Odd Lots · Anthropic's Co-Founder and Top Economist on Doing Research at the AI Frontier · 19 Jun 2026 podcast

I haven't mapped out the exact sort of game theory matrix, the two by two matrix, and how you would set up all the payoffs.

But there could be multiple equilibria.

And so then the question is, how do you coordinate on which of the two different equilibria that you end up in?

We talk a lot about this race to the top, that we want to exhibit the type of behavior that we think is broadly beneficial to society.

That's what we do with the Economic Index.

We open source a lot of that data.

We put research out into the world.

And my sense is that that has actually been very useful and sort of viewed as valuable.

And that's one way that we can push in the direction of getting other coordination on the good outcomes that we care about.

ABC Business Daily · Anthropic's Peter McCrory