AI and 'surveillance' pricing 25:52

25:52

Dynamic or 'surveillance' pricing is a relatively common practice. But what's changed is the sheer volume of our personal data available online, and how good AI has become at connecting the dots. With news that Delta Airlines plans to use AI to set up dynamic pricing for a large share of its flights, Marketplace's Kimberly Adams explores how widespread this practice already is in other industries. But first: social media buzz sent an eclectic mix of stocks, or 'meme stocks,' on a volatile ride this week. We look at why traders are making such risky bets.

We have a trade deal with Japan, right? 20:11

Earlier this week, President Trump announced a “massive” trade deal with Japan. But as Japanese officials clarify some of the terms, it’s not clear how concrete the deal actually is. We’ll explain. Also, some wealthy Democrats who stand to benefit from Trump’s tax cuts are rallying against them. Plus, we’ll play a round of Half Full/Half Empty! Here’s everything we talked about today: "Cracks widen in Japan and US’s interpretation of tariff trade deal" from The Financial Times "Trump’s Tariffs Are Being Picked Up by Corporate America" from The Wall Street Journal "Rich liberals do not want their big Trump tax cut" from The Washington Post "AI has come for the fragrance industry" from Marketplace "Want to pay down the national debt?

What's the point of blanket tariffs? 6:23

20 hours ago6:23

6:23

This week, President Donald Trump said the baseline rate for so-called “reciprocal” tariffs on countries around the world could now land somewhere between 15% and 50%, higher than what was previously floated. But according to Princeton international economics professor Gene Grossman, "it's not clear exactly what the purposes are, and many of them are in contradiction with each other." But first: Since the spring, oil rig count has dipped to near-pandemic lows. What gives?…

The rates the Fed does and doesn't control 6:31

In an awkward visit to the Federal Reserve building, which is under construction, President Donald Trump continued to push for lower interest rates. But even if Trump had a compliant Fed, he wouldn’t necessarily get the lower borrowing costs he wants, because the central bank doesn’t directly control the rates the president is concerned about. We'll learn more. Also, we'll provide an explainer on what tariffs on products versus countries mean for the economy.…

President Trump wants lower interest rates now, but what could that mean for the economy? "Marketplace" host Kai Ryssdal speaks with Neil Irwin at Axios about the implications of Trump's push to cut rates, and why central banks should stay focused on stabilizing the economy, not helping the government manage its debt. Also on the show: One of the pieces passed in the GOP's sweeping budget bill was a measure that would end taxes on tips and overtime. We look at who qualifies and who doesn't.

Defense billions flow into drone tech 4:02

2 days ago4:02

This story was produced by our colleagues at the BBC. High-flying and high-tech, the very latest in drone technology took to the skies over an airfield near the Danish city of Odense. At the International Drone Show, 50 exhibitors showed off their wares. And because more money is flowing into military budgets, the emphasis was on defense. Danish company Quadsat makes drones with satellite reading software. Besides civilian uses, the devices can also identify enemy radar. "Over the years, we have seen an increasing interest from the defense side, no doubt about that, and that's also where we have a lot of work currently being carried out," said Klaus Aude, Quadsat’s chief commercial officer. Leaders of the NATO military alliance have agreed to ramp up defense spending to 5% of their countries' economic output by 2035, following months of pressure from President Donald Trump. Nordic countries have already committed to bigger budgets. Among them, NATO’s newest members Finland and Sweden, as well as long time members Norway and Denmark. As Europe races to re-arm, drones are a sought-after technology. One estimate suggests the global market for defense drones is already worth over $24 billion, and could double by 2032. "The Nordics have always been very strong in drone adoption, drone development," said Kay Wackwitz, chief executive of Drone Industry Insights. "You can definitely see that those countries that have borders with Russia are really stocking up on those technologies. The commercial market is now struggling for its fourth year in a row with declining venture capital,” added Wackwitz. “And on the other side, we see a huge demand on the military end of things, which means a lot of companies are refocusing from the commercial space to the military space." In June, low-cost Ukrainian drones carried out an audacious mission , destroying dozens of prized Russian fighter jets in a conflict that’s reshaped modern warfare. North of Copenhagen in a hangar, Danish firm Nordic Wing makes drones used for battlefield surveillance and combat. Its customers are NATO countries, but they are largely destined for Ukraine, where “there was a huge need and a calling to have these systems helping on the front lines,” said Jonas Münster, CEO of Nordic Wing. “And therefore, the production went into overdrive. Now we have a European Union that is looking into what we've learned in Ukraine and realizing that we don't have a drone capability in Europe." With a 2,000-square-kilometer flying zone, the drone port in Odense has grown into a hub for tech startups. Next year, military personnel will also be training there at a new $110 million army facility. "Some militaries have actually made a shift from saying ‘every soldier is a rifleman,’ to ‘everyone is going to be a drone operator at some level,’” said Major Rasmus Ros, who’s part of Denmark’s Defense Command. “We're going to have drone operators in the whole joint military of Denmark. They can come here, get their basic training, share ideas and technology development, and then go back to their units and further develop that." But not everyone is so positive about this. Outside the trade fair, protestors chanted "drones for peace, not war." New geopolitical realities are reshaping this fast-paced industry. And as this technology advances, ethical and regulatory concerns over the use of AI to pilot drones are also being raised.…

A new trade deal with Japan 25:47

Under the new agreement, American consumers will now face a 15% tax on Japanese imports — a major jump from the 1.5% rate set back in 2019. The White House says making imports more expensive will encourage more domestic production. But these tariffs could have the opposite effect when it comes to getting manufacturing back on American shores. Also on the show: AI infiltrates the perfume industry.
