Bernie Sanders Advocates for AI Benefits and 4-Day Workweek

Bernie Sanders advocates for a serious discussion on substantially lowering the workweek in response to the increasing productivity brought about by artificial intelligence and robotics. He argues that the benefits of technological advancements should be shared with workers, allowing them to have more paid time off for personal and family activities. Sanders supports the United Auto Workers' demand for a four-day work week, along with better wages, retirement benefits, and job security protections. He criticizes the excessive salaries of car manufacturers' executives and highlights the disparity between their earnings and those of their workers. The strike by the UAW against major carmakers could have implications for the US economy and potentially lead to higher car prices.
