Will AI Lead to a 3.5-Day Work Week? Jamie Dimon Thinks So

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said AI is already being used by thousands of employees at his bank and is likely to make dramatic improvements in workers' quality of life — even if it eliminates some jobs.

"Your children are going to live to 100 and not have cancer because of technology," Dimon said in an interview on Bloomberg TV Monday. "And literally they'll probably be working three-and-a-half days a week."

Dimon, who has called AI "critical to our company's future success," previously said the technology can be used to help the firm develop new products, drive customer engagement, improve productivity and enhance risk management.

Even with the positives offered by AI, the technology does pose risks, Dimon said. Watch his interview .

I wrote my 9th grade (36 years ago 1987) term paper on the imminent soon to be thrusted upon us 3 days work week. Since then work week hours have increase and compensation has flattened. At the same time technology has replaced countless jobs making worker more efficient. If history repeats, then AI will extinct some jobs. Others will be created. Productivity will increase in the aggregate. Early adaptors will see salary gains. Everyone else will be reshuffled and repurposed. Some at higher compensation most at the same level or lower. When AI is finally mainstreamed my best guess is on continued trends of in aggregate work week hours increases and flat to lower compensation.

I have seen what AI can do and I would think that ?"literally they'll probably be working three-and-a-half days a week." is correct, as employees themselves will become more productive, because AI eliminates many tasks that would normally take up a lot of their time, including doing tasks that employees don't like doing. AI is probably already helping a mailman. AI can help waiters. AI can help someone who orders casino machines. You just need to look deep into the system/process used within each job, to actually do the job, to see the fit for adding AI.
