the players potentially involved. after snap fell victim to facebook's imitation game, google -- could google be looking to copy the tech? the u.s. labor market hit its stride in july with the jobless rate hitting and 18-year-old. employers added 200-9000 jobs. the national economic director spoke with bloomberg earlier on the numbers. >> the president is completely right. these are good numbers. payroll nonfarm jobs. down to a 16 year low. we are bringing americans back into the workforce. set is what the president out to do and that is what the president is doing. caroline: joining us from new york is my guest cohost for the hour, david kirkpatrick.

enbar from the accelerated program school and me to train the next batch of software engineers. we are seeing. ahead. yes, they are hiring americans. but they are hiring at the lower wage in and of the equation. how many of those in the lower wages coming to you for retraining? >> we have a diverse population. you would be surprised. at the flatiron school, we train in intensive programs. we take students without any background in coding and in a short time prepare them for a job. you can see all of the reporting on our website. range fromunds investment bankers and lawyers who have discovered a new

passion for technology to artists, musicians, who used to .ork in minimum wage jobs anybody can learn this. the job market is exploding in this area. caroline: it is interesting where it is exploding. we are seeing the lower wage group starting to pick up in terms of the numbers. a new wayrting to see to order food. automation wast meant to be eating into lower wages. is it not? david: it does not seem to be so far. certainly, there are jobs that will be replaced by automation. industry getsogy more assured jobs will be destroyed by automation and artificial intelligence, we are having a hard time finding people to do the jobs now. that is happening across the developed world.

it causes me to not be so worried when you hear there are 60,000 jobs unfilled in the united states today. willpeople start saying ai cost jobs in the future, which might be the case in the future, we are in a good position and have time to develop automation because we need to substitute for people because there are not enough people in many spheres like coding. coding is one area that can be partially automated. caroline: where seeing tech giants doing a lot of hiring. 50,000 jobs added by apple. drill into the jobs. are they at the big tech giants? who is hungry for the talent you are producing? >> that is the first place people jump to. people here coding i think google and amazon. that represents maybe 20% people

hiring from a desperate is not a thate industry -- represents maybe 20% of the people hiring from us. it is not a single industry. every one of these companies have a website. they have to deliver services through technology to customers. that is where the big opportunities lie. when you see organizations like facebook wanting workers with specialty skills, maybe that is good or bad. that will not impact the broad population. the vast majority of the jobs are at companies where outdated technology is being used. that is where the opportunity is. it is not that hard to train people for these jobs. when you talk about automation like truck drivers going away, i think that is a really big fundamental shift we need to be paying attention to. those jobs exist now. we know those jobs will go away

soon. whatever jobs we will create to replace them will also go away. the reality is we live in a world in which things are changing fast. we have to get used to incorporating learning new schools into our economy and making that part of how people work. nobody is going to be up to go to college for four years and worked the rest of their lives. there is a shift in how we have to think about education broadly and how that plays into people's careers throughout the course of their lives. caroline: david, perpetual training, that is the way it is going to be? david: i think he is right. nothing i said should be taken to mean i think people should be complacent. this is an unbelievable moving target. what adam and the flatiron school are doing is fantastic. ideally, everyone should know how to code because we are moving into a world where we are increasingly coexisting with machines. every company is automated in one way or another. every company has some degree of coding.

we are moving into this hybrid landscape working alongside computers. computers are helping us do what we do. in some ways, we are helping them do what they do. that is the world we are going into. nobody should think they can keep doing things the way they were done before because that is not going to be the case. caroline: debate rages on. the flatiron school co-founder and c.e.o., adam enbar, great to have you with us. david kirkpatrick is sticking with us because i want your take on the next story. is planning to release a version of its smart watch that can connect directly to cellular networks. it aims to reduce reliance on the iphone according to people familiar with the matter. while the apple watch remains a small part of apple's overall revenue, tim cook said earlier this week it is the best-selling smart watch by a wide margin. joining us from san francisco is mark gurman who broke the story.

