Orizzonte Scuola summarizes recent remarks by Bill Gates, who predicts that artificial intelligence will radically reshape both the world of work and education by 2035. According to Gates, the increasing efficiency brought by AI will reduce the average work week to two or three days. In parallel, AI will become a standard tool in education, acting as a powerful tutor that enhances student learning.

He foresees AI taking over repetitive tasks, freeing up human time for creative and strategic work. In education, Gates envisions AI playing a central role in personalized instruction and curriculum adaptation. The article highlights the dual opportunity and challenge AI poses: while it may create more leisure and support, it could also exacerbate inequality if not managed with care.

This vision aligns with global debates on the future of work and human-centered AI governance.
