Bill Gates predicts a changed future for the world of work.
According to him, within ten years, artificial intelligence will have such an impact that most jobs will be completed by robots and AI, making it possible for people to work only two days a week, while the rest will be time for relaxation and other activities.
Gates emphasizes that this could bring about a new period, where society must reconsider how this free time is spent. He suggests that AI could fill gaps in areas such as medicine and education, providing more reliable services and eliminating problems with staff shortages.
This change would bring about a “luxury of abundance”, where robots will take over manual labor, allowing people to focus on more profound activities and discussions about how the benefits of a five-day weekend will be distributed.
