Arbeitszeit: Dieser Rechner zeigt, wie viel Sie künftig arbeiten müssen
Sollte KI nicht Arbeitszeit ersparen? Erste Studien zeigen, dass teils das Gegenteil der Fall ist. Woran das liegt – und wie viel mehr oder weniger Sie womöglich bald arbeiten.
Many people believe that artificial intelligence (AI) can perform better than humans in numerous tasks, potentially render entire jobs obsolete, create entirely new job opportunities, and even save us time by making us more efficient. However, the reality is quite different for many workers. Wei Jiang, an economist at Emory University in Atlanta, USA, has been puzzled by the apparent contradiction between the promises of AI's productivity gains and the actual experiences of workers.
Jiang, along with researchers from several other universities, studied how AI is changing the daily work routines and, most importantly, the working hours of employees. By analyzing data from the American Time Use Survey (ATUS), the researchers found that in the United States, average working hours are actually increasing rather than decreasing.
The Handelsblatt newspaper, based on these research findings and using data from the German Arbeitszeitstatistik, has created a calculator to predict your own working hours for 2027 based on several criteria.
