According to the founder of Alibaba, Jack Ma, technological advances will allow us to work less: only 3 hours a day for 4 days of the week. But equal pay or not?

Work, Alibaba: "Artificial intelligence will make us work less: 12 hours a week"

With Artificial Intelligence you will be able to work less. To say it is the founder of the multinational Alibaba, Jack Ma, who, during the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai, declared that, thanks to technological progress, in the future 12 hours of work a week will be enough, i.e. 4 hours a day for only three days.

Jack Ma's is a sensational turnaround, if only one remembers that a few months ago he was inundated with criticism because he supported the working model of Chinese high-tech industries which is based on a very hard 12-hour commitment to 6 days a week. Now we change, but with the same salary or not compared to today? It is not clear.

The founder of Alibaba has tried to reconcile the diversity of theses supported in such a short time, warning that working hours could indeed be severely cut in favor of free time, but on condition that the education system is radically reformed to help young people find work . "For the next 10-20 years every human being, every country, every government - said Jack Ma - should focus on how to improve the education system, to ensure that our children can find a job, a job that involves four days to weeks for three hours a day. If we don't change the education system - concluded the billionaire founder of Alibaba - we will all be in trouble". But perhaps he much less than others.
