The Cavalcade of America, starring John Hodeak. Tonight, the DuPont Company brings you page one, starring John Hodeak on The Cavalcade of America. First, here is Gain Whitman. Good evening.  An ingredient of poultry feeds, Delsterole is a source of the sunshine vitamin D, contributing to healthier flocks and more eggs. And just recently, last March, the DuPont Company announced another price reduction on Delsterole, the seventh since 1939. This latest price reduction is further proof of how DuPont serves agriculture through research in the laboratory and in the manufacture of such essential ingredients as Delsterole, one of DuPont's better things for better living through chemistry. And now, page one, starring John Hodeak as Joseph Pulitzer on The Cavalcade of America. What do you want, lad? I'd like to ask you a question, please. Be quick about it, then. I'm busy. How soon will we be docking? In the morning. Morning? But I must get a show now. That's true. Well, lad, there's only one way to do it, and you'll get wet training. One way? Thank you. Huh? Hey, stop!  Stop that kid! That was 1864. The lad who was so eager to get to America enlisted immediately in the Union Army to fight for the country he had come to as an immigrant 17 years old, eager. For one year, he fought.  Excuse me? Yeah? My name is Joseph Pulitzer. I've been in America a year. I heard that this is where they're hiring men to go to Louisiana. I heard right. What kind of work is there in Louisiana? Plantation work. How would I get there? See that man over there? The one in the Siemens' cap? Yes. For five dollars, he'll take you down on his boat. Oh, five dollars. Five dollars too much for you? Five cents would be too much. Not bad, huh? I have no money, but I want to work. Well, do what I did. Sell your overcoat.  In Louisiana, I won't need it anyway. All right, men. Line up one at a time. Pay your passage money at the disk up front. Five dollars ahead. All aboard for Louisiana the land of opportunity. Make good money on the plantations.  Can you wait for me? Huh? Why, sure. Anything to blight, son. How long would you like me to wait? Until you take care of your family estate and settle your affairs? No. No, just until I run down the street and sell my overcoat to get the five dollars. Well, no, that's different. Until you watch, son, just to show you my heart's in the right place, I'll take your coat and you can hop right aboard. How's that? Here, here it is, and thank you very much. How long do we gotta wait here for the other boat to pick us up? The captain said not more than a couple of hours, Ed. Look, Joe, it's been over that now. There's something fishy about this. But he explained. He told us that he'd take us as far as this levee, then another boat would pick us up. Yeah, I heard him. But where's the other boat? Wait a minute. Here comes somebody now. Everything will be all right. Hi there, man. What's going on here? Where's the boat? Boat? What are you talking about? There was to be a boat to take us the rest of the way to Louisiana. Oh, so that's the game. Well, son, you're barely outside of St. Louis. Yes, we know that, and you're not from the boat? No, no, I'm a reporter from a newspaper in town. Now we got wind of this crowd here, and I nosed out to see what's going on. Oh, well, each of us paid five dollars for passage to Louisiana to get jobs there. The captain of the boat we were on put us ashore here. Just like that, huh? Yes. Well, I hate to bust up your tour, son, but no boat stop here. Something tells me you men were taken in by a slicker. You're sure of that? Of course. This isn't the first time. Then we're just stranded here? I'm afraid so. Are the dirty thieving dogs and each of us a veteran? Dirty crooks. That's what we get for trusting people. That's what we get for risking our necks. Look, I say let's go back into town and look up those crooks and beat them up and hang them. No, no, wait! Wait! Would that do us any good? Yeah, it'd do my soul a lot of good. You're wrong, Ed. Very wrong. What are you so high and mighty about?  You risked your neck in the war for what? It's no good, Joe, and you know it. Oh, please, listen to me. Most of you were born right here in America. I wasn't. It hasn't been more than a year ago that I jumped from a ship to fight for the country that I've come to love. That's a lot of rot. No, it's not. Ed, we were swindled, yes. But we mustn't look at the men who swindled us as being America. There are good and bad in every country. Show me the good in this. I can't do that because there is no good in it. But you said we were veterans. Each of us fought to save the Union. Well, why should we have fought just a short time to go to preserve it and now be willing to become a mob and destroy part of it because one man had wronged us?  If we want to fight against wrong and evil, let's fight with the greatest weapon we have, our own democracy. I'm sorry. That was a speech.  What's your name, son? Joseph Pulitzer. Look, do you think you could put those words on paper? You mean write them? Mm-hmm, from my paper. My boss is Carl Schwartz. Carl Schwartz? General Carl Schwartz? Yeah. He was my old army commander. Well, good. Come on, then. You write that the way you said it, and we'll see what can be done about this business. This is good, but it's still very good. And you'll do something about the swindle, Mr. Schwartz? And more. I'll give you a job right now. Mr. Schwartz, I've got a story on that closed political meeting. You what? You got in there? Yes. Is it funny? You got in where every other reporter on my paper failed. Oh, well, Joe Pulitzer, demon reporter, the boy wonder. Tell us your secret, Joe. Well, I guess that... He's got no secret. And all of you listen to me. From now on, don't kid Pulitzer. Copy him. Young man. Young man. Huh? You. Oh, I beg your pardon, ma'am. I didn't know you were talking to me. Well, I am. Must you eat that apple in the library? Oh, I'm sorry. Was it disturbing you? I've never heard a noisier apple. Joseph! Joseph! Oh, hello, Udo. Joseph, you are my dear friend, yes? I am your dear friend. You are my dear friend. Then I beg you, stop eating apples in the library where I am in charge. Oh, do you want me to take my apples to another one? Please, don't joke. Do you want me to lose my job? Of course not, Udo. I'll stop. Just one more thing. I cannot let you stay in the library anymore after closing hours. But I have so little time to read all these books. In the morning, I have to rush my breakfast. Sometimes even forget my coffee to keep you from freezing to death under steps outside. And at night, I'm late going home because I cannot get you out of here. Udo, a man is allotted only 24 hours a day. That is little enough to read all the books I have to read. That is another thing. Law books. Why should a promising journalist like you read law books? Udo, if I wanted to become a doctor, what would I read? Doctor books, but... But I read law books. Therefore, I want to become a lawyer. You are crazy. With a career such as you have in store in the newspaper business, you want to give it up for law. That's right. It will take such a long time. Waste of time. I don't think so, Udo. You are crazy. You should not do it. You should... Udo. Udo, listen to me a moment. Why? Why should I listen to foolishness? It's not foolish. You see, America has given me the opportunity to become what I want to be. So, I'm going to study law and earn my way by being a journalist until I am a lawyer. Now, where else in the world could I study for one thing while earning my living in another? Only in America, Udo. Only in America. Udo. Udo. Why must you always make these people up? Where can we talk? Talk? Come behind the section on civic government. No one ever uses those books. I thought you were in Washington, Joseph. I'm back. I know. So does everyone else in here. It's wonderful, Udo. Wonderful. She's wonderful. Her name is Kate Davis. She's the most charming. Udo, there aren't enough books in this library to describe her, to do her credit. If you had read something beside law books, you would know. Udo, I'm going to get married. Yes. Good. Now I will be able to close the library once in a while. You don't seem enthusiastic about it. But I am, Joseph. I hope you will be very happy. It would be impossible to be otherwise with her. I'm glad for you. We're going to Europe on our honeymoon. And when we come back, I'm going to become a lawyer. That again, Joseph. I will talk to her. I will tell her to keep you from doing that. You can try, but my mind's made up. But I don't want to talk about that. I want to talk about her, about Kate. Wait till you see her. You fall in love with her too, Udo. Foolishness, foolishness. And I thought when you came back from your honeymoon, you would not remember this lawyer business, Joseph. Udo, more than ever, my mind's made up. Now listen, don't tell Kate. But I've picked out my offices. I want them to be a surprise for her. Joseph Pulitzer, attorney at law. Joseph Pulitzer, fish out of water. It's like Kate says.  You will smother under briefs, appeals. The only way I could be happy in the newspaper business is to have my own paper. And there are too many in St. Louis right now. No, it would mean skimping, saving. I don't want Kate to go through that. I have met her. She would do it, Joseph. I know that. And that's exactly the reason I'm going into law. Kate would do anything if she thought it would help me. And... Yeah? And what? What's that crowd in front of the courthouse? Hmm, I don't know. Carrie. Carrie, drive over to the courthouse. Oh, it is no trouble. The crowd is too orderly. And now, ladies and gentlemen, I have been authorized to put up for sale the press, property, and physical assets of the St. Louis Dispatch. Udo, the dispatch is being auctioned. Just another paper. Oh, Joseph. I hope you can get an opening here. Let's see who bids. What do I hear? What's the opening date? $1,000. That was Mr. Alexander. Who? We'd better go, huh? Let's see who gets it. $2,000. $2,000. $2,000. That was Mr. Grayson. He's no fool, either. Who makes it $3,000? $2,500. Huh? $2,500. What did I do? But you always wanted the two, Joseph. Maybe someone else will bid $3,000. If anyone says three, I'll keep my mouth closed. Mr. Alexander. Mr. Grayson, will you say three? Why doesn't someone say something? All right. Going once. Going twice. Going three times. And so. Go to Mr.... Mr. Pulitzer for $2,500. Udo. Udo, I didn't mean that. Why did I do it? I wanted the lawyer. Yes, you. Sure. So you bought a newspaper. You wanted to be a lawyer so badly that you thought... All right. You win. But what will Kate say? Kate?  