3:33 pm
see a great potential when it comes to international and refugee talents in germany. many of them bring in 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 this website. recently, they brought in some of germany'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, the international talents. and that comes also with quite some educational work. so
3:34 pm
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 holding back to the labor market in germany. bigger cities tend to have an edge over a smaller towns like nestling and when it comes to hiring international talent at the holt and silver keyona so can knows that create to beauty 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 and berlin, that an esl, you know, of course you have to be creative for one thing. and you can also work remotely for certain job, which we are happy to do, of course. and that can work really well,
3:35 pm
but not so much for selling the escape. i'm in tennessee visa study design, in fact ukraine before fleeing to germany to hire her. so to got creative, she found an apartment to lease it to live. and so she was able to move to where her work is not long ago. he's an update at 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 fully. 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 growing a team needs that every one counts more
3:36 pm
time for your families, 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. yes, me my body. go how 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 for my hobbies like sports. this gives me a better work life balance independence. ok, so all i know german window manufacturer oil now is also planning to test the 4 day
3:37 pm
week technicians. different menda is looking forward to more time with his family, but wonders whether he'll be able to squeeze his workload into a shorter week. i think 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 day less for food i need just unplug. so we'll have to change our flow is a bit less than the new setup will be tested in a 6 month pilot program. it's being coordinated by cost in my a co founder of berlin consultancy, interpreting to together with the university of minster. almost 50 companies from various sectors are taking part you helped with is one major motivation, of course is the shortage of skilled work. it's. i've been beat safin. companies are trying to figure out how can we keep outlook is happy even stated, how can we make the workload more manageable and also reduce the number of sick days or 10 types calculated on how can we feel job openings baptist?
3:38 pm
i'm more quickly bestsellers. net opposite some studies from other countries such as britain confirmed that the 4 day work week has many benefits, sick days were reduced by 20 percent. and in some cases, productivity actually increased other things. and these are business as we did see, however that compared to gemini, the industry and trade sexes were under represented by that here. so that's one of the things we're trying to remedy with this german test this on beckett oil down general manager heading loop. hopes that the for 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 only for a so that means optimizing the coordination of our work flows and uplift and sign them once a month. if we realize at any point that this is hurting
3:39 pm
a competitive nice bottom line with a failed the test. and then we'll return to our current 5 day one way, some up and some toggle 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 have 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 natalie stock, a definite kind of include 12, there's a cultural shift under way, at least with my age group. and the people i know here in berlin via,
3:40 pm
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. she don't, she saving darn 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 eye catching images to help with your homework. artificial intelligence is changing how we live today. but this is
3:41 pm
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 euro in 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 a hold of us to cindy. i hope that in a few years will lose bucket today's office. look much like we look back at the heavy manual labor that the industrial revolution made obsolete when we mentioned each of these, this and say what a horrible in human building that was. so it made people depress, pursuing costs, all sorts of problems. and i believe we can make a change of doors. but a,
3:42 pm
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 others 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 these are taking, this technology will, must, at least in the way future generations think and learn the pennsylvania of a sort of. busy where the technology is being developed and according to what
3:43 pm
standards is, keep your pants started for 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 clock and she know because sure, and china are a startup, it's getting state support or just behind the data pace for the entire population. and that's that help. but overall, the us in china are ahead because that benefiting from determination, under major capital and fusion was a cause and capitana falls. 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 generator they, i like touch the bt and all the other systems and linking them to other technologies into what's gone on that there's a real treasure trove of possibilities. i've only just begun to explore this
3:44 pm
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 i 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 a i the college. he's in 2027, europe largest innovation park for artificial intelligence set to go online and the city of highland and southwestern germany in partnership with us and told us as of alpha, us. and our final question is a dangerous use that every tool can be dangerous. so i invite for one because a tool that gets a super powers also gives
3:45 pm
a super powers that we shouldn't really have any. that's true the criminals, as well as to tell a terry and states use any tool, could full and of course my foot could be used incorrectly and then to damage the e. u is already planning for this brave new world. it has proposed new regulations for the future. a part of the visual intelligence babies are adorable, and babies represent the future consumer spending, economic growth. the workforce robust 1st rate can get i could amik been it 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, the birth rate has been slowing down. in 1950,
3:46 pm
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 the kind of expects it development in most places because you kind of make developments 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 modem kind of make lifestyle is simply not compatible in most places for most people is having and it gets the global for to the rate is currently at 2.3. meaning that women give birth to an average of just over 2 children. in africa, the birth rate is over 4 children per woman. while in australia,
3:47 pm
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 scrapped, it's one child's policy. but chinese couples are no longer keen on having large families to the china has about 1400000000 people rule. what good job china is for killing the rate, remain stable. each woman would have $1.00 children on average. the phone that would mean china is population were dropped to about 1100000000 by 2050, and 390000000 by 2100. 0 yeah. and i mean, yeah. so your studies in china is demographic problem. it's aging society would grow worse. these. what should the do
3:48 pm
a suitable for you saw the jack the if 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 cedric 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, 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 and are even reluctant to get married. the concerns about financial security are now having an impact on family planning. but the younger generation has other worries to contend with. like the environment and
3:49 pm
climate change, the child free movement is catching on. we shouldn't be having kids as a society. we shouldn't be having children while they're still children. and really prior to climate change, just kind of a nail in the coffin to the argument. but yeah, not having children means that our children won't suffer and they won't be competing with other children who are already suffering for resources during your 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 bit 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 a demographic situation. so less workers, less consumers that is going to prove to be
3:50 pm
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 are 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 it
3:51 pm
cannot 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. ringback 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 as holy festival can break and billions. what we, where, what we eat and drink. 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 estimated $10000000.00 tons of colored powder are sold in india?

3:53 pm
claimed carnival as its own. and the festivities became increasingly elaborate and lucrative. today it's a huge money spinner. the cost is alone bringing more than $200000000.00 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 in 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, dex out in orange, in honor of the royal families colors. the day itself celebrates the birthday of kings dilemma. alexander, extra trains are scheduled to bring people to the party hotspots in the big cities
