Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has predicted that within the next 10 years, AI advancements will enable humans to work just two days a week — as machines take over routine tasks, leaving humans largely "not needed for most things." Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Gates said AI will handle routine intellectual tasks, adding that "intelligence will be free and available everywhere" in the coming decade — citing health advice and education as examples. Gates also said that industries like manufacturing, logistics, and agriculture will eventually become "basically solved problems" through automation. While Gates acknowledged that AI is driving innovation, he also recognized that it may replace many jobs — creating uncertainty that needs to be addressed. Ref: Fossbytes
