Reps. David Cicilline and Mark Takano shake hands at a news conference in 2019. Takano has advocated a four-day workweek.
  • Economists and analysts say emerging AI technologies could make some workers more productive.
  • Such a productivity boost could make a four-day workweek more possible.
  • But some analysts think the US's work culture could stand in the way of a four-day workweek.

If the four-day workweek becomes a reality in the US, you might have artificial-intelligence technologies like ChatGPT to thank.
