leg. is an accomomplished busisinessmann t the godfather f customer relationship management apps or so called c. r. m. he's also the ceo. of a startup called c. three a. i. this has just been valued. at three billion dollars tom siebel hello and thank you for being with us today good afternoon. see also the author of this at wall street journal bestseller digital transformation. at survive and thrive in an era of mass extinction by it resented books. in this book you draw an interesting parallel about how life evolved on earth in what's happening. in the business world why is it similar what are we witnessing today. well in the natural world- we've had a life on the planet for say three and a half billion years. and in the last four hundred and forty million yeaears wee he we've had. five mass extinctionn events.. the most recently being this katie extinction where this. meteor hit the you could tan sixty five million years ago. and i believe order of 80% of the species on earth became extinct at that time. and after

each of these mass extinction events and- that would b be followed by a- kind o of a mass re speciation wherere new spepes who comee to exit india existetence so. eighty six year sixty five million years ago the diamond dinosaurs disappeared for the planet. and that vacuum was filled by mammals so that turned out to be work out well for. homo sapiens at least so far. now when you get into the corporate boardroom today- you talk to the ceo. n. e. i. shanghai beijing paris rome london new york san francisisco. the ceo te topf the ceo's agendnda. is this thing called digital try ask. there's a man. to do usually transfer. and it's something critically important as fast you ex existentialist. and i spent a lot o of time thinking about this in in you know like what is going on here. so i am of course in the information technology industry

this is a very rapidly growing space. and that space we're seeieing. some new vectors in te twenty first century that are changing everything. and these include. elasticic cloud computing big data the internet of things in this phenomenon that we call artificial. intelligence and at the confluence of these factors you find digital transformations and i. you ask why. are people so focused and digital transformation. well just like in the naturural world.. in the corporatee w world and fouour ie twenty firstst century we are going through a a mass extxtincn of that. 52% of the fortune five hundred companies have disappeared in the last eighteen years when they're gone you know where's kodak where's westinghouse- we're you know toys r. us. t there just these companies have had vaporized and it's estimated that as many as you know 70% of the compananies t that exist toy will be gone in the next twenty years. so what is going on. is

there's a rash what we're seeing companies with new dna like.. tesla like like airbnbb like amazon that are all a abou. artificial intelligence big data elastic cloud computing in retail lies in traransportation and hospitality in automotive industries. and these companies wawas new dna. our our our our replacing the vacuum by these companies that are going out of business so that's what i think is going on. so it's all about how well companies will be able to harness those four at technologies i now like to touch up on a statement that you made in your book in which you say that artificial intelligence. will be. as big or bigger of or as just. as was the at the end revolution knowing what happened after the industrial revolution was world war two what do you have in mind is it a- an apocalyptic vision. or daniel bell published a very important book in nineteen seventy three he was a sociologist from harvard he published a book called the coming post industrial society

and he predicted in nineteen seventy three this is before the mini computer before the personal computer for the internet. before the cell phone as you can imagine that okay that would that that the world. was about to- experience. at a- a resestructuring of the global economomy on the order of the industrial revolution and he called thiss the post i industrl society or the information age. and in fact in the last fifty years everything he predicted as become true so now information technology has changed the way. you know w the struructure of the economy the way we work so it we entertain ourselves the way that wewe commununicate. the way we l loot what's going on in it- and you know public securities today and how much of the public security iss it about that dominated by informationn technology comompanies.. so it s it has changed everything. now i want to have your take on on of the trade war between the united states and china i just

recently heard microsoft president brad smith say that. both countries are on the verge of a tech cold war- what's your opinion on this and who do you think what will win this battle is a battle. about artificial intelligence about five g. what is it all about do you think well- peten said letter mentions set in two thousand seventeen. that whoever wins the war on a. i. dominates thehe world i b believe that's true ad it will n not be rash. and so yu will either be a ight where there are massive investments goingg on- in advancing artificial intelligence for. controlling peoplple- sococial compliance- weapons systems defense systems that the weweaponization of a. i.. or the united s states so we are in a a nonon kinetic warfare with china today. and they are investing billions of dollars they are educating more people t they are spending moree m money they're fifiling more patents. and i

think there's a reason to be concerned if things continue to- go their current- the way they are going today i think china might win this war. and the call on the u. s. government to do a little bit more i think of f the western governments d don't. do more. in this area will be very sorry. now let's talk your star up i just it was at three- billion dollars it's called c. three a. i. and it's helping. a companies take the digital turn maybe give us briefly an example of how you help your clients in that matter. is so we spent the last decadede and almost. three quarters of a billion dollars billion a softwarere platform that allows our c customers like. and now ad she shells ignited says air force- a apply ai to massive social and economic benefits so this is about. you know cleaner energy renewable energy more efficient manufacturing lower inventory costs lower cost

products more satisfied customers. and so we do this in banking telecommunications- smart cities- a d defense intelligence- clean energy. now at you decided to set up your headquarters here in europee in- morning yourr your hatat your gr can headquarters are here in france he seemed to appreciate france a lot is the still the case after. all the strikes and why do you think it's a good country to invest well i think that you. paris is very centrally located it's a great- transportation hub we- france offers you know-ery- deepp and rich resource in their human capital they have you know some of the best research and educational institutions on the planet like a cold poly technique. and be a grereat compmputer s scientist great daa scientists great human capital so i think that is siebel systems paris was our headquarters for a media that

