Four-Day Work Week: Is AI The Key To Our Dreams… Or Our Doom?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a threat to humans and their jobs are at risk due to technological advancements. Well, most experts have been saying this lately, but a new study out this week says AI might not be all doom and gloom as it’s been made out to be.
In fact, it looks like AI could be the answer to helping people work 4 days a week instead of 5, with AI technology like ChatGPT providing assistance in the near future. A new report from a company called Autonomy says that millions in the US and UK could benefit from artificial intelligence and get to work four days a week, meaning a better work-life balance.
AI is meant to simplify work processes, which many argue could have a direct impact on jobs, putting many people out of work if AI is implemented on a large scale. But new research contradicts these concerns, explaining that relying on AI could be a good thing because it allows people to work efficiently 4 days a week and let AI handle tasks for the next 3 days.
The research claims that supporting AI in their work could help over 8 million workers in the UK and over 30 million in the US, which is sure to be a big positive for businesses looking for a better return on their investment.
However, ChatGPT has proven to be a reliable partner for time-consuming tasks that can also be against humans, but it is believed that both AI and humans can coexist in the same company and produce similar results. required from both parties in a cost-effective manner.
OpenAI leads the segment with the AI chatbot that everyone wants to compete with, and that includes tech juggernauts like Google and Meta. Recently, the company was in the news when, within 48 hours, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was fired, hired by Microsoft, and then rehired by OpenAI as its new leader.
