The Dhaka Times Desk Bill Gates, the co-founder and billionaire of the world's top software company Microsoft, said that technology will never compete with people. But artificial intelligence (AI) could also make a three-day work week possible for humans. This is because AI will relieve humans of many manual tasks.
Bill Gates recently made these comments while speaking on his podcast 'What Now' with South African comedian and author Trevor Noah. When asked by Noah about the threat of artificial intelligence in the workplace or the job market, Bill Gates expressed hope that AI will reduce the burden of manual labor on humans and allow them to engage in more constructive work.
Bill Gates said that 'the purpose of life is not just to have a job. So if you end up with a society where you have to work three days a week, maybe that's okay.'
He also said that machines will do most of the manual work in the future world. This will reduce the need for human manual labor.
Giving an example of the evolution of work, he further said that his grandfather considered farming as real work, that idea changed during his father's time. His father did various jobs. Gates said only 2 percent of Americans are involved in agriculture.
The billionaire also said that if technological progress proceeds at a reasonable pace and if the government helps people to adapt to these changes, then these changes will be positive.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
