Text CB1A7
Whenever a global economic transformation takes place, a single city usually drives it forward. Ghent, in modern-day Belgium, was at the core of the burgeoning global wool trade in the 13th century. The first initial public offering took place in Amsterdam in 1602. London was the financial centre of the first wave of globalisation during the 19th century. Today the city is San Francisco.
California’s commercial capital has no serious rival in generative artificial intelligence (AI), a breakthrough technology that has caused a bull market in American stocks and which, many economists hope, will power a global productivity surge. Almost all big AI start-up companies are based in the Bay Area, which comprises the city of San Francisco and Silicon Valley (largely based in Santa Clara county, to the south). OpenAI is there, of course; so are Anthropic, Databricks and Scale AI. Tech giants, including Meta and Microsoft, are also spending big on AI in San Francisco. According to Brookings Metro, a think tank, last year San Francisco accounted for close to a tenth of generative AI job postings in America, more than any other city of the country. New York, with four times as many residents, was second.

“Os conectivos (connectives, ou linking words), também conhecidos como palavras de transição (conjuctive adverbs / transitional adverbs), servem para estabelecer uma ligação entre conceitos, ideias ou palavras em uma mesma frase ou entre frases distintas. Estes termos são importantes para manter o que chamamos de coesão de um texto, isto é, quando as ideias transmitidas em frases e parágrafos estão interligadas e seguem uma lógica. É justamente por existir coesão em um texto que podemos dizer que ele ficou claro ou fácil de compreender.”
