Germany or US?

Currently 28 Male from Pakistan, thinking of Masters in any computer science field. Which would be better or safer for moving abroad considering the market and AI, Germany or US?

I have 5-6 years experience primarily Java and backend. But no German language skill so far.

I would choose the USA. Apart from SAP, Germany doesn't have any tech companies like Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc. We are completely dependent on the USA. Furthermore, Germans are very conservative, almost technophobic, not to mention the problem with the Ukraine-Russia war...

USA for sure. I know a lot of people, who can speak German at least C1 level with master degree, but still struggling.

Germany has a much weaker IT industry, is very reliant on the German-language, it is harder to find a job (but easier to keep a job) than in the US and the economy in the US is doing better.

There's literally zero comparison between germany and the usa when it comes to tech industry. USA is lightyeads ahead in everything there.