still with us, david kirkpatrick in new york. to gethy are they trying rid of the need for the iphone? >> right now, the watch requires the iphone if you want to download new apps or make phone calls on the go. now they want to turn it into its own device. this has been a goal from the beginning that now is beginning to become feasible with the help of intel. it will have a chip to control internet activities and you can leave the phone at home. caroline: you mentioned intel. what about other companies involved? they have to be talking to carriers already. >> apple is in talks with the four major united states carriers. sprint, t-mobile, at&t, and verizon wireless, to carry the watch by the end of the year.

they are talking to carriers internationally. the international coverage will be a small subset two carriers who already carry the iphone outside the u.s. caroline: europe comes last. you get to play with these things before us. it is do you think important we start to separate the phone from the watch to be a standalone feature and product? david: i think it is a logical idea. it is true when steve jobs returned to apple, he reduced the number of products. apple a widesingly range of things they are doing that grows by the day. i think this is a little confusing. i also highly doubt he can keep the battery life good enough that the watch can connect to all the wireless networks. i have an apple watch for fairly elementary functions. it is hard to keep it charged

for a whole day in many instances. i think it is a very appealing idea. i am somewhat skeptical it is something that there will be a huge market for. caroline: mark, respond to that. your piece talked about the battery life concerns as well. >> around this time last year, we were looking into the feasibility and possibility of the apple watch alongside the iphone 7. we knew this is something they had been working on for a while. we were told he year ago that was the plan but they were not able to pull it off with performance issues and the battery life snags. a year later, they are likely to push forward because of the more efficient modems from intel and the work they have been doing on the apple watch's battery life. what apple has been doing with the iphone for several years is adding new features.

they wanted to work at the same level as the prior year's model with added functionality. i think we will see an apple watch that gets the same battery life as previous models but with added functionality. it is a typical apple move. caroline: it will make things easier it seems. thank you very much for giving us your time. techonomy c.e.o. david kirkpatrick is sticking with us. sticking with the jobs numbers we reported on earlier, blue apron is closing in new jersey facility and moving 1200 jobs to a bigger site opening in the state later this year. than half of the employees have decided to move to the new warehouse. workers notified today of the changes will have the choice to relocate. stock hit itsron lowest level since going public in june. coming up, we speak with the

caroline: trivago reported results for its fiscal second-quarter. the search platform recorded earnings of $50 million reading estimates. caps off all shared -- shares drop -- it saw the shares drop 20% amid increased marketing spending. that represents the biggest move since the ipo in december. joining us on the phone is the

trivago c.e.o. from germany. thank you for staying up late and talking with us. talk to us about the ramp up in spending in terms of advertising. this seems to be what has eaten into the bottom line. >> we are always looking at where we see a positive return on investment so we keep spending. our share of the market is quite small so we still see a great opportunity to grow the company. we think it is not wise to totally go for broke. we will always do what we promised shareholders in the beginning. we will slightly increase our market over time but reinvest in growth. think 7% growth for the quarter is fine with us. caroline: when i'm looking at my bloomberg terminal, i can see the market capitalization dropping by $1 billion.

if you are investors knew this would be a strategy, why the selloff? does it worry you? we can be as transparent as possible about what we are doing. we have consistently told the market what we are doing. we are always telling them the same story for the last year. what you canneral see in the stock price trading up from our initial ipo price, you can see the growth over time. i think it will be going up and down. after year, see where we are.

we continue to manage for long-term profitability and then we will see where we are. caroline: where are you seeing most growth globally in terms of what the rest of the world is doing particularly well? where are you seeing yourself gaining market share and where do you want that market share to be? know, we arei gaining share in all markets. over 40% of our established market is in your and still growing -- in europe and still growing. we see growth coming from the rest of the world markets dominated by asian markets. there we have growth ratios of above 100% so we more than doubled revenue. caroline: i have to ask you. last time we sat down with in berlin --was in berlin. you told me google was the number one competitor. when you see e.u. coming for

google in terms of the shopping element, do you think google should be investigated for the way in which it treats rival hotel providers such as yourself on the platform? >> i think it looks like it. it looks like they ought to go forward with it. i think you should not make yourself dependent on that. we have shown we can grow. rely on thet to e.u. to fine them. .e keep on growing in terms of being in the travel sector, i think that is the right thing to do. caroline: it is always great to

