Put a culture of stopping work at 40 hours. Allow the work to be the work and stop deadlines.
Otherwise, people will take every time savings possible. If I'm using AI for anything, it's because it's important enough to someone else for me to do but not important enough to sacrifice my own time.
I don't think it's about people being scared, at least from what I've seen. It's about people being exhausted.

And you're saying they won't if you only cap the maximum amount of time they can work?
> It's about people being exhausted
Work can be difficult and exhausting and I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. When I started my job I was tired often because it was hard. I got better at it over time.
I'm really not into any job where my value is strictly tied to the time I put into it. I much prefer a job that some weeks takes me a lot of time and some weeks takes not as much time.
If people are limited in how much time they work, they'll use AI to try to get more work done in that time. You'd have to also limit how much work people are expected to do. Good luck advocating for that change in modern corporations.
