Bezos Predicts Three-Day Workweek as Amazon Cuts 30,000 Jobs
Original: Bezos Predicts a Three-Day Workweek. Amazon Just Cut 30,000 Jobs.
Jeff Bezos says artificial intelligence could one day allow people to work only three days a week, a prediction landing just as Amazon announced plans to cut roughly 30,000 corporate jobs. The contrast between his optimistic vision of AI-driven leisure and the largest layoffs in the company's history is drawing sharp commentary, with many questioning who actually benefits from automation and whether shorter weeks will ever reach ordinary workers.
Why now: The irony of Bezos promoting a shorter workweek while Amazon carries out mass layoffs has made the story a lightning rod for debate about AI and jobs.