Kate will say good. All right. I bought a newspaper. But I bought something else, Udo. I bought responsibility and a duty to the people. Very well. I'll make it the best newspaper I can. You are listening to John Haudiac as Joseph Pulitzer, in page one on the Cavalcade of America, sponsored by the DuPont Company. Maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Having purchased the St. Louis Dispatch at an auction, and merged with The Post, another St. Louis newspaper, Joseph Pulitzer determines to make his paper the finest possible. In his office, he is reading an editorial he has just dictated. And The Post Dispatch will continue its fight against corruption, vice, and all the shameful practices so prevalent. That sound all right, John? A little strong, JP. You see, before the merger, The Post always... This is The Post Dispatch now, John. Yes, but the people you write these editorials about are... Well, they won't take it lying down. The people depend upon the freedom of the press. It's part and parcel of our democracy. When a newspaper fails to do its duty, when it fails to use its freedom, it may as well go out of business. What time is it, John? Almost midnight. Midnight? Kate will be worried. I didn't know it was that late. Where's my hat? Right here. Thanks. And don't set that editorial up yet. I may want to add more to it. Good night. Cab? Cabby? Sorry, sir. This is taken. Oh. Hey there. Yes, are you talking to me? You. Say, you're Joseph Pullitzer, ain't you? Yes. Yes, I am. I thought so. That's him, Mike. Let's go. What? Let go of me. What are you trying to do? Maybe you'll go easy after this, Mr. JP. See how you like it. Let me... Joseph? Oh. Udo. What time is it? Four o'clock. Afternoon? Yeah. Would you tell Mark to get the carriage three days and better enough? A few little bruises and scratches. A few bruises and scratches? It was more than that. The doctor says you were a lucky man. Poppycock, I've got to get back to the paper. The doctor said... All I've got are these headaches. Now go away in a few weeks, maybe days. Joseph, you are leaving for New York next week. New York? But I can't... And from New York, you are leaving for Europe, and you are not coming back until you are better. Udo. Udo, you in here? Yeah, Joseph. Have you checked the passports? You have seen to the tickets? Well, yes. Why do you say it like that? Oh, I ran into Jay Gould, a great financier. But a little out of step as a publisher. You lose for a half hour in New York, and you run right into the newspaper business. You know, Udo, that newspaper of Gould's, the New York world, it's not in bad shape physically, as a paper, it's a little run down.  Joseph, what did you do? I bought the New York world. You bought... But you were supposed to rest, to go to Europe. Not now, later. Your health is fine. But Kate, what will Kate say? I know. Do you think she'll be angry, Udo? Kate angry? No. She will smile and unpack. John! John! You call me JP? Yes, I did. Did you check this story? The world printed it. It's true. Then it's a shame.  Well, JP... A statue of liberty lying in the marshes of France, John. What by the people of France for this country and Congress won't appropriate money for a pedestal? Well, no one can do anything about that. The world can. The world will make Congress see that... Yes? No. Not Congress. John, I'll write to the real strength of America. I don't understand. Look out the window. There's the real strength of America, the people. What about them? What can they do? Listen. The people of France, tradesmen, laborers, children paid $250,000 to have Bartoli make that statue and the people of America will buy the pedestal for it. You've been driving yourself night and day, writing editorials, reading letters from contributors, answering them. It's got to be done. Yeah, yeah. But Kate is worried. Very worried. This will all be over in a little while. Why don't you let someone else do it? Someone else? Wait. Miss Stevens? Miss Stevens? Yes, sir? Bring those letters in, please. Right away, Mr. Porter. You'll see why I can't let someone else do it, Udo. But you're not. Well, Joseph... I'm just tired. The letters, Mr. Pulitzer. Thank you. Don't go, Miss Stevens. Sit down. Now, Udo, pick one of those letters. Anyone. Now, read it. Great. I will turn up the light. No. The light hurts my eyes. Can you read in this like, Miss Stevens? Why, I think so, Mr. Pulitzer. The light hurts your eyes? Joseph, you've got to see a doctor. Never mind that now.  Read that letter. To the world, New York, New York. Inclosed, you were pleased to find 15 cents to help buy the pedestal for the Statue of Liberty. I know 15 cents is not much, but maybe it will help some. Yours truly, Edward Rizick. 15 cents. Udo, it was probably money he could have used for food, anything but this. Yeah, it's wonderful. Take another one, Miss Stevens, anyone. Dear World Newspaper, I'm seven years old. Here's three cents, for which kindly accept my contribution to the pedestal for the Statue from France.  It is. The people, Udo. The people. It's their country, their liberty. Poor Joseph. Wonderful. Statue of Liberty. Congratulations, JP. It's a great thing, a great thing. Thank you. Udo. Yeah? Tell me, what does it look like? What does what look like? The statue. You know, you saw it on there. No. I didn't see anything. You didn't see? I suddenly felt as though there was a deep fog. Then it was dark. Very dark, Udo. I... Oh, Joseph. I will get caged. No. I want to tell her myself. Oh, it's... It's such a tragedy. Tragedy? No. I won't pretend that it's nothing at all, but I thank God I've been allowed to go this far. I didn't have to see that statue, Udo. What it stands for, no man can see, unless he loves liberty. And I saw that. Now, let's go home. Yeah, Joseph? Udo, I want you to promise me something. Oh, of course. Anything. I've had a dream, my friend. And Kate and you must help me see it come to realization. A school for journalism. A school? Yes. Yes, a school. We'll endow it with the necessary funds. Butler of Columbia University is already consented. We'll have traveling scholarships for young students. And Udo will have a special gold medal award for outstanding contributions to the American press. What do you think of that? Oh, it... It's splendid, Joseph. And there'll be other prizes for drama, music, cash prizes. But for the press, to inspire the men who will write the news, there must be that special award. Oh, Udo. There's so much to do. So much to do. And... and... Oh, my friend, Joseph. Yeah, yeah, none of that. Come on, Udo. Let's go. I've got lots of work to do. And Joseph Pulitzer's dream came true. Each year, the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism epitomizes the craftsmanship and brilliance of the American press and the men who write the news. Men who remember Joseph Pulitzer's creed. Our republic and its press will rise or fall together. Only an able, disinterested, public-spirited press with a trained intelligence to know the right and the courage to do it can preserve that public virtue without which popular government is a sham and a mockery. We'll be back in just a moment. But first, here is Gain Whitman speaking for DuPont. To paraphrase an old proverb, all is not grass that's green. The most beautiful green lawn can become a nightmare to its proud owner when it's plagued by those bright green devils of the plant world, weeds. Let us face it, do not love human beings. A dog may be man's best friend, but a weed certainly is not. Weeds are sly, persistent, and stubborn. Now, to be serious, until recently, there has been little you or I or anyone else could do about lawn weeds, except dig the darn things up and then watch them go back again. Today, however, government and other laboratories are conducting research in plant problems like the weed problem. One of these laboratories is that of the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research at Yonkers, New York, where a conference on world food problems will open on May 15th. Our DuPont Experimental Station also engages in plant research, and the DuPont Company manufactures two chemical compounds to kill weeds. One of these, prepared especially for use on lawns, is DuPont Carmex, a 2-4-D weed killer that comes in handy tablet form. It kills broad-leaved weeds without harming most grasses. Just one Carmex tablet, dissolved in 2 quarts of water, makes enough solution to kill the weeds in 100 square feet of average lawn, or less than a nickel. All you do is sprinkle, or better yet, spray the solution on your lawn. Full directions are given with each package. For people who have trouble with poison ivy, poison oak, sumac, and other man-sized weeds, the DuPont Company manufactures amate weed killer. Spray down the leaves.  If you can't get these products at your local dealers, write DuPont for information. Carmex and amate weed killers are two of the DuPont Company's better things for better living through chemistry. Now, here again is John Hodiak. Thank you, John Heaston. Next Sunday, May 18th, has been designated by the president as I am an American day. Joseph Pulitzer was typical of so many immigrants to this country who became fine Americans and citizens. He proved that America affords equal opportunity to everyone, whether native or foreign-born. That's so right, John, and your portrayal proved that America has quite a fine actor in this respect. Thank you. Incidentally, how about tips on movies? You got any? I have. Ever heard of High Barbary? It's an MGM picture, isn't it? It certainly is. Be sure to see it, John, and you won't be disappointed. I will. And here's a tip for you in radio. What is it? Ever know that Abraham Lincoln once played detective? You're kidding. No, I'm not. Listen to Cavalcade next Monday night and find out. And just to whet your listening appetite, Lincoln played sleuth while he was a trial lawyer. You'll hear all about it in Witness by Moonlight, which will be played by Joseph Cotton. Thanks for the tip, John Heaston. And thank you for your fine performance tonight, John Hodeac. The music for tonight's DuPont Cavalcade was composed and conducted by Robert Armbrister. Our Cavalcade story was written by Charles Freeman. Featured in the cast with John Hodeac was Jack Krushen as Uto. This is John Heaston inviting you to listen next week to Joseph Cotton in Witness by Moonlight. And in coming weeks, you'll hear Robert Young, Lee Bowman, Una Merkel, and other famous Hollywood stars on the Cavalcade of America, brought to you by the DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware. Next week's broadcast will originate from Newark, New Jersey. Cavalcade of America came to you from Hollywood. This is NBC, the national broadcasting company.


