OpenAI chief Sam Altman and Meta executive Andrew Bosworth rejected a four-day workweek driven by artificial intelligence, NDTV reported.

Workers aged 15 to 29 lost a combined 285,000 jobs between June 2022 and June 2026, Yonhap found. Of that total, 268,000, or 94 percent, were in industries identified as highly exposed to artificial intelligence.
