OpenAI encourages firms to trial four-day weeks to adapt to AI era

OpenAI has released a policy proposal encouraging employers to experiment with four-day work weeks as artificial intelligence becomes more prevalent in workplaces. The company's recommendations, primarily targeting the United States, aim to help society prepare for AI-driven changes that could dramatically reduce task completion times and reshape organizational operations. Additional suggestions include expanding employment opportunities in human-centered fields like healthcare and education, while businesses should enhance worker benefits through increased retirement contributions and healthcare coverage.