Hey everyone, we're here at Chrome Dev Summit again, and I'm joined by Sabine and Agie who have just finished their talk on sign-in and credential management. So Sabine, you're largely focused on the best practices of sign-in, I think. How does the credential management API... What's different about it? Why is it a good best practice? So it really helps users to get through these sign-in flows that are full of friction today. People can drop off everywhere. They have to remember how they signed in last time. They have to remember which password they used. They create duplicate accounts. And session expiration is really fast on the web. So people are frequently automatically signed out. And that's really a pain, basically, especially on mobile devices when you have to type your credentials. So the credential management API helps here because it can automatically sign the user in right on the home page, basically on any page the user lands on, without needing any user interaction. So Agie, you covered a ton of code during the presentation. I tried to pay attention, but I also missed a lot of it. So how does the credential management API differ from the usual OAuth flow that I'm probably used to? Yeah, so if I would say credential management API is also going to OAuth, so you can use them together. For example, if you are trying to log into a website using the third-party identity such as Google or Facebook or Microsoft, etc., you can use a protocol like OpenID Connect or OAuth, which allows the user to use those accounts or third-party identity to sign in. So the credential management API can remember those accounts for the user. So some websites have multiple of those, right? If they have like Google, Facebook, Twitter, GitHub, and so on as an option, people forget which one they have used to sign in with. So credential management API helps users to remember which one, which third-party identity they have used to sign in with. Awesome. So be sure to check out the talk. It's going to be on our YouTube channel, which you can subscribe below. Otherwise, follow with hashtag Chrome Dev Summit, and thank you for watching. Bye.

However, the political reality of a place like Europe, North America and other places does not really enable the political paradigm to put into action short term implementations of real hard projects that get the job done with some exceptions. As you very well know because I think you just came back from Germany or were looking at that.

P Chevyddo sianedwyr, roedd mae yma ymddai'r maen nhw. the metrics you're seeing in the region. A diolch yn ymwneud. Microfone, please. Thank you Nick, and David for setting the scene. I'd like to zoom on the Middle East. If you look here in the Arab world, we have the youngest population in terms of demography. We have 50% of our people are less than 30 years old. So you can see why we are having some unemployment, especially with the youth. Next slide. As you can see, we have very high unemployment already. However, when you look at the youth unemployment, it is much higher. It's 25% of all the youth that are ready for employment are unemployed. And that really is a result of the youth population and many other things that we will talk about. The next one talks about some of the symptoms of why this is happening. Again, in the Arab world and in the Middle East, we have 31% of the people believe that they would like to work for themselves. I mean, this is much higher than Western Europe, much higher than the CEE. And that is really some of the symptoms that are causing some of the issues with unemployment. Obviously, there are many other things. And I have to give you a few things that I call the over 50%. When we looked at the statistics for the Middle East, there are a few things that are over 50%. One of them was that senior management, and this is based on a survey that was done for employees, more than 50% of the people believe that senior management does not easily relate to young employees. 50% of the people don't think that employers are doing enough to really help diversity. And when you think that only 20% of female youth are employed in our region, compared to 42% globally, this is a real problem that needs discussion and needs solution. Again, another 50%, more than 50% of the employed in the Middle East are looking for other jobs. I mean, this is a fascinating and dangerous statistics and information. The lack of skilled national labour force. Again, we face that in most of the GCC countries within the Middle East. I mean, these statistics tell us that there is an issue. There are problems with this thing and I hope we can have discussions at the tables on how do we deal with some of these issues. I mentioned them because they are different than the rest of the world. When we talk about all these 50%, the rest of the world is around 2025, so we are different, we have different symptoms for employment of the youth in the Arab world. Thank you. Thank you for that. And you will be discussing in a moment, but let's underscore the generational element of this. There has been an essay competition, and we have the three winners here. What I would like to introduce you to is their ideas for how to change the mindset. Let's go to Mae Habib first of all, if we can, Mae. I have asked them literally in a minute, I know it is pretty brutal, to summarise what they have said, particularly on the way the mindset can be changed and the paradigm can be changed about how you create work, skills and employment. Thanks Nick. Thanks to the ISD and the essay competition for giving us the opportunity to be part of this conversation. I think this 14%, so that was just up there. 14% of Arab youth actually look at a future job being virtual is amazing. It's double the European number and that shocked me actually just now and that's actually what we wrote about. Allowing young people to find very high quality jobs via web-based and freelance employment online. The word freelance is sometimes used as a derogatory term, but really when an employee overseas brings a collaborative mindset, they become just as crucial to a team as if they worked in the same office. We in our essay talked about how we use shared workspaces, always-on connectivity and how you can very specifically use tools to train for a collaborative mindset in virtual teams as a way for young people to create their own jobs. Certainly in the Arab world we all saw the 31% of people who would like to work for themselves and so those two things together I think can help the region fix this problem. But critical, Mae, to what you identify in your summary of what you've done is the virtual nature of it. The idea is to connect talent wherever it is to opportunities wherever it is. 24-7. Right, thank you for that heads up on your work for Crotoba, founder and chief executive from the UAE. Now let's move on to Vajadar Prabodesi for a minute summary of what you have done as a managing trustee of Lead Cap India. Oh, you're here. You're on a different table. Okay, here we are. I believe that the problem of unemployment is as complex as a problem of poverty. It has different issues and very complex issues in itself. Multiple issues like lack of proper education or an outdated education system, lack of skill development, maybe corruption involved in it. So these are the very complex issues that are involved in unemployment and I believe that addressing one may not really solve the problem of unemployment. We have to address this in one go but there is a lack of problem in terms of addressing this all. So I would really concentrate upon two highlights that I have addressed it is in terms of providing a lack of or improving the outdated education system and as well as matching the demand and supply of talent. So these are the two things that it's really the need of our, we should be focusing on that. In terms of addressing the issues of outdated education system, I have addressed this issue in terms of by providing very skilled development programs in cooperation with industry which is needed up by the talent part of it and in terms of matching the demand and supply part of it, we should create platforms which allows industry to interact with you more often. Thank you and Ravi Subramanian, who is Siemens graduate program member, again one of the winners with this idea and what you're doing at the moment. Hi, so let me give you a statistic. 90% of the workforce in India and sub-saharan Africa is in the informal sector without any employment benefits. They don't have any contract, they can be hired and fired at will. So we need to create employment opportunities for people in the informal sector and how the global community can do that is by creating a common platform for organisations who are working in the sector to collaborate and pool their resources and knowledge. So that, you know, resources can be more efficiently utilized at a global level. Secondly, we need to create common standards for employability. So, you know, to reduce the asymmetry of information between prospective job seekers and prospective employers. Thirdly, it's important to encourage self-employment. So youth who are being skilled also need to be financed to help start up their own enterprise and these are youth who have no resources, they are non-bankable. So it's important to create a fund which would back these youth and later on these youth can of course go to microfinance enterprises as well once they scale up. Thanks very much. So what I'd like you to do now is consider some of these issues and let me give you an idea of what some of you have already put on the table. In fact, we just heard from Vidyda and you can see number 32. What you've suggested is encouraging computer programming, business development that does not require large start-up costs but needs entrepreneurial support. There's a lot which we're beginning to group in terms of skills and entrepreneurship and motivation. That's the kind of language that's beginning to come through including from Table 2 from Jonathan Holstag, there are quite a few emails from you Jonathan about the way you see things developing. I'm just showing you that we're getting a lot of messages from you and people outside to try and create the cloud of concern and areas of focus. Can I ask you for the next 15 minutes to try and focus on your table what can be taken forward and how and then we'll come back in plenary. So can the discussion leaders please lead the discussion and please keep messages coming through. Don't leave it to the end because time will run out. So could one of the global shapers on the table be sending messages and updating us on the kind of thinking that is on your table so we can begin again to group it. Fifty minutes please. Sorry to keep the pressure on you but four minutes please, four minutes. And can you file any ideas digitally as well. One minute please, one minute. If there's anything more you could just put in a one liner digitally that would be helpful. Okay could I encourage you to just cease your discussions. I'm sorry to keep the pressure on you. But what I want to do is try over the next 30 minutes to make sure that we're identifying where the trends are beginning to come from within this room and what we're already seeing is about the confidence of taking risk, that being an issue. The issue of culture, the issue of motivation and also many concerns out there but there are some particular points which I'd just like to highlight for you and number 47 on the tweets. Creating jobs does not mean adding jobs to the already existing. It means creating new fields and equipping youth to fill them. Moving on to 57. I'm sorry I don't know who's in the room and who's not in the room because of the handles or if you can identify yourself as in the room it would be helpful. But I want to just come back to May and if we could get the microphone across. 