AI is going to take away many jobs and even become a big threat to humans very soon. But it’s not all doom and gloom with the technology as it could actually help millions from working too hard. Zoom is one of the many applications that is moving into the AI era and the platform believes that AI could be the answer for people to work less than 5 days in a week.
Zoom is planning for AI avatars that can replace employees in meetings and allow them to focus on more productive work operations. The company’s CEO Eric Yuan was quoted recently in an interview talking about its upcoming AI tech that could make four-day work week very much a reality.
AI AVATARS FOR YOUR MEETINGS: WILL IT WORK?
So, what does Zoom mean that AI can reduce your workload to four days a week? Yuan pointed out that people often have to attend 4 to 6 meetings in a day which might not be needed all the time. He feels that having AI avatars to do this job will allow people to manage their overall work schedule to four days in a week. He says, Zoom will leverage its existing phone, chat, and messaging tools with AI and ease people’s lifestyle choices with a better balance on offer.