get your take. it has been wonderful speaking to you live from düsseldorf in germany. atl ackman is taking aim automatic data processing. pershing square confirmed today it owns an 8% stake in the company but said it would only seek a minority stake in the board after it refused to extend the deadline. he is pushing for the c.e.o. carlos rodriguez to be replaced. the board rejected that request. they said in a statement we believe our board has a fresh perspective that will help us continue the strong track record of delivering value to shareholders. height of it is the the hyperloop and elon musk wants back in. we will break it down next. this is bloomberg. ♪

caroline: elon musk introduced his vision for a future sick -- futuristic transportation called the hyperloop in 2015. he made it clear he did not have any plan to execute the project because he had to remained focused on spacex and tesla. that plan has clearly changed. last month, he revealed on twitter he received "verbal government approval to build the hyperloop between new york and washington, d.c." here to give us thoughts, guest host david kirkpatrick. this is quite a turnabout in events. do you think it adds value to the hyperloop focus and some of the startups are going to get a boost or hindrance from this? david: anybody involved with hyperloop has already gotten a huge boost out of elon musk's initial idea and promotion of the idea and his reflective

glow. he is an astonishing person to have in your community. goes competitive with your company, that is another matter. it is very hard to know exactly what is happening because the article and speculation is somewhat based on indirect evidence, statements coming off that used toebsite say they would not go into this business for example. then you have also the fact elon company said to build roads under city to aid in traffic management but maybe building systems to build hyperloop tubes underground. he is one of the great thinkers of all history. i think you could think of him as almost a thomas edison for our day.

you would not want to be competing with him. on the other hand, you would want him talking about what you do. if you are a company already in the hyperloop business, it is sort of a yen and yang situation. caroline: we spoke with the chairman of one of those 1 it is, hyperloop called. for is what he said the other day about potential competition. >> it will take many brilliant minds and commitment from many people to push it forward. minds,e: many brilliant maybe elon musk's being one of them. do you think we will see this become a reality? one of the reasons the reports of his revised interest makes sense is the companies that have done work have made more record -- rapid progress than many of us would have expected. these companies were formed partly based on the enthusiasm

which sounded extremely pie-in-the-sky several years ago when it first emerged. but i do think, like so many amazingn our era, opportunities are arising more rapidly than anticipated. i think it could come quite soon in small places. it is not going to be new york to l.a. in two hours anytime soon. but i do think we might have boston to washington within 10 years or sydney to melbourne, which is one of the hyperloop companies. i think it is possible soon. caroline: david kirkpatrick, you're sticking with me. much more next. ♪ who knew that phones would start doing everything?

a mobile magazine design. evolved from media relationships google has for another product meant to help load articles faster. with us is david kirkpatrick, and joining us from san francisco is sarah frier. like.ver snapchat and the instagram copied stories very well from snap. now we see google managing to take a leap with discoveries. is this vindication for the business model or a warning? >> i think snap has been very inventive in terms of how we communicate. all these other internet companies are realizing we need to do some of that. there is a lot of copycatting going around. other facebook properties have

copied stories. now there is the mobile media product google wants to do. it is a concern because snap is a young company trying to prove it is providing something to users nobody else is. it is creating this addictive quality, especially among younger people. the question is whether people will feel like they do not need to download snap because they are getting the same thing elsewhere. caroline: a key concern as we head into next week with earnings coming from snap. are you optimistic or pessimistic on the stock? notd: on the stock, usually optimistic but i think snap has a secure place in the market in general. just because google began to serve up news stories similar to the way they might look on snap, i don't think that will significantly reduce the usage of snap by people who use it almost entirely to communicate with others and project their own image to others.

i think snapchat has a very strong position. it is true. snap has been an amazingly inventive company. when i look at this development, i see google borrowing from snap in large part to compete with facebook. facebook is where people increasingly get their news. google is a big news player. they are ranked second in the united states with 150 million unique visitors for news only after yahoo!. facebook is the place all the news sites in that getting distribution --end up getting distribution. facebook has been increasing speed of news stories displayed. you will see a scrum. news is going online. it is going mobile. snap is an innovator but will not necessarily be the primary news innovator. caroline: talk about the scrum david mentioned. we are not seeing content deals coming from google. we are seeing across the board from twitter and facebook.

