The global race today are made in germany we take a look at where the germans are in robotics currencies and Artificial Intelligence and in physical and. Robots assuming that your days of sales personnel surgeons being offered an entirely new dimension of control in the operating Theatre Technology is on a rapid trajectory and germany is playing its pot is the first report in our new series digital germany with the w. s and matthew on here to. How you bring pie im told that are you looking for a specific product yeah not so fast please speak after the p b. Yeah. Very what are you looking for im looking for a t. V. May i take you to the television department. Please not so fast please after the b b. Yes you please create it this time spectacular. Careful im setting off and follow me. Paul is the new Sales Assistant here and the first robot ive ever met. Oh if youre a bit on the slopes side. Come on. Hes even got the small talk down his job is to make people feel more comfortable with robots. And if you must robotics are set to become a bigger part of our lives i mean if i increasingly people will be using robots there will be a lawnmower robots cleaning robots social robots so paul is perfect for getting people used to them that. Night the putting in. And hes usually pretty good at that. This is where paul was born so to speak he was assembled in this workshop is creators are still refining and theyre confident hell soon be in demand not just as a Sales Assistant but in all sorts of areas. We count for whatever i think robots will provide support when theres a shortage of personnel for example in the cas sector or whether the show. All of twenty five thousand workers the question is actually will we be able to maintain the levels of service we have now this is where robots will play a major role. And of course. If hes going to work in the care sector paul might have to work on his bedside manner. And flexible arms will come in handy too. In fact robots are already used in health care. Davinci is a surgical robot specialized in Prostate Cancer it cant actually operate by itself yet its arms a remotely controlled by a surgeon. These new assistants takes some getting used to but make surgical procedures a lot easier. The robot gives the surgeon a view of the operative feel thats magnified ten fold this allows the surgeon to work more precisely and monitor shows the image from the camera on the robots ahmeds the cima is removed. It looks huge in actual fact its only a few millimeters big. I find myself wondering how i would feel about being operated on by a robot putting my life in its hands basically. Surgeons often work very long hours unlike humans robots dont get tired man and machine in future theyll be working together more know. The director of this private clinic spesh. Prostate cancer tells me that fifty percent of operations are now performed with the help of such cool robots. With lesson of the robots allow us to refine movements if i move my hands by one centimeter the robots are moved by one millimeter theres also a sort of tremor filter zone no more problems with hand tremors there are some drawbacks theres no had dick feedback and you cant actually feel anything you only have a visual so its a very Promising Technology but although there are many areas which have seen increased use of the technology weve never seen humans actually replaced by machines. But they have replaced them here. There are no humans to be seen in amazons new Logistics Center. Its cool very futuristic with robotic transport units gliding around by themselves steered by invisible hands. These are the new amazon robots. The best buys yet its an improvement first because it means theres a lot more Storage Space for the merchandise the shelves are very close together and now we dont need such wide eyes for the workers. And secondly its so much faster because we dont need to factor in the amount of time that it takes to get around like it by does allow this. For the units make their own way around nine hundred amazon robots are in operation the first warehouse robots in use in germany. Over two thousand a planned for here each robot costs tens of thousands of years and human warehouse worker and eleven year is an hour. Around two thousand people were hired for the Logistics Center if it werent for the robots twice as many would have been hired. Is the fear that humans will one day be replaced by robots justified. It comes to the game as moment out of course i understand the fear is to some extent with money or looks as though well lose out but the fact is we wont be losing out at all and like to achieve the same level of efficiency i would need a lot more workers but id struggle to find three thousand to three thousand five hundred people in the hamburg area the our climate rate is four percent it will be hard with robots it runs smoothly is the guns im written on. Im not sure i follow the logic. Amazon uses robots because there arent enough people looking for a job i thought the point was to boost efficiency. Either way the amazon warehouses could be a glimpse of the future. Visiting pauls design. One of their Top Priorities is alleviating public fears about robots. The head designer tells me thats why its important always given a personality a friendly one. And im going to hes helpful. Pleasant and helpful intelligent charming or. I wanted him to be a gentleman to have a certain elegance and this is reflected in his appearance. Before hes nice and elegant and he moves like a gentleman. He can give a sort of. No one hears afraid of not even the human Sales Assistants that he might one day put out of a job. Should i find you a Sales Assistant please answer with yes or no. Yeah ok ill call one of my humanoid colleagues. The humanoid calling darius post playing music and i ask him if he can turn it off as he says no told us that so who really is in charge here to mention the humans are still in charge maybe not for much longer but for now were still the boss. Calls definitely got a friendly by night and hes got some great. Moves sort of. Heres a Technological Development