AI Headlines:
November 25, 2025: Tech industry threatens to relocate, quantum AI breakthrough at IBM, „reality check“ for social media
Wednesday, November 26, 2025
After the lines between unions and industry hardened over the past 48 hours, the German government is pulling the emergency brake. Technologically, we are witnessing a fascinating fusion of brains and AI, and online, the new mandatory labeling is sparking unexpected protests.
Here are the most important AI news stories of the day:
Politics gets involved: The Chancellor’s Office invites people to a „crisis summit on automation“
The threat from industry to withdraw investments (yesterday) and the demand for a robot tax (the day before yesterday) have reached Berlin. This morning, the Chancellor’s Office unexpectedly convened a „National Summit for Work and Automation,“ scheduled to take place before Christmas.
The goal: The government aims to broker a compromise. A „machine dividend model“ is under discussion, rather than a simple tax. Under this model, companies that heavily automate would contribute to a fund specifically designed to finance retraining and stock ownership for affected employees.
The stock markets reacted with relief to the signal of de-escalation. Tech and industrial stocks, which were under pressure yesterday, stabilized again this afternoon.
Medical sensation: Paralyzed patient controls robot with thoughts alone
A research team from Neuralink and Charité today released a video considered a milestone in medical technology. A paraplegic patient controlled a humanoid robot (an older model from Boston Dynamics) solely through his thoughts. The crucial element was not just the chip implanted in his brain, but a new „intent decoding AI.“
Brain signals are often noisy and imprecise. The AI acts as an interpreter: it guesses the patient’s intention (e.g., „to grab a cup“) from the minimal brain impulses and translates them into precise motor commands for the robot.
The vision: This opens up the perspective of „telepresence“: people with physical limitations could once again interact physically with the world and even work through robot avatars.
„Truth crisis“ on Instagram: Photographers rebel against AI stamps
The mandatory labeling of AI-generated content introduced yesterday on Meta and X is triggering a massive backlash from professional photographers and artists today.
The problem: The algorithms designed to detect AI-generated content are too aggressive. Thousands of real photos, only lightly edited with standard tools (such as Photoshop’s „Remove Tool“ or Lightroom’s noise reduction), were automatically watermarked today with the stigmatizing „AI Generated“ label.
Using the hashtag #RealNotAI, photographers are posting their original raw data to prove they didn’t use any generators. This has sparked a philosophical debate: Where does AI begin? Is a photo still „real“ if AI has corrected the lighting? The platforms have already announced plans to adjust the sensitivity of the detection.
The search for balance
November 26th illustrates how difficult it is to channel new technology in an orderly fashion.
- Politically: The search for a middle ground between progress and social security (Summit).
- Technically: AI as an indispensable tool that translates thoughts into actions (Brain-Computer Interface).
- Culturally: The difficulty of distinguishing between „real“ and „artificial“ in a digitally optimized world (Instagram chaos).

Excel-Tutorial: Duplikate schnell und sicher entfernen
Doppelte Einträge in Excel-Listen? Das verfälscht Ihre Daten. Unser Tutorial zeigt Ihnen an einem praktischen Beispiel, wie Sie mit der Funktion "Duplikate entfernen" Ihre Daten in Sekunden bereinigen – egal ob Sie exakt gleiche Zeilen oder nur Werte in einer Spalte löschen wollen.
Dynamische Bereiche in Excel: BEREICH.VERSCHIEBEN Funktion
Die BEREICH.VERSCHIEBEN (OFFSET) Funktion in Excel erstellt einen flexiblen Bezug. Statt =SUMME(B5:B7) zu fixieren, findet die Funktion den Bereich selbst, z. B. für die "letzten 3 Monate". Ideal für dynamische Diagramme oder Dashboards, die automatisch mitwachsen.
Die INDIREKT-Funktion in Excel meistern
Die INDIREKT Funktion in Excel wandelt Text in einen echten Bezug um. Statt =Januar!E10 manuell zu tippen, nutzen Sie =INDIREKT(A2 & "!E10"), wobei in A2 'Januar' steht. Erstellen Sie so mühelos dynamische Zusammenfassungen für mehrere Tabellenblätter.
Vom Assistenten zum Agenten: Der Copilot von Microsoft
Copilot wird erwachsen: Microsofts KI ist kein Assistent mehr, sondern ein proaktiver Agent. Mit "Vision" sieht er Ihren Windows-Desktop, in M365 analysiert er als "Researcher" Daten und in GitHub korrigiert er Code autonom. Das größte Update bisher.