why the obsession with media? >> there are a couple of components. first of all, there is a looming concern among brands about putting their ads next to content that is safe. remember the scare with youtube earlier this year where some brands saw they were being placed against extremist content or racist content. these projects are working directly with publishers to help ensure brand safety. they can say we are working with you vox, places you know can put your ads by, maybe pay a premium for that. it is very important for brand safety. the way people consume news has moved so much to the internet and social networks. in the wake of the last presidential election and a lot

of other conflicts around the globe, we have seen the way people consume news is not necessarily linked to the right information. we have seen a lot of misinformation, a lot of biased news. one of the things google has been working on is trying to make sure the users are informed. to do that, they are working more closely with publishers to make sure the higher-quality content gets better play on their platforms. caroline: sarah frier, always great to get your analysis. techonomy c.e.o., david kirkpatrick, you are sticking around. coming up, the debate over who is responsible for social media posts that pits congress against silicon valley. this weekend, we bring you our best interviews from the week including our exclusive conversations. tune in this saturday for "the best of bloomberg technology."

this is bloomberg. ♪

caroline: the debate over who is responsible for what people post on social media has been reignited. in the u.s., a new bill proposed would make it easier for state attorneys to go after tech companies accused of not doing enough to combat content. joining me to discuss is the c.e.o. of the internet association, the group that represents companies like airbnb and google. great to have you joining the show. section 230, the communications decency act, a 20-year-old statute. this is what is looking to be overturned. what do you believe it could do

in terms of the publisher's immunity or lack there of? first let me say that companies like that page and other websites like that that traffic and have other illegal activity have no place on the internet. they need to go after them and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law and beyond. we are working every day with the justice department in every state to ensure these actors are knocked off the internet and out of our society. the problem with the legislation we are seeing is it will tie our hands. technology companies are working with law enforcement in every state to stop these people. under this law if passed, it would not be able to do that. caroline: to get our viewers some back ground, that page.com seems to have been accused of enabling sex trafficking in particular. that is what lawmakers have been digging into and have proposed this rule change.

if not the change, what should be changed? how can they make it more focused so it does not knock away the baby out with the bathwater? >> we are working with the senate on expanding the department of justice's authority under the criminal code that would lead them more tools to go after back page and actors like that to assure there are no more victims from today forward. caroline: you say tech is a solution. we have heard in the fight against terrorist content, facebook has been looking to use counter narrative means to take the content off-line and tackle it. what are the companies you represent actively doing to ensure sex trafficking is not ignited by their platforms and other more serious content? >> our companies are the good

actors. they have a social conscience that is unparalleled in any other industry. both from starting organizations that fight this contact, to developing the technology and artificial intelligence to block set up stingds, operations to bring down people breaking the law and hurting society. all of that technology has been coming from engineers in our companies and backed by the companies. they are working every day with state and federal law enforcement to stop people from breaking the law and doing harm. caroline: but everyone might agree with the fact this industry is more than any other industry having a higher social conscience. they have taken some time to admit they have responsibility and a role to play. do you feel they all admit their responsibility now? >> i don't think our companies have a responsibility, but they care a lot about this. it matters to them.

the internet is a place that is largely a force for good. when you have a company like backpage.com on the internet, it gives everybody a bad name. i think the companies we represent really want to make backpage go away and all illegal content go away. they are working on that every single day. caroline: michael beckerman, thank you for joining us. coming up, more trouble at uber. reports the company knowingly rented defective cars. this is bloomberg. ♪

managers were trying to do the right thing. i think we are at a point now where anything about uber that has the slightest negative is seen as a total combination of the company that has had so much bad news about it, so many bad behaviors shown within it, that we are inclined to believe the worst about uber. this is a bad story could they did the wrong thing in some respects. i think it is seen as worse than it is because these guys are just cereal, stupid people. making errors time and time again. caroline: they have been trying to overhaul. they have new talent coming in. they are trying to change things. talk about a business model of leasing cars to drivers. do you think this is one they should be in? david: that is really their call. police damaged calls -- police
