Bernie Sanders says if AI is coming for workers, it should bring a four-day workweek with it

  We could have that now, if we really wanted it enough.

  IF ai really brings that much efficiency gain, we could free everyone from most of the work, and let people learn to people again. Learn free from universities, and care about local and national politics. IF it really works as advertised, we could all learn to socialise with eachother again, have gettogethers where we share meals and our lives. Anything less than that is just unambitious, IF it really is that good.

  But, it isn’t.

  And a lot of ressources are spent trying to keep us all down.

  But I want a better world.

  Do you?

  I dunno, if we have AI and a 4 day work week, we’ll be at like negative efficiency or something /s

  We could’ve done it before AI though

  Okay I guess, but how about we have one regardless of the latest snake oil promises?
