    When Noah asked about the threat of artificial intelligence to jobs, Gates said there could one day be a time when humans “don’t have to work so hard.”

    JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said that the next generation of workers will only have a 3.5-day work week due to AI.

    “Your children will live to 100 and not have cancer because of technology and they’ll probably be working three and a half days a week,” Dimon told Bloomberg in October.
