8:20 pm
on the forefront of all of this germany it seems like just a long way to go in that regard and knows that after all that's ways visiting and. own way to go for germany artificial intelligence clearly the most important feel that germany is dramatically lagging notably china and our resident china watch a clip of is with me in the studio to for so long the narrative was that china is lagging europe and the u.s. in all in all fields have high tech really not that seems to change what happened i think we have to forget about a lot of our preconceptions about china and technology for many years that was low end manufacturing and then other countries got cheaper so china is now thinking about how it can advance and it's focusing very much on innovation and it needs a domestic homegrown technology it spent 300000000000 dollars last year importing microchips which is more than is spent on importing oil and it wants to do it itself so it's a. new approach now by china the government in china is boosting its specially

artificial intelligence what exactly are they doing and could that be a model for european companies it could be a model in some ways they there's a lot of state support that's one thing that is more problematic in europe than previously and a lot of it is used for security which may not be an ideal model for many european governments as well but at the same time there's a sort of a flexibility and there's an energy about the innovation sector in china and the way the tracks venture capital and the way money is invested that is definitely something that we could probably learn here in europe there are also challenges though that china is facing. i would rather well there's we've seen the the trade war is probably the chief form some of its national champions in terms of technological advance like qual way are under a lot of pressure and are from the us there's a lot of pressure on intellectual property and about where china is getting its ideas from i think china likes to absorb ideas that there is copying going on but
8:22 pm
it certainly picks up these ideas and and runs with them and comes up with new ideas but in order to keep doing that and keep that innovation going it's going to have to really foster creativity on the ground in china very briefly worked in germany especially due to no longer lag behind well i think germany can can certainly learn a lot it's cooperating in things like autumn most of ai for example i think germany has to be careful that it protects its ideas but it can also it can again learn from this flexibility and the big market of course in china where it can try out these ideas cliff athena thank you very much. chinese steel products have come under fire again after the u.s. launched fresh tariffs against the country on monday steel from mexico is also affected washington justified the move by claiming the 2 countries are helping them in a factory with unfair subsidies their decision comes amid ongoing tensions between

tune of 25 percent of his fixed income salary so if that's a $21000.00 we don't know yet but if it was the same amount as last year and that would mean that he would be buying of his own volition an additional some 800000 euros in shares now that sounds. like a great promise demonstrates dedication and conviction but at the same time you have to wonder under what pressure he has to demonstrate to skeptical investors how how concerned and how adamant the bank is about this oddly enough to lift the share price that really bugs thank you very much. california's alman farmers are caught in the middle of donald trump's trade conflict last year the farmers were able to sell their produce to india to help offset the effects of china tariffs on elements but now sales to the subcontinent are in jeopardy too. jake winger's family has been farming in this area for more than

8:28 pm
a big question mark as we just are getting into the harvest season. it's a question that's likely to remain open until the end of the year when growers send to the co-op for processing and export. that's when they'll find out how much their harvest is worth on they'll learn the true cost of the trade war.