works out very well for us and so paris's i had quarters for c. three dot a. i as we- as we grow our footprint- throughout europe in the middle east. i started this interview basing that you'd literally stared at death in the i was referring of course to what happened back in two thousand nine and sincnce then you know w when you were on if it's a fari- you were attacked by an elephant and you. u underwent nineteen surgeries i think right after that and you weren't able to walk for four years i'm just wondering on a personal level- the man that you are what how did it change your life to have to go through that. yeah i was sent a phohoto safarari in t taa and has attttacked andnd mauledy an elephant and- my left leg was gored job broke a bunch of red mist the- elephant stepped on my right leg and my foot came off. and he said it was pretty challenging and i spent the next four years at nineteen reconstructive surgeries and i walkeded four years laterer good news is today i'm'm fine- but i

think it puts things into perspective. about e edo you approach risk a littlee bit differently and- it also you know you. eat on the most of the things that you. worry about before an elephant kathy think there. theyey really not imimportant all and said hohow . prioritizeze what's the know why simple for what's not change the way you think. and lastly for those of our viewers who are maybe thinking about starting at their start up for their company. what what's your advice to them. the comic domain expert today and you know the and the idea that. i think that you know whether we're dealing with bioscience with the deal infnformation technology where there would be a material science travel transportation there is no substitute for getting an education and being a domain expert in that field secondly before i started company i woululd go to workrk for a comoy

there's a leader in that field okay. and you don't learn how it's done how customers engage the language of the business how contracting is done how customers are supported show that you can be you know more successful out of the gate. tom c. thank you very much indeeeed for that. it's the end of this interview but to stay with us here on france twenty four. new orleans baton rouge lafayette louisianana's largest cities could hardly sounds more french in the eighteenth century a huge french territory stretch from the great lakeses to the gulf of mexico. but it was gradually reduced by war and the northerners moved south to louisiana. they're called cations they spoke french but only briefly as it became illegal to do so in nineteen twenty one. it wasn't until nineteteen sixty four that frenh was reinstated ever since the cations have been striving to keep their language and

traditions alive. folks from louisiana see themselves as a people u. s. citizens but bears of a special identity they're committed to defending at all cost. cajun country revisited all this week all fronts twenty four. this week down to with these in barbados not as s much for its beaches. i think love of the flying g fish. we need to investigate t this iconon of the carribean islands printed inside it's possible. stamped on the wonderlic clean. to its national station but today it's under threat. my name is. all

my friends and my family know misha and. thirty years ago a for a side project management saddam was plentiful you that farr. hello a day this far in addition are the track in the last two years this is a stock. traded in a lot. on australian well right now. my first name. it is noticeable two years. yeah when i was growing up i think. and i just and that your family for the whole be. a longer. right now famous. it is less than a market most of the restaurants on the- but not a poor. i will not stop fishing

sure but- if everything come back. but eight eighteen right now i mean look like there's going abouout we don't. the sana barbara says no plantations to deny us of o our soul. i am kirk humphreys i am the minister of my time there i'm'm really gonna be in barbados. you're not the person responsible for the decline lantis fanfest lake coldwater. we know the waters in the region again a warm we know that we knonow we're not because in the i mean if you have a reduction if this is going to be. a threat t to our security as a matter of fact we're seeing a reduction if that this and other. i think it is directly linked to climate change of course the other thing. i mean. we have to change it maybe sense. as well

we have to be able to go a lilittle bitor the pasast. it's my great. but that that has been happening for generations what has not been happening for generations has been. changing climate so basically have not yet developed the past. month we need to get this thing resolved the industry but also so i can sleep at night. here in barbados the flying fish became increasingly scarce with the arrival of sargassum. thank you in case for the b brown alge in beta carotene back in two thousand eleven rereleasing a a robibinson standnds as it decomposes on the pristine beaches it's origins of remain a mystery but researchers do believe two things one that like hurricanes the sargassum can. be expected every. and the

disaster is entirely next. i'm patrick mahoney. the city has always been my passion i'm fisherfolk my inference one of my main research- opportunities to learn all we can adoptpt i become more resilient the problem with sargassum influences is the remain fairly unpredictable as where on when they went and fought on with what severitity. some of the things we're working on- in projects such as a field cc farfetchched inclulude a dot tensions the sargassum- such as fishermen- modifying how the fish on the equipment they use there's several early warning systems not related to sargassum. including those available globally- from satellites and remote sensing- we're also working on smartphone. that was put some allow communities official for.

several islands to alert each other however these are difficult times with conditions not previously experience i'm not is something we're working with them. so the way. barbados is already starting to adapt by not only fishing further away but also searching for an hour. into the flying fish a species that is attracted to the sargassum but the locals are learning to live. my name is and i am a fish vendor by concert in myself this process are. for the after the disappearance of life issue it i'm a fish there some fishermen who use it to their advantage they will close the sargassum to catch the i'm'm a fish this call is after smaller species. so our fish lovers so if

there's another fish that surfaces to the clinicians because it increases the sargassum and that fish is economical. the fish is economicalal than barbadians wil close. but definitely they're not going to forget about fly in. chicago national this.