57, creating virtual offices at home through cloud which helps create jobs in rural areas and increasing opportunities for women and I'd like to open this out for further discussion because that's built on by number 39. Interesting that Arab youth predominantly want to be self-employed and 14% want a virtual job. To me this is a sign of distrust in presumably the current landscape of job creation. Mae, how does that correspond to what you've identified in your company and perhaps others could come in here? 57 was written by Khaled, another global shaper who is in Saudi and I don't think he's in the room but created a platform to create to help Saudi women at home find freelance jobs and it's a great platform. We set out to find the best writers, editors, translators, designers for the content creation that we do and we didn't say that they needed to be women, we didn't say that they needed to be young people but the overwhelming number are young women actually and I think it's a function of highly educated Arab women middle class, lower middle class not necessarily being able to work outside the home not just for cultural reasons, logistics is an issue as well that's something that I've identified in Jordan just getting to your job and so I think the tweets that you saw really point to the fact that virtual employment especially for educated women is something that is badly needed and I don't know of too many platforms that are right now creating those types of jobs. Interesting that Arab youth predominantly want to be self-employed. David, is that the kind of metric that you're seeing? In our work that we do jointly across the whole of the region we're finding people want any job they can find right now but this issue I think is one of the most powerful things in the Middle East and Africa it's the propensity of young people to be interested in and want virtual work and that's going to be hugely impacted by access to technology and access to capital so those are two key issues for expanding out virtual employment throughout the Arab world and Africa. Would anyone like to come in on that? Let's build the discussion please. Microphone here and who else over on table nine please? Table nine. Let's just concentrate just here on table six behind you here. No, table nine and table six. My name is Karim Sabarq from Boozan Company. Go back to the observation and your question about the youth. And virtual unemployment or virtual employment? Unemployment in general. There are single biggest priorities to find employment. When you ask them what is important in your life and we've run that survey across the Gulf cooperation countries finding a job is priority number one. They end up being self-employed out of necessity not out of aspiration and there is a big difference between that because that is today telling us what is driving their motivation. Now we would like them to be self-employed you know as a general guideline but they're not there yet because they're our community, our society is not willing to tolerate the risk that comes with self-employment and with the potential failure. So I think there is a paradigm shift that we need to entertain here. Exactly on self-employment I would say that the key challenge is to get people off the lines for public service employment and into doing their own businesses. And the key challenge here is how do you embed that in among the student body at universities? Today one out of every three people in Jordan is either in school or in university and they will be out there at the end of the day in a few years and no jobs in the public sector that's for sure. This is where internships or bringing business to the university becomes the essential thing because we cannot talk about reforming universities if you really don't bring businesses to the universities. Internships, entrepreneurship programmes, bringing big business to work with faculties at universities is key and essential here. Let me just ask you to keep focusing and David says this is a very important point of forward you might want to come in as well. The issue of how you create virtual employment, virtual skills, whether that's critical or not I put it up for discussion, I'm not giving you an idea of the way you should decide. Who's got the microphone next? Hello my name is Saad Khan. Real quick, I think I have two examples of companies that I'm involved with that are actually doing this. So one is a company, it's actually a non-profit called Samasource who connects US based jobs and work at Facebook and LinkedIn and Yahoo and Google etc. with youth and folks who are actually fulfilling it all over the world from Northern Pakistan which is where I'm from in Africa in the Middle East. It's actually a really interesting model, kind of leverages the mechanical Turk side of it. The other is a company called LiveOps which again operates only in the US but it's an interesting one to look at. It's a distributed workforce, it's actually a distributed call centre. So every time a call comes in it actually gets routed to usually a mom who's sitting in Iowa or in Wisconsin who then is the perfect person to actually do the sales job for that particular type. So it could be a pizza call, someone delivering a pizza but the person who's actually taking it is not in the pizza store itself. They just happen to be really good at upselling pizza toppings where it's all the margin in the businesses. So it's actually a really interesting way to think about this and it works very well. This is north of a $100 million business and it actually employs over 30,000 people in just one distributed model. Who's got the microphone next please? I think the 14% on virtual jobs in North Africa, the Middle East is probably not feasible in my view in the short term. But I think using the virtual media for other things, vocational training and indeed training and education virtually has a huge potential which is not at all being explored. One of the issues we have in the Manner region right now and it's been building up over the past 20 years is the quality of education which has been plummeting and that is something that can be addressed virtually. But we have to see where this economy is on the value added chain in order to propose that 14% of jobs in the near future would be able to come virtually, you would have to establish where they are on the value added chain and on average I believe North Africa certainly is not there. Right, Cornelia? This applies to both virtual and non-virtual jobs. I think one of the problems we have in the region is that everybody wants to go to university and not for every job do you need to go to university. It's actually economically quite expensive and we need to create a change in attitude so people do apprenticeships, people can get skilled up for jobs that they really need to do. That goes for virtual jobs, it goes for real jobs but it also comes with an attitudinal change not so that you can't find a wife if you happen to be a plumber because we also need plumbers. The other one is we want entrepreneurs and that goes again for virtual and non-virtual jobs. We need enabling frameworks, we need the right laws, it needs to be easier to create a company. We need bankruptcy laws in the region so you can also fail and another thing we need are centres where you can help, be it virtual, they could be virtual actually, there are centres where you can help young entrepreneurs with accounting issues, with legal issues and that would be a great thing to do virtually. Mohamed Elisaf is from the American University in Cairo. The 14% I see it as a sign of the problem rather than an objective by itself and the problem be it the complete collapse of the social contract either with the public institutions being able to provide jobs or with the private institutions that are seeing more as predatory and part of the problem rather than the solution and monopolistic. In a study that I conducted in Jordan 66% of the youth said they are more likely to trust the person over an institution be it private or public, 8% and 5% respectively and of these 66% that are more likely to trust people only 22% of them said people are trustworthy. There is a complete collapse of a trust culture in the Arab world taking place now as seen by the recent events. So to me I see it as a manifestation of the problem that exists rather than an objective by itself. David Ignatius from the Washington Post. In periods of high public unemployment rising unemployment among youth historically there's been pressure especially in this part of the world for government sector job programs and so it's been the case in so many countries Egypt go through the list that these pressures have created massive public bureaucracies and jobs that take a generation to unwind because they weren't well created in the first place. It would be so much better in this jobs crisis to think about creating access to capital to think about creating ways that smart people with good ideas can create companies, can create wealth and just embarking on a different trajectory from the one that we remember in the state sector, state organized solution to job problems. David before you give up the microphone you've tweeted business needs more confidence but for confidence business needs to see job growth. Well you know I had another part of that tweet that was over 140 characters which was plus a change plus a canes. There is a basic, you know in