that could put banks out of business it could also make all sorts of middlemen redundant in lots of other situations crypto currencies are gaining popularity around the globe and so is the information storage and transaction system behind them the block chain its not only revolutionizing financial transactions. What is a block chain. Edward is a composer. A producer sells his c. D. s and a Performance Rights organization protects his copyrights collecting a fee for him every time his music is played or broadcast publicly until now edward has paid for these services. But the Administrative Functions could soon be handled by a decentralized Computer Network it would operate like this edward would put his work online in a codify and file a block millions of linked computers would receive and store identical copies other musicians could also post their code if id work online together and words musical data would form a long chain of coded locks a block chain every computer contains exactly the same chain of data if a further copy is made its instantly apparent and of hackers try to manipulate edwards block it too would differ from the link copies the network would sound a warning and so prevent any fraudulent activity that means edward would be able to sell or swap his music without needing a record label to protect his interests. Every transaction would be recorded securely in the block chain its fast and costs almost nothing. The losers are the middle men that once also earn money from edwards work his producer unemployed the music Rights Organization disbanded its staff out of work because by their nature block chains automatically provide intellectual Property Rights protection block chains would enable edward to do without a range of other Service Providers as well think can be used to validate money transfers or document Real Estate Sales making bankers and notaries superfluities. Computer geeks love them they expect Block Chain Technology to transform the world as dramatically as the internet but there are still systemic limitations edwards computer isnt powerful enough to handle a block change constantly growing data volume has electricity costs would skyrocket and any power failure would put his block chain out of action for the duration. If things continued like that edward would need a new producer if there are any left to be found. Overhead would to ricardo forever vero and i t entrepreneur and founder of a book chain startup is with us today to tell us all about the technology and youve also brought along a cost you of so its tell me what why the cowboy outfit if mobile phones are getting bigger all the time and they didnt fit in my pants decided to find a solution. Though i have my most important work device always available you look like you are set for the job tell me what actually drew you to the job what drew you to this industry. Find this into the station fascinating and i think it can empower a lot of people worldwide and i come from it as well a country that is right now in the middle of a crisis and i think a lot of uneconomical and i says. A lot of problems can be solved through this and really sation and not having people that could be corrupt in power and and taking all those variables out of the system and thats one of the things that the blocking technology promises the changing the way we do business and banking but also changing politics yes absolutely exactly. In technology came into being through bitcoin in two thousand and nine and it was developed not only with the technological purpose at hand but also political and it was developed after the two thousand and eight. Economic crisis so it was a way to find a solution to all those problems and its been working pretty well and so youve come from it as well a to germany where does germany stand technologically there are a lot of critics out there who say germany is way behind. Germany is. Very special because there are some very good infrastructure already in place and a lot of. Regulation for all types of Economic Activities and i think that germany could turn this into its advantage by making regulation that is attractive to blocking startups on the world so its a big opportunity havent seen any germans Walking Around with chips on their head but surely what youve got there because its its quite an unusual thing to do get a chip implanted into your head i dont people whove done it but why did you get it done yeah were experimenting and thinking about solutions where we use those kinds of chips in order to sign block chain transaction or it can transfer actions and its all about the centralization of bringing power into more and moving it to the individual instead of centralized organization so people can sign all the transactions with their hand. At the beginning it was a bit strange but after a couple of months you get really used to it than right now i dont notice it anymore and you actually you can actually put big coins on to that yeah theres a new chip thats going to be on the market soon that is going to allow that to be done securely and right now im using it mostly to open the doors of our office back to you in a vote about that first of the rise of cryptocurrency more and more countries are accepting the Digital Payment method and more and more people using it is why and how. What is a crypto currency. Kitty loves the internet and on it she buys bitcoins even writable money arrow not real money but Crypto Assets which she manages with the help of smartphone apps as do some five million others in germany kitty stores her cryptocurrency in what are called wallets that anonymous and encrypted she can use her Digital Currency to buy pretty much anything online and a growing number of stores accept these currencies with her crypto currency she can book a hotel say in moscow the payment process takes ten minutes in comparison a Standard International Bank Transfer would take up to four days and costs money but correspondent banks Exchange Rates and fees would make a transfer of two hundred fifty euros twenty eight euros more expensive. Whereas crypto currency is transferred wallet to wallet and incurs almost no extra costs theres no bank involved no state no central bank and no privacy concerns. Over Carters Company makes that process even simpler can you actually show us on your tablet how to buy because ive never done it you know one of the things about the sick knowledge is that its technically very complex and we decided to build tools that make it very easy to buy bitcoin so this account is connected to my bank account and i just put in that i want to buy and ten euros worth of bitcoins i place in order and then it gets transferred to the server and the first as has been made so the bitcoins are credit to the wallet. And in this case. We have to buy the bitcoins in an exchange theres other processes for people that trade where its important to buy at the same day and our focus group is mainly people that use bitcoin for other purposes than short time trading. Tell me how you put a value on a bit coin because i mean everyone understands how currencies work and how they fluctuate around the world it is that going to be something that just disappears everyone suddenly using the same crypto currency. The price of bitcoin is. Driven by a supply and demand and cents like i said most of the transactions are done through exchanges theres over one hundred worldwide and almost in every big country there isnt that kind of change. This is what drives the price so in every exchange theres a different price that is driven by the demand of that country and when it comes to putting a price on al services it out companies and what we do will it come down to a bought a system of sorts because if this move this shift to digital currencies. Yeah i think were going to be seeing a future where more and more crits of currencies arise. The tokens that are right now arising through networks based Networks Like the theory im where you half backed tokens so you have a Digital Certificate of for example of potato and then we dont need to exchange the potato physically but we can maybe exchange it completely digitally allowing Global Market to to trade this this object importantly we have to point out its all about handing over the reins from regulatory bodies that have been in place for so long to to whom at the end of the day. Yeah its mostly about empowering the individual so. That be taken advantage of in negative way i mean there is a dockside there are people buy weapons and drugs through the darkness and say yeah like all kinds of technology theres a positive and a negative side and thats why. Technology like boxing which is so powerful. There its very important to be early in the market and early to know all the dangerous to be able to control and offer regulation that doesnt give a lot of space for criminality and i think its going to enable a lot of possible things if the right regulation is in place founder of block ten x. But there are a veteran thank you very much for coming in today thank you well to Machine Learning getting computers to do the thinking for us nothing new but it is gaining you meant to especially in the United States thats where most technology originates germany is trying to catch up the global sick that could soon be worth tens of billions of yours. Software manufacturer s a p is investing in a vast new market marcos noga the head of Machine Learning at the firm wants to get Artificial Intelligence running across all sectors. And we have a vision the Intelligent Company we want business processes which are often very rigid and repetitive and extensive to run themselves rumah cian learning meaning that the eighty percent of a process which involves routine tasks can be carried out entirely by the software her alone. This program evaluates the visibility of sponsors logos during t. V. Broadcasts of sporting events until now thats been a tedious manual task. You can make an analysis here you can see very clearly which logo can be seen at intervals for how long. In s. A. P. s Innovation Center in the german city of potsdam data experts are developing new applications for Machine Learning. Machine learning is about the computer learning from data rather than being specifically programmed that enables us to process fundamentally restructured information such as natural speech a spoken word the written word pictures or videos in completely new ways. In which seemed learning computers analyze data and identify patterns like humans learning from experience the more Data Available the more reliably a program can make its own decisions berlin start ups are already using the technology. In pharma cultivates vegetables and herbs in computer controlled modules on location in supermarkets or restaurants the Data Collected on growth and consumption is aimed at obtaining a Perfect Match between cultivation and demand. But while in farms data volumes are growing only slowly online retailer federate has collected a normas amounts. Outfitter restyle lists put together wardrobes for half a million men from eight countries entirely according to their taste and needs. Machine learning helps the stylists cater to a customers taste more accurately with each order. The software gradually restricts the available selection based on the knowledge of goods previously ordered and returned. Stephen lam is outfitter rees chief data officer he says adopting Intelligent Software has improved sales though it still wouldnt be possible to replace the online retailers one hundred fifty stylists with computers. We want to create the perfect symbiosis between stylist and machine a stylist will always be able to do things better than any algorithm such as recognizing trends and the entire communication process with the customer is something a stylist will always do better than a machine but when it comes to these enormous data volumes the statistics the number crunching machine offers a clear advantage. How to machine hard in clown photo. Thats why companies will soon be using computers for routine tasks rather than people if things were up to s. A. P. s marcus noga Artificial Intelligence will soon be hard at work in every company.
