Portugal must retrain 1.3 million workers, or around 30% of its employed population, to work with generative artificial intelligence in order to close the productivity gap with the European Union’s average by 2030, a study showed on Monday. Low productivity has long been Portugal’s Achilles’ heel, with productivity gains contributing, on average, just 0.6% to compound annual GDP growth between 2010 and 2022, less than half the EU average of 1.3%.

The wait was worth it, because when we arrived at our table we got to feast on savory cheddar biscuits and consistently good seafood.