the United States today in this part of the world there is a business confidence animal spirits problem and winter business is going to get more confident and create the pathways to job creation for young people well they'll get more confident when they see that the economy is growing and has greater demand and well how are you going to get the job growth if they're not investing. There is a problem well known to economists I think the answer is basically the same in light and government policies I just would underline that in light and government policy in this case seems to me to push towards creating access to capital not state bureaucratic jobs. Thank you. I'm Robert Lawrence from Harvard University I just want us to think a little more about virtual jobs because I think what people want isn't just a job a lot of people particularly the youth want a career rather than a job and if you start to think about a career a career actually often involves you learning from others interacting with others working as part of a team as opposed to simply having a job so I'd just like to put this on the table I think for some people virtual jobs are terrific giving them the opportunities to work from home have more flex time and so on but I think for a lot of our youth the real challenge is giving them careers Let me just pick up on that because I have read Mae's paper and Mae can I come back to you please because what you're saying is that people are making a career out of having a virtual skill even though perhaps they didn't two or three years ago think that would even offer a hope of that can I just check with you I mean you need to read the paper I have to say I'm just summarizing it probably rather inadequately but you're saying that there's an enormous explosion of potential in this virtual environment it does become a career I'm glad you brought that up because there's kind of a side Twitter conversation going on about how you help young people find their passion because that's the first step because once they have a passion then they build a career then they find their job but it starts with helping them figure out what they want to do But just to pick up that point can you make a career out of virtual employment? It's about online and offline it's about learning how to learn in a virtual environment We have developers in Egypt, Lebanon and Syria and we've skyped four or five times just in the last 12 hours so it's not about having to be in the same place and I actually think we're more efficient not being in the same place Just let me get a reality check here if I may David and Fwyd, is this on the agenda of the Global Agenda Council or not? Is this a good avenue to pursue over the next 15 minutes? Yes and yes Thank you Fwyd, do you want to add something here? A microphone please for Fwyd on virtual Yes, I mean for sure especially in the Arab world where in certain countries women have difficulty working or finding jobs virtual jobs become the only solution and that's I think why youth female were the most participants in this I'd like to go back to the first recommendation of the B20 which said build infrastructure and that is extremely important because yesterday we had a session on infrastructure and basically one of the recommendation was build infrastructure but make sure that that infrastructure does use local content and does use local labour and create jobs in the countries where it is being done Thank you All right but can I still push this virtual frenzied? Thank you I'm Florence Eid from Arabian Monitor I think some brilliant ideas have been brought up and I completely agree Nick that virtual employment is an opportunity in our Arab world today in particular in the part of the Arab world where women aren't completely free to go out and work in public spaces and I'd like to speak about our region for a moment some of the issues we're discussing this morning are ones we have been talking about on the economist for, as you said Nick about 12 years now since the first Arab world report came out that signaled that there was an unemployment time bomb that was ticking I disagree with you on one point I think the bomb has gone off it's not ticking anymore this bomb has gone off because the bomb has gone off through what we're looking at and calling the Arab Spring there are opportunities today is to try to distinguish between what is logical and important to do and what's being discussed and has been discussed for many years and where the opportunity lies today Governments have been jolted into action and the private sector is willing and young people as we heard from the CEO of Cordoba know exactly what is required and what I would like to see us zero in on here is what's different today and where are the opportunities immediately implementable over the next couple of years as we take advantage of this momentum that's been created for the first time in 12 years Thanks Florence move the microphone forward at the back please have you got a microphone on table nine please table nine table nine alright well you can come first then table nine we'll get the microphone please Karim Salah Gulf capital there was an interesting tweet that the first job is always the hardest job how can we convince employers to take a chance on the young new job seekers essentially and maybe the government has a role there in sense maybe they can provide training subsidies tax subsidies or they can provide the wage subsidies there's an interesting experiment in the UEE where the government is willing to work with employer and split the first year's wages with the employer until the employee gets productive so it's a way to encourage employers to take a chance on new job seekers essentially Thank you let me keep pushing the idea of virtual employment or virtual retention or virtual occupation on table nine do you have the microphone now yeah I actually have a point on access to capital to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem which is creating jobs you absolutely need capital and one of the issues in this region in many of the countries around the world is that the capitalists is in small groups of families and hasn't been what I call democratised to a broader set of people who need to do the investments because this has been the way business have been created historically so we need to train people how to do angel network venture capital we need to build the skill sets into that so I think if government and the partner with the private sector can do more to train existing capital holders how to spread that wealth out further to invest in small businesses I think that will be very effective and I'm with the department of state the US government we have programmes to train people how to do angel networks and such to democratising capital and while you've got the microphone the link into virtual work as well can you make that link given that capital is needed in fact one thing we're doing is we've got a mentoring network that's virtual as a platform to link existing entrepreneurs and investors with people with entrepreneurs locally so that they can get that access to capital thank you can you pass the microphone back please thank you my name is Senim Eddi work for SAP software company so virtual is real 14% is only a tip of the iceberg this is going to grow much bigger do you have a metric do you have an idea of the scale that you can see coming of course as I say I have a hammer so everything looks like a nail we're in the software business we create jobs every day and through our ecosystem of partners and there is a multiplier effect every knowledge job that is created can create up to five others in the market but look what's happening here in this forum the tweets are taking over no they're not we're in control you may feel overwhelmed I'm not I'm not at all but look what it's done to stimulate the debate which is important which is fantastic and I embrace this and I think this is the element of change that is needed if only a forum can be created where all the stakeholders can meet we all know who are the stakeholders this has been discussed for the last ten years and we know exactly what the solutions are but the problem is to find the right forum where everybody meets and innovates and what I'm suggesting is is a platform that is technology driven an organically grown platform forum where everybody meets and innovates if the tweets are in control I'm making sure that you're aware of them and you can make that kind of contribution let me go right to the back please no one moment please the lady at the back yeah I'm Zeynep I'm a shaper as well so I'm gonna completely echo what Mae has been saying virtual offices and virtual career absolutely I'll give you two stories I'm working with people living in India and they don't have to come to my office and I'm serving an entire country in Turkey with lots of different clients I was just talking to a headhunter friend of mine this new graduate of a university who's serving 200 different companies as their social media expert now did we have social media experts before? no so virtual offices and virtual careers absolutely and this is moving at extreme velocity so that's gonna happen before we even decide if it's gonna happen are we though on the cutting edge in the reflection of what we're saying this morning are we reflecting that very high velocity which is happening out there or not? reflecting in our discussions adequately are we engaged do we understand this sitting in this room the speed of what is happening out there I don't think so because this comes a lot from the youth as well so the university students and what they want to do virtual careers I think maybe we need to try to understand the youth better and the idea of virtual headhunting is that an important area for somehow pooling skills, capabilities and availability yes, I sit in my office in Istanbul and I send out requests across China, India, Turkey and whoever is giving me the best services I go with them and obviously their career as to what they have been doing so far is very important all right, one of the other things coming through here in the last seven or eight minutes is motivation let's try and morph the two together you have the microphone and we'll get one here as well one last thing on the virtual careers and jobs I would say can you talk about a virtual career or not? yes, definitely and the reason I'm talking that is today technology enabling that to happen if you look at comparison with what's happening in today's world even within organisations remote working and the services industry has proven this remote working is a reality and hundreds and millions of jobs