Cars are the key industry in Germany and similar to the US albeit in a less extreme manner moving towards premium combustion cars has Germany caught in a local optimum which is now shrinking due to external change.

Investing in AI is not going to fix that manufacturing restructuring problem in Germany. Nor will asking an AI to write superficial feel good articles for British readers where manufacturing problems are endemic, the Brexit transition and solving the over dependence on Londons financial ‚industry‘ is far from a solved issue.




Well, arguably it is linked.

A big issue with Germany's car industry is that it is slow to adapt and innovate and so now faces being hit by competition from China. Slow pace of change and adaptation is perhaps something also at play with AI.
