OpenAI CEO Altman poured cold water: AI can't save your working hours, people will only be busier in the era of super intelligence. According to news on July 27, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman poured cold water on the expectation that "AI will make people work less" when he was a guest on the "Relentless" podcast last Saturday. His judgment is that AI cannot help most humans shorten their working hours. The main reason is that once productivity increases, people themselves will continue to strengthen their sense of competition. Altman noted that tech CEOs have long promised shorter work hours. Compared with history, people do have more leisure now and the quality of life has improved. However, for some reason, society as a whole has never been able to fulfill the promise of "a four-hour work week," and he does not think AI will change this. His logic is that after AI boosts productivity, people will put higher demands on themselves: "We will always want more. We will want to do new things and create new things for each other. This is a competition." He went on to say: "I think we will all become busier after the advent of the superintelligence era. We will still complain about this, but deep down we will be happier." via AI News (author: AI Base)