are created where people work out of remote locations and technology is enabling that not only in terms of ID services, even in terms of R&D which is happening with remote connectivity so virtual jobs are real, careers are real and organisations are actually making this work and it is not necessarily when we talk about virtual working it's working from home so that's the point I want to make thank you, please okay, Sapea Kelmanidus with Ernstyn Young last week we had internal meeting and we were trying to understand a little bit more about what motivates our young executives what triggers off them wanting to succeed and there was study done by a group of young executives we think our future partners and what came out of that was that they are totally different as what they expect out of a career meaning that working long hours or being travelling away from their families is something that really triggered them wanting to stay in a profession so that, I think the aspect that was being discussed before understanding what you really want from a career is very important and what they understand is appearing to be different from what our generation actually expected from a career just before I go on to three or four others who want to intervene Jody, can you just give us a reflection are we being bold enough as you sit there we've got about eight or nine minutes to run can you get a microphone, microphone to table ten please well, I think we're being bold enough but I do have a few reality check thoughts on this yes please quickly and on the others virtual clearly addresses a lot addresses mobility, addresses access to work we've heard one reality check about careers I actually don't think we could possibly know enough given how long there's been virtual work about what will happen on careers we have to address that another reality check that we had at our table with virtual is social protection that was related to the informal economy but we have to worry about this interestingly it was raised by somebody from health age these youth one day will need pensions they will retire so thinking about that third reality check we heard a mention of education on these virtual jobs they need basic skills we've got so many schools where teachers don't show up where teachers show up maybe two out of three days where there are 100 to the classroom where there are no books those are not going to be the people going online so that's a piece last thought are we being radical enough we've worried about one population but we have to worry about the other populations who are not in work women are out of work at this age at much higher rates the disabled broadly speaking any kind of difference out of work 80-90% in some countries and a quick question of course are enough of those who are vulnerable connected in this new virtual environment do they have the bandwidth Jamie McAuliffe I also wanted to put a little bit of a damper on the virtual jobs most of the young people we work with I'm with education for employment don't have access to the internet so they are most concerned with just getting connected to that first job with the right skills and we really have to still make sure that we're focused some of our efforts on that so I love the way you're pushing the virtual jobs as one new direction but let's not forget that there are a vast majority of young people who are just trying to get connected to that first job and we need to help them do that secondly I wanted to come back to your first point Nick we've been working at this for many years as other organizations have been and this is now my third weft where we've talked about new ideas new policies and there are actually a lot of things that are working on the ground that we haven't figured out a way to scale up and I would mention this as well we need real active measurable projects that can be scaled up and there are people and partners willing to do this we need that we could borrow from the health sector we need you know like the global alliance for improved nutrition trying to affect the lives of a billion people a multi-sectoral multi hundreds of millions of dollars from multilaterals, businesses putting together the money and the resources with shared objectives to affect the lives of millions if not billions of people there is some effort like this for youth employment it's that big a challenge and I'm not seeing any traction for that kind of a global youth employment fund that would be driven I think mostly by the private sector but would need to be established soon to address this problem but let me put to you you say maybe a lot of people are not connected at the moment but should it be a planning ambition given the speed at which we've had underlined right from table 10 there about the speed of change this enormous velocity that actually has to be on the planning matrix because it's going to happen sooner than most people expect even in the countries which currently are not well connected I think we've got to move from the reports to a very concrete mechanism that's global in nature and is really a platform for partners multilaterals, businesses and non-profit implementing partners like us to really address this problem at scale the great thing is a lot of the discussion is reflecting the notes that are coming through and I'm not going to go through the tweets because you're all saying it in person here keep going okay, Shefnam Kallimniolskan Coach University and Harvard University I would like to provide two links one on access to capital and virtual jobs and motivation and virtual jobs on access to capital and virtual jobs so I work on a project founded by Bill Gates and Melinda Gates Foundation about misallocation of capital in Africa and our task is to interview firms young firms, older firms multinational firms, local firms and try to understand why they are not hiring young people and one topic came across is this whole virtual arena and there what is important is they cannot get financing to start the business it is very small money that we are talking about and they can organize but they just can't go and get financing from the banks because they don't have collateral so here I think the link between the access to finance access to capital and virtual jobs is also important, it's government and institutions because if the proper rights and institutions are not defined they won't be able to access it can I go to table 11 please Roy Jacobs, you've just made a rather important comment here about introducing a Facebook driven internship program in your experience particularly when it comes to the virtual environment tell us what you do and just summarize very quickly please in our search for good interns what do you do please so we posted on Facebook what do you do? I'm from Philips, CEO Philips in Middle East Turkey and in our search for interns so we changed our strategy to move to a digital approach in combination which is still going on to universities but most important is the dialogue actually that triggers whilst we are ongoing so we have now 20 interns through the new program but most of the best learnings that we get is also the ongoing dialogue online on Facebook with the new generation about potential issues that they have return on or feedback on our brand but also what we can do to engage them in our work and quickly what conclusion are you with drawing from this change to the landscape? that actually this is the way for us moving forward so it has been a very successful proven we are going to expand it also going more digital in other recruitment areas so I think it's kind of adding to the virtual dialogue that this is a new way in where you go where in my view the most important is where the community is where they have their dialogues and then when you engage with them you can get them on board All right, we have five minutes to run sadly but I knew this was going to be a problem we just take getting to lift off stage here Fuad, your reflections on this discussion David as well please Thanks Nick, I think the I would like to link the recommendations of the B20 again back to infrastructure that governments should not only focus on hard and economic infrastructure should also focus on the soft infrastructure you know the infrastructure that's consistent with the discussion here I mean if we are going to push virtual jobs and virtual communication we need to have the infrastructure that allows this to happen in a very rapid and efficient matter too Thank you, David I put the five points from the B20 Task Force up behind you there's nothing about virtual there have we just focused on one issue which became quite sort of fashionable in the last 40 minutes or is it actually something rather important? I think the conversation here today has been the most pragmatic I've heard at any of these sessions for 10 years the practical examples that have come out of today should be taken forward this is the basis of a world of work marshal plan we need this fleshing out the detail putting in as Jamie says the real examples from on the ground built in, proliferated and sent out there virtually so that we develop the virtual world of work for young people and the practical and physical world of work for young people this needs fleshing out these ideas need to be pumped in to the B20 process today is it about politicians or is it about enterprises is it top down or bottom up? in the absence of speed of implementation from the political environment let's just get on with the job that doesn't quite answer the question though is this for politicians or is it for others? this is for politicians, for top business leaders and for people that are shaping the agenda of the economic world we need to get it to everyone I hope this is on the agenda of the plener as well tomorrow Wilmot, you've been sitting patiently I've tried to summarise it obviously with the virtual element but what's your reflection of what you've heard? I think I'll start with the tweet which I think speaks to a lot of discussion so far I'm from Said and it is future of work will be a portfolio of personalized work not full time employment so I think the discussion has focused on virtual jobs versus traditional jobs and what we've said is regardless of the type of job what's important is education and training access to finance and the role of government in stimulating the economy as well as providing incentives for the private sector to actually advance as well as more I think as importantly providing hope for young people again and I think that we've heard from the Essay Contest winners today about their ideas and the whole notion of virtual jobs Nick I think also speaks