Australians Could Be Working Just Three Days A Week

The idea of a three-day work week sparked a surprisingly fiery debate, with some listeners ready to sign up immediately and others convinced it would be the end of productivity as we know it. We unpacked new reports about AI coming for a stack of jobs, whether working from home has changed people's attitudes to work, and why younger generations seem to have very different priorities from their parents. Along the way, bus drivers, working mums and plenty of opinionated Sydneysiders weighed in on whether less work for the same pay is a dream come true or a complete fantasy. Turns out nobody agrees on much, except that everyone still wants to get paid.
