Generation AI

The US and China dominate the field of artificial intelligence - between them they’re responsible for 90% of the world’s AI infrastructure. Where does this leave the rest of the world? We speak to an AI business in Kenya, a country that doesn’t benefit from lots of investment in the sector. We discuss the difficulties of trying to innovate in Argentina. And we explore the divide between regions seeing a lot of investment in the industry compared to those that aren’t, and what this could mean for the future.If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, you can email us at [email protected] and produced by Hannah Mullane(Picture: Computer science professor Nicolas Wolovick, in Argentina, next to a supercomputer.

Entry level jobs are likely to be the most affected by artificial intelligence. AI can already do a lot of tasks typically given to junior staff, and businesses are already looking at their hiring policies as a result. We speak to recruiters, businesses, and graduates about what the job search is like right now, and how the world of work could be shaped by advances in technology in the future.If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, email us at [email protected] and produced by Hannah Mullane(Picture: A team of young people in a modern office discussing their project.

Around the world, entertainment companies are spending hundreds of millions of dollars on shiny new theme park rides and attractions. It's a highly competitive market.They're big money-spinners for the owners and can help boost local economies too. We look at why a medium-sized town in southern England could soon become a magnet for thrill-seeking tourists, and we travel to Sweden, where a theme park with a very local flavour has been celebrating its 100th anniversary.But what happens if you live next door to the planned site of a major new attraction? And do the promises of new jobs and improved infrastructure in an area always come to fruition?If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, you can email us at [email protected] and produced by Elizabeth Hotson(Picture: People hanging upside down on a roller coaster track.

It's the newest generation to enter the workforce, in their late teens and twenties, but many say they already feel burned out.From fears about AI taking their jobs, to lower pay and clashing values with older colleagues, we hear what’s driving Gen Z’s discontent in the workplace, speak to the bosses trying a new approach, and get tips on how to recruit and keep them.Produced by Sam Gruet Presented by Megan Lawton(Image: A young person looking tired and stressed out.

Transport regulators around the world are forcing the automotive industry to fix faults in their cars, even if they are discovered years after the model rolled off the assembly line. It seems the drive to use more complex technology in vehicles is undermining reliability. We find out how tighter global scrutiny by road safety watchdogs is making manufacturers recall cars to repair them, even if the process is expensive for the industry.

As US President Donald Trump tries to lure wealthy foreigners with a $5m Gold Card residency visa, we explore the growing global marketplace of so-called golden passports and visas.Do the super-rich use them as a tax plan, an insurance plan, or something else? And should jet-setters with deep pockets be able to skip the queue?If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, you can email us at [email protected] and produced by Josh Martin(Picture: US President Donald Trump holds the $5 million dollar Gold Card as he speaks to reporters while in flight on board Air Force One, en route to Miami, Florida on the 3rd of April 2025.

The billionaire entrepreneur was sent to England at the age of 13 after getting into trouble in his native India. His family shared a house and his mother worked two jobs - something he said instilled in him the work ethic that led him to found his own hospitality businesses. An interest in air travel led him to London's Heathrow Airport, the 4th largest airport in the world. But it was on the ground, in the hotel industry, that he made his fortune, with the Arora Group.We hear Surinder Arora's story, and his proposals for an alternative way to expand Heathrow's capacity.Produced and presented by Will Bain(Image: Surinder Arora.

You might have seen it online - social media influencers sharing their morning routines before work. Some start as early as 4 or 5 AM, turning those hours into their personal 5-to-9 before the traditional 9-to-5 grind. Michelle Obama, Bob Iger, and Apple CEO Tim Cook all claim to be up between 4 and 5 AM. There’s a “5 AM club”, inspired by the habits of very successful people. But does waking up that early actually make us better at work? And there’s even a whole industry of how to optimise your morning routine with supplements, journals and beauty products. In some cases, ice baths.Against his better judgement, Business Daily's Matt Lines signed himself up to a week of 4 AM starts and met those for whom this is a way of life.

It started with a man and a couch. Today, it’s an industry worth half a trillion dollars. The growing demand for therapy has made it a lucrative sector, with more and more digital mental health tools emerging. We ask if ethics can keep pace with change in the industry, and if the tech is serving those who need it the most?Presented and produced by Laura Heighton-Ginns(Picture: A home-based online therapist in virtual counseling session.

We’re in Myanmar, a country that’s been ravaged by intense fighting for decades. But especially so since a military coup overthrew the elected government in 2021. We’re asking who and what is paying for each side’s war effort, and the military hardware, in what’s becoming an increasingly high-tech war.If you'd like to get in touch with Business Daily, our email address is [email protected] and produced by Ed Butler(Picture: 3D printers are used to make parts of assault rifles produced in a clandestine weapon factory in Myanmar.