to the fact that there is a lack of trust in the ability of the private sector and government to actually provide those jobs and so I think an important notion also which was tweeted was it's really important to have the first job and enabling young people to begin working to begin to develop their self-esteem and to feel like they are an integral part of human society and I think is a really great challenge and I'd like to share one example which we sort of alluded to which is working and that is employees taking the responsibility with where you are now to actually seek to employ youth and one initiative of the Global Gender Council at the World Economic Forum was actually called 10 Youth which did just that we challenged a thousand companies to hire 10 youth and so as we move forward Nick it's important to understand that the reality of the situation is that we also exist in an economic context in which economies are struggling and so I think an implied question is how important is the private sector and government willing to make youth employment in light of the other priorities which are stressing economies all over the world at this time. Wilmot thank you very much indeed I'm sorry to have to bring this to a close and what I'd like to reflect to you is I think I can still feel the health on this and that's really summarised by Tweet 105 from May sitting still on table one quote discussion wrapping up too fast radical ideas for Arab world increased web content on skills in Arabic language Mae thanks for that because I think it does underline and it's great to have the global shapers here it does underline how the traditional thinking is maybe should be challenged much more sharply by those who actually are at the heart of the problem but also providing new solutions particularly in this virtual space that we've discussed for the last half hour I apologise it's short but the brevity meant that you were even more focused than you might have been so it's great and next time we will try and make it longer remember what David said it's probably been the most pragmatic session he's been to in the last 10 years so hopefully that spirit can continue in the next two days thanks to you all for coming


Let me say up front that the Army's readiness across its formations is improving and if called upon today I am confident we would prevail in any conflict This is due in part to the increased funding Congress has provided recently for this. I would like to say thank you However, if we were to continue increasing our readiness to desired levels and modernize the force We require predictable adequate sustained and timely funding The Army's mission is to defend the nation the Army's mission to defend the nation has not changed But the strategic environment has we've returned to an era of great power competition that makes the world ever more complex and dangerous While the Army must be ready to deploy fight and win anytime anywhere against any adversary The national defense strategy has identified China and Russia as the principal competitors Against which we must build sufficient capacity and capabilities Both countries are playing a more aggressive role on the world stage and either possess or are building Advanced capabilities that are specifically designed to reverse the tactical overmatch. We have enjoyed for decades The Army has a comprehensive plan however to ensure its long-term dominance Fiscal uncertainty though has done a great deal to erode our readiness and hamper our modernization efforts Late appropriations challenge the army to execute funding well Which is why we are seeking increased flexibility to spend these precious dollars when funding is delayed To address the challenges mentioned above I've identified three focused priorities for the army readiness modernization and reform Readiness is the top priority because only a ready total army regular army guard and reserve can deter conflict Defeat enemies and enable the joint force to win decisively and While the quality training and a spree of our soldiers are what make the US Army the most ready and lethal ground combat force in history This superiority is enabled by the best weapons and equipment we can provide them As such the second priority is modernization or future readiness to ensure overmatch on future battlefields The army is now increasing its investments in modernizing the force We are also laying the groundwork for more more increases in the coming years The army's modernization strategy is focused on one goal Make soldiers and units far more lethal and effective than any adversary can imagine The establishment of the army futures command this summer is the best example of our commitment to the future lethality of the force Army futures command will address the key shortcomings of the current acquisition system Providing unity of command effort and purpose to the modernization process The army has also identified its top six modernization priorities for the coming years Each of these priorities is detailed in our written statement and is the purview of a newly established cross-functional team The purpose of these CFT's is to determine the requirements of needed capabilities To ensure all stakeholders are at the table from day one and to focus army resources on accelerated experimentation prototyping and fielding My third priority is reform freeing up time money and manpower to enhance readiness Accelerate modernization and ensure the efficient use of the resources provided to us by the American people Our reform efforts particularly with the acquisition system are long overdue While futures command is probably the boldest reform. We are pursuing other army reform initiatives Oh much the acquisition authorities dedicated to the services in prior legislation With these authorities, we are reinvigorating the army requirements oversight council Moving major defense acquisition programs back to the service and using other transactional authorities to accelerate fielding in limited situations Although a ready and modernized army is critical to defend the nation We must not overlook what makes us remarkable for this. I've outlined three enduring priorities first taking care of our soldiers civilians and their families second a service wide Recommitment to the army's values, especially treating everyone with dignity and respect and finally strengthening our allies and partners by building stronger ties I Look forward to discussing these with you as time permits with that Let me thank you again for this committee's continued support of the army and specifically the funding increases requested in FY 18 and The FY 19 budgets I look forward to your questions and appreciate the opportunity to discuss these important matters with you today. Thank you


Russia is stockpiling tactical nuclear weapons on European borders. In September the Russians transferred two echelons with more than 26 wagons loaded with tactical nuclear weapons components to Belarus. This is reported by Belarusky-Hajun monitoring group. It is noted that on September the 15th to the 24th, 26 wagons loaded with components of tactical nuclear weapons and personnel arrived in Belarus. The echelons were heading from the Russian railway stations Cheboksary and Potanino and entered the Belarussian station Prudok. The cargo belongs to the class explosive materials and is listed as other ammunition for military purposes and ammunition except for the above. Hajun notes that not far from the Prudok station there is an aviation base for storing missile weapons and ammunition. To conceal transportation the trains went through the Zolchak division point where only two trains per day pass. On September the 15th 16 wagons were sent from the Cheboksary station, arrival on September the 22nd. On September the 18th Russia sent 10 wagons from the Potanino station, arrival on September the 24th. The monitoring group also clarified that the main beneficiary of these transportations is the Belarussian Swiss LLC Transrail BZD. It was revealed that since May 2021 with the help of this company 127 wagons with defence goods have been imported to Belarus.


Item number SCP-445, Object Class, Safe Special Containment Procedures Access to and testing of SCP-445 must be approved by staff with level 2 security clearance or higher, and each request must include a list of tests to be carried out. Any testing must be done with the accompaniment of no less than two guards for the entirety of testing. Any deviation from the pre-approved list of tests will result in immediate termination of testing and a severe reprimand. Addendum As of 6,000 SCP-445 is to be kept permanently separated from all samples of SCP-445 Alpha as described in isolation protocol IP-445-1. The access and testing regulations given above for SCP-445 apply equally to SCP-445 Alpha. Description SCP-445 consists of three stacks of white 11-inch by 17-inch paper. Each individual leaf has the text, Dr. Wondertainment Super Paper stamped on the bottom left corner. All in its natural state, SCP-445 cannot be torn or burned, water has no adverse effect on it, and glue or tape will not stick to SCP-445. Observation of SCP-445 has found that its fibers are much denser than normal paper fibers, at 3,000 kilograms a cubic meter, and a micro-layer of an unidentifiable substance is coated on each individual fiber. When SCP-445 is folded into a representation of an object, SCP-445 takes on the qualities of the object in question. While in its folded state, SCP-445 can only be unfolded into its original state by the person who originally folded it. SCP-445 can also be rolled, and it will stick to itself if slight pressure is applied. Drawing on SCP-445 does not produce any unusual effect, with the exception of any details illustrated for folded or rolled objects. A variant of SCP-445, designated SCP-445-Alpha, was created on 6 f*****g 2000 f*****g via exposure of SCP-445 samples to SCP-73. Physically, SCP-445-Alpha is almost identical to SCP-445, the only difference being a slight reddish tint to SCP-445-Alpha. However, SCP-445-Alpha behaves differently to SCP-445 when folded. Addendum 10-15 Dr. R. Testing Log Folded into a paper tube When observed through one of the open ends, SCP-445 acted as a handheld telescope, enhancing the view of objects within a 25-foot distance. Folded into a Christmas tree Remained stable when stood upright. When green and red lights were drawn onto the tree, they lit up, despite the lack of a physical light source. Folded into a small knife Became very sturdy and sharp, giving several researchers paper cuts when attempting to hold it, able to hold its own against actual metal weaponry. Folded into a conical