Axios - AI companies are one-upping the tech trend of 9-9-6 — working from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week. Now, some top AI researchers are putting in (and bragging about) 100-hour workweeks, The Wall Street Journal reports (gift link). They joke about 0-0-2 — midnight to midnight, with a two-hour weekend.
The less-extreme (!) 72-hour workweek was popularized in China and is now a thing with AI companies in Silicon Valley and even some AI startups in New York....
In San Francisco, workers are increasingly coming in on Saturdays, according to data from Ramp, which tracked a jump this year in corporate card transactions ordering takeout on the weekends.
- A startup called Sonatic posted a job requiring on-site work, "7 days a week" earlier this year. It includes free housing and a subscription to Raya, an online dating service.
