In the logistics sector, AI-powered robots are revolutionizing distribution yards in the supply chain. These critical hubs, often seen as bottlenecks, are being enhanced with robotic solutions that streamline the loading, unloading, and dispatching process. Thanks to advancements in robotics and artificial intelligence, a major upgrade is underway in this vital area of operations.

From robotics to quantum computing, NVIDIA and Google Quantum AI have announced a groundbreaking partnership aimed at accelerating the development of next-generation quantum devices. This collaboration could potentially transform capabilities in the computing realm, making it an exciting space to watch.

In local news, Sam Altman, the co-founder of OpenAI, has joined the transition team for San Francisco's mayor-elect, Lurie. Alongside nine other prominent city leaders, Altman aims to provide strategic guidance on revitalizing the local tech ecosystem, as Lurie prepares to take office in January twenty twenty-five.

Finally, Chinese tech giants are steadily recruiting talent in Silicon Valley to bolster their artificial intelligence projects. Despite the competitive landscape, major firms are targeting employees from leading United States tech companies as they expand their presence in the area.

De allereerste EU in Business op New Business Radio gemist?

In EU in Business staat de Herstel- en Veerkrachtfaciliteit centraal. Dit is een tijdelijk fonds waarmee de Europese Unie subsidies en leningen verleent aan lidstaten. Hiermee financieren de EU-landen hervormingen en investeringen die ze tussen februari 2020 en juni 2026 uitvoeren. De overkoepelende naam voor dit plan is NextGenerationEU. 

Het Nederlandse Herstel- en Veerkrachtplan bestaat uit 21 hervormingen en 28 investeringen. In elke aflevering van EU in Business wordt één van de projecten die hiermee gefinancierd wordt uitgelicht.

Deze aflevering stond in het teken van Quantum Delta NL. Dit Nationaal Groeifondsprogramma maakt van Nederland de Silicon Valley van quantumtechnologie. De Quantum Delta in Delft is een plek waar wetenschappers, ingenieurs en ondernemers samenwerken aan baanbrekende innovaties. 

De quantumrevolutie is een wetenschappelijke, technische en commerciële uitdaging, ongekend in de geschiedenis. Als het succesvol is, kan kwantuminnovatie een positieve, ontwrichtende kracht zijn die leidt tot verbeterde levens, een rijkere, duurzamere economie, een gezondere planeet en een nog dieper begrip van ons universum.

Maar hoe ziet deze revolutie eruit, welke rol kan Nederland hierin spelen en hoe gaat de toekomst eruit zien?

Ron Lemmens sprak tijdens deze eerste aflevering met Freek Janmaat, die binnen de Europese Commissie in Nederland verantwoordelijk is voor de dialoog met Nederland over economische thema's en het herstelplan; en met Jesse Robbers, Director of Industry & Digital Infrastructure bij Quantum Delta Delft.

Silicon Valley has appeared in ˗ˏˋ $𝕙𝟙𝕟𝟙𝕟𝕘+𝕃𝟙𝕘𝕙𝕥$ ˎˊ˗ !!!!!!

American journalist Franklin Foer has been following the work of the Democrats for years. In 2023, he published the book The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future. The author delves into the internal dynamics of the first two years of Biden’s presidency. The book has been recommended to those who want to understand the 46th President of the United States and his actions.

Franklin Foer describes Joe Biden as increasingly isolated from the world. Recently, he has been surrounded only by his family and closest advisors, who blindly believe in his ability to win the elections. This, according to Foer, prevented Biden from stepping down as a presidential candidate in time, leaving the Democrats with little room to select an alternative candidate.  One of Biden’s most controversial moves, which could cast a shadow over his presidency, is the pardon of his son, Hunter Biden.

However, Foer’s interests extend beyond the Democrats. He is also intrigued by Silicon Valley leaders—how they think and the threats posed by technological breakthroughs. Foer argues that Silicon Valley billionaires are now rallying around Trump to fulfill their own ambitions, eliminate competitors, and secure funding for projects like Mars colonization.

