Human Connection: A System of Action for Modern Work

As Artificial Intelligence reshapes the nature of work, society stands on the brink of a cultural transformation as profound as the industrial revolution. What if the five-day workweek—established a century ago—no longer defines productivity? This session explores how the rise of digital agents and intelligent systems could usher in a shorter workweek, freeing humans to focus on creativity, empathy, and connection.

Zoom CEO Eric Yuan will share a vision for how technology can elevate—not replace—human value. The conversation will examine how AI can take over repetitive, backend tasks, enabling people to spend more time on meaningful collaboration and innovation. By reframing AI as a partner in human progress, this discussion invites business leaders, technologists, and creatives alike to imagine a future where efficiency and humanity coexist.
