The traditional workweek of five days has become a thing of the past. Across almost all developed countries, the three-day workweek is now the norm thanks to AI and the increased productivity it has brought to the workplace.

Gone are the days of long commutes, endless meetings, and burning the midnight oil. Employees now have more time to pursue their passions, spend time with their families, and take care of their physical and mental health.

This shift towards a shorter workweek has been made possible by AI, which has automated many of the tasks that used to take up valuable time at the office. From scheduling meetings to analyzing data, AI has made it possible for humans to focus on the tasks that require creativity, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence.

Of course, this shift has not come without its challenges. Employers have had to restructure their businesses to accommodate the shorter workweek, and some industries have had to find new ways to generate revenue. But overall, the benefits have been immense for both workers and companies.

With more time to pursue their passions and take care of their well-being, employees are more motivated and engaged in their work. They are also more productive and creative, which has led to increased profits for businesses.

As we move forward into the future, we can expect the same thing to happen in factories, as smart robots take on more physical work. AI will become even more advanced, and the three-day workweek will seem ‘too long’ in developed and progressive economies.

This is the future of work – one where humans work smarter, not harder.