paper tube Acted as a megaphone, though amplified only the folder's voice. When a volume control was drawn onto the side, the folder was able to change the volume of the megaphone. Folded into a paper cup Became very rigid, able to hold extremely hot or volatile liquids without any sign of tearing or melting. Folded into a paper crane Became animate, much like SCP-368, though much slower and easily catchable, recommended research into a possible connection between the two. Folded into a paper boat slash hat When placed in water, became self-propelling at speeds of up to 60 kilometers an hour. When inverted and placed on head, subject's physical attractiveness was greatly increased in the eyes of viewers. When both were performed simultaneously, both effects were achieved, with subject reported as looking dead sexy, while scooting around the water upside down. Folded into a crumpled wad of paper Data expunged, leaving 3D class personnel dead. Testing session ended. Folded into origami copy of SCP-682 Folded halfway through folding process, causing Dr. G considerable injury. Testing session ended. Notes. Let's not try that again. Dr. G. Addendum 6-2000 Dr. S has requested permission to test samples of SCP-445, in conjunction with SCP-85. He has also requested permission to expose samples of SCP-445 to SCP-73, to determine whether SCP-73's ability to destroy ordinary paper by touch extends to SCP-445. Document 445-1 6-2000 Approval for testing SCP-445 in conjunction with SCP-73 granted. SCP-73 is placed in a room with one sheet of SCP-445, and instructed to touch the paper. SCP-445 sample exhibits no loss of structural integrity upon contact with SCP-73. However, the sample does change color, exhibiting a slightly reddish tinge within approximately 30 seconds of initial contact with SCP-73. Modified SCP-445 sample designated SCP-445-Alpha Dr. S recommends further investigation into physical and chemical composition of SCP-445. SCP-445-Alpha stored in separate isolation chamber to prevent potential cross-contamination. 6-2000 One sheet of SCP-445 introduced to SCP-445-Alpha SCP-445 sample begins exhibiting visible coloration consistent with SCP-445-Alpha within 90 seconds of initial contact. After approximately 600 seconds of contact, introduced sample of SCP-445 is physically indistinguishable from SCP-445-Alpha. Formal isolation protocol IP-445-1 established to prevent cross-contamination between SCP-445 and SCP-445-Alpha. 7-2000 Eight sheets of SCP-445 introduced to SCP-445-Alpha. Conversion occurs as before, bringing total number of SCP-445-Alpha sheets to 10. Dr. S begins testing on SCP-445-Alpha following the experimental protocol utilized on 10-15 by doctors and G. Folded into A paper tube When observed through one of the open ends, SCP-445-Alpha acted as a handheld telescope, enhancing the view of objects within a 25-foot distance. However, subject using the telescope reported that objects viewed through it seemed somehow off. When asked to elaborate, subject was unable to specify any specific visual issue, noting only that objects viewed through the telescope appeared sinister. Folded into A Christmas tree Remained stable when stood upright. When green and red lights were drawn onto the tree, they lit up, despite the lack of a physical light source. Test results identical to those of SCP-445. Folded into A small knife Became very sturdy and sharp, causing injuries to all subjects who attempted to pick it up, ultimately severing subject D's right index finger at the proximal interphalangeal joint. Eventually, subject using reinforced gloves was able to unfold as SCP-445-Alpha's sample into its original neutral shape. Folded into A conical paper tube Acted as a megaphone, though amplified only the folder's voice. The amplified voice was subject to significant distortion, exhibiting what was described as a demonic growl by observers, though in all cases the speaker's voice was still identifiable. When a volume control was drawn onto the side, the folder was able to change the volume of the megaphone. Folded into A paper cup Became very rigid, able to hold extremely hot or volatile liquids without any sign of tearing or melting. However, samples of water added to the cup became opaque and dark red in color within 15 seconds of contact. A chemical analysis of the resulting fluid revealed it to contain large quantities of human hemoglobin and other blood proteins. No other liquid added to the cup exhibited this change, including water-based solutions and concentrations higher than 50 mm. Folded into A paper crane Became animate, much like SCP-368. Sample displayed aggressive and territorial behavior, repeatedly dive-bombing researchers and attacking with its beak and wings, causing minor injuries. After being caught and killed by crushing the paper crane, sample was able to be unfolded into its original neutral shape. Folded into A paper boat slash hat When placed in water, became self-propelling at speeds of up to 60 km an hour. Again, sample displayed aggressive behavior, repeatedly attempting to ram nearby subjects and even propelling itself out of the water to do so. When inverted and placed on head, subject began to act erratically, threatening researchers and security personnel with violence. Subject terminated In light of these results, Dr. S. elects to suspend for their testing on SCP-445 Alpha. SCP-73 declines to comment when questioned on these findings. Note, in light of these findings, I would like to formally request that SCP-445 be reclassified as a Euclid-class object. Dr. S. Lesson complete.

Welcome to the AI for Good Global Summit. I'm delighted to be joined now by what some people are calling the Godfather of the AI for Good Forum. His name is Neil Sahota. He's the CEO of ACSI Labs, the reason why I said Godfather is because you are actually one of the people who helped create this AI for Good Summit. So we've had seven years basically to look into this, your thoughts? It's interesting, Chris, because if you go back in time seven years, there was a lot of concern. Is AI going to take my job? Is it going to rise up, eradicate humanity, conquer the world? So there was a lot of fear mongering. And a lot of concerns is people would use AI to steal my identity. And that was the challenge we had back then. That was kind of the mindset. And the reason we really wanted to start AI for Good and build this community and showcase the power of the good side was to kind of act all that negativity, the fear mongering, the AI for evil, if you will. And without the right mindset, people aren't going to pursue real solutions for the SDGs. And that's what really triggered us starting this whole thing, and essentially building this community, because if you look at it today, 280 projects going on, a community of almost 30,000 people, somebody had to leave that charge. And that's really why it was important to start and build AI for Good. Because you're a believer that the AI robotics can help us get those SDGs. Absolutely. We need as much help as we need. We had 2030s around the corner. And I know a lot of people look at robots like, they remember the Jetsons. Remember Chris? Like Rosie the maid. They think about those kind of functionality. Nothing wrong with that. But robots have a unique advantage in that they work 24-7. They don't get human viruses or things like that. But they also do things or go places that we can't. So you consider the issue with the bees dying off. We were actually working on a project a few years ago about creating robotic bees to at least try and do similar work that bees do in the ecosystem. To at least try and preserve some of that that way. And that's, I think, the power we can actually tap into. And this really highlights into this whole movement towards hybrid intelligence, that we're trying to augment our own human capabilities with machine abilities. So it's not human versus machine. It's human and machine working together. And that's where robots really fit in as our helpers, our assistants, and the abilities to run into that wildfire and try and take out the flames where we can't go. And yet, like you said, those fears initially that were there at seven years, they haven't gone away. No, they haven't. And I'm not saying we're trying to discount those fears and concerns. But I think that's the challenge that we see. This rise of generative AI, I think it's become very real for people. I hear people all the time asking me, like, why did they just come out of the blue? And it's like, generative AI has been around for almost a decade. It's just that the training, like ChatGPT, has reached a point where these average, kind of mundane tasks for the average person are certainly possible. And that's why we saw the explosion of ChatGPT go from 10,000 users to 100 million users in the span of four weeks. And I think that's treated with a lot of concern now, again, about the job loss and what this means. When you look kind of towards the future, we have to think about AI governance. We have to think about regulation. We need that. We have a lot of people that are working on things they don't fully understand. We're trusting the technologists, and they're smart people. But they're building towards a specific outcome. They're not thinking about the other potential uses, good or bad, that might come from the tool sets they're actually developing. Do you think it's a job killer, or do you just think it's a job-reaching distribution? I don't think it's either. I think it's a job transformation. If you look at what's actually going on, some jobs, no doubt, are going to go away. Some jobs, the nature of the work's going to change, but it's also going to create whole new types of jobs. Talk about generative AI. Suddenly, the most in-demand skill set? Prompt engineering. Yeah. So this was seven years ago you helped create this. How do you see AI impacting society in the future? It's seven years from now for having this conversation. I'm an optimist, Chris. Well, I'll say I definitely believe it'll be for the better, but I think we're going to see more of this actually hybrid intelligence, that we're essentially going to be wired with an AI assistant. So kind of a first cut at research, drafting, resume writing, whatever it might be. This is going to be kind of our sidekick. That's what I think how AI is going to be in our professional lives, as well as our personal lives. And I don't know about you, Chris, but I'm looking forward to that, because then my wife can't complain about me not remembering things like our anniversary. Neil Sahota, CEO of ACSI Labs, based out of California. And we'll have much more on the AI for Good Global Summit right here, so do stay tuned.