Journalist Nataliya Gumenyuk talks with Franklin Foer about how the Democrats are grappling with their defeat, their strategies before handing over power to the Republicans, the current Trump team and the eccentric figures within his circle, the lengths Silicon Valley billionaires are willing to go to, and the parallels between Elon Musk and Rinat Akhmetov.

The first definitive account of one of Ireland’s most controversial business stories 

 Founded in 2009 by the enigmatic Paddy Cosgrave, Web Summit started as a 150-person meet up in Dublin. Within a decade, it grew to a 70,000 gathering of industry leaders. The gravitas of big names and the vibrant atmosphere of the conference would convince leaders of companies big and small that Web Summit was the place to be for experts and more importantly, was worth the price of participating.

But, under the bright lights of its success, Web Summit appeared to unravel. After spending years using social media to target people he disagrees with, and leading Web Summit with what some say was unfettered power for much of this time, in October 2023 Paddy Cosgrave resigned in a storm of controversy following his own online comments. But less than six months later, Paddy has returned as chief executive and embroiled in a series of lawsuits with his co-founders, Web Summit seems to be edging toward some sort of reckoning.

In Drama Drives Interest, journalist Catherine Sanz chronicles the historic rise, fall, and rise again of Paddy Cosgrave and provides the first definitive account of one of Ireland’s most controversial business stories.

(Verse 1)
In the glow of the screen, where the future is bright,
A shadow is cast in the cold factory light.
They whisper of progress, of a world redefined,
But the hands that build it are shackled, confined.

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, the algorithms hum, but the workers don’t sing,
In the mines of the earth, where the cobalt veins sting.
The AI learns fast, but the cost is so slow,
A debt paid in sweat, where the rivers don’t flow.

(Chorus)
Silicon chains, in the land of the free,
Built on the backs of the unseen, the unpaid, the weary.
From the cloud to the code, to the blood in the ground,
The future’s a dream, but the present’s a wound.

(Verse 2)
They say it’s a marvel, this machine with a mind,
But the truth’s in the labor it leaves far behind.
In the factories where children are breaking their bones,
For a world that consumes while it deafens their groans.

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, the data flows free, but the wages don’t rise,
In the sweatshops of progress, where the hope slowly dies.
The AI grows wise, but the workers grow thin,
A cycle of silence, where no one can win.

(Chorus)
Silicon chains, in the land of the free,
Built on the backs of the unseen, the unpaid, the weary.
From the cloud to the code, to the blood in the ground,
The future’s a dream, but the present’s a wound.

(Bridge)
Can you hear the echo, the cry in the wire?
The cost of convenience, the spark in the fire.
We’re trading our souls for a digital crown,
But the weight of the world is still pressing us down.

(Verse 3)
So what is the answer, when the system’s designed,
To keep us divided, to keep us confined?
Will we rise for the workers, will we break through the veil,
Or will we keep building this dystopian tale?

(Outro)
Silicon chains, they may bind us for now,
But the future’s unwritten, the time’s ticking loud.
From the code to the hands, to the hearts that still bleed,
The change starts with us, in the choices we seed.

(Final Chorus)
Silicon chains, in the land of the free,
We’ll break every link, for the unseen, the weary.
From the cloud to the code, to the blood in the ground,
The future’s a dream, and we’ll turn it around.

S&W Episode 991: Vegan Trans Death Cult

Veteran and entrepreneur Chad Grills of National Capital League discusses his experience with Big Tech and how building anything meaningful and lasting will likely not come out of Silicon Valley or places like California. He explains how Silicon Valley was seeded by DOD, the Intelligence Community, and DARPA. The culture of Silicon Valley and most major cities will not allow anything original or good for humanity to emerge. He argues we have neither communism nor capitalism, but a monopolistic system that keeps the little guy out. He stresses a need for better governance, creating good culture, maintaining personal integrity, and is optimistic about the ability of America to reinvent itself.
