00:04Andrew Bosworth pushed back on employee requests for more paid time off tied to
00:09artificial intelligence productivity gains, according to Business Insider.
00:13During a company Q&A in early July, an employee asked whether AI efficiency gains could bring
00:18back Meta Days, a discontinued program offering extra vacation days.
00:23Bosworth called the request very dumb and told employees to stop asking about Meta Days.
00:28He argued that time saved through AI should be spent building products rather than resting.
00:34His comments echo OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who recently said AI is unlikely to produce a
00:40shorter work week because people tend to find new goals as productivity rises.
00:45Meta did not immediately respond to Benzinga's request for comment.
