The Anthropic Economic Index
The Anthropic Economic Index is an initiative aimed at understanding AI's effects on labor markets and the economy over time. The Index's reports provide data and analysis based on millions of anonymized conversations on Claude.ai. It paints a clear picture of how AI is being incorporated into real-world tasks across the modern economy. Usage is concentrated on software development and technical tasks. AI use leans towards augmentation - its use is more prevalent for tasks associated with mid-to-high wage occupations but lower for both the lowest- and highest-paid roles.
