Is the 40 hour work week dead? [Elle Griffin]
Description
Is the 40-hour work week dead? Elle Griffin’s research shows that 70% of salaried workers clock less than 40 hours. But here's the twist: as AI and automation make us more efficient, we're not necessarily working less – we're choosing to create more. From remote software engineers to newsletter writers, the future isn't about less work, it's about having the freedom to choose how we spend our time. [Episode 88]
Elle Griffin is the founder of the media cooperative The Elysian.
