AI Rollout in Germany Pitched as €300 Billion Answer to Worker Shortage

A German push to roll out artificial intelligence is being framed as a potential €300 billion fix for the country’s worker shortage, according to Bloomberg. At a made-to-order homebuilder in northwest Germany, processing more than 250 invoices a week previously took the equivalent of four working days; after introducing AI last year, the task now takes about half as long.
