colored powder are sold in india? the other traditional holy products are now increasingly being made in india rather than china, which is used to handle up to 75 percent of production. in germany, the city of cologne is the epa center of carnival and hundreds of thousands party in the streets. kind of advertising during carnival clone does not for 6 days. even though it's not a public holiday, many businesses are closed for us. monday. everyone either takes part or go somewhere else, because there are people who don't like it, but they leave cologne during carnival because it's impossible to do anything without bumping into crowns, princesses and crocodiles for the in provide. so come cost students are part of the fun, according to legend masks like these good drive away evil spirits. a tradition that
7:53 am
some say dates back to pagan times over the centuries of the christian church claimed carnival as its own. and the festivities became increasingly elaborate. and lucrative today, it's a huge money spinner. the customs alone bringing more than 200000000 euro is a year in germany. in cologne, for example, hotels are booked out and rooms cost 50 percent more than normal. but it's the food industry that really rates and the profits an estimated $800000000.00 euros a year. well, beers king in germany, in india, drinks made with bonds, are the and toxic and dive choice. in the netherlands. alcohol consumption on tuesday got out of hand. so now people are only allowed one drink at a time in public spaces. the entire country dix out in orange, in honor of the royal families colors. the day itself celebrates the birthday of
7:54 am
changing them. alexander, extra trains are scheduled to bring people to the party hotspots in the big cities . gigantic flea markets are also part of the festivities. about half of all the judge people buy something they're bringing in some 290000000 euros across the country. the time who's or another prophet maker with bakery selling up to 2000 up the traditional pastries on a single day. the counterpart to tom who's in india is good g, as in germany, can be sort of a sweet treat of choice. they're often thrown as a gift from the passing flo. so then there are the artists who the caching during festivals like this, where ever they're held continue current here in cologne. there's an entire music sector that earns of flipping off of carnival from those 6 days. and maybe a few weeks before that carnival was a festival that's gone global. it began in europe including in italy and especially
7:55 am
venice were elegance, ruse the day there's even a contest for the most beautiful mask. the tradition spread to countries like brazil, which feature spectacular parades with music and dance. the rio carnival is the biggest and best known in the world units, celebrations drawn more people every year. the more troubles there are in the world, the more people are glad for a few days of joy, where they can really just let their hair down. remember, kitchen oscar lessons and kind of holding festival celebrations are meanwhile, also held around the world. in countries like france, it's a secular festival, a celebration of color that welcomes the arrival of spring. whether you're looking for a new job or planning to launch a company, planning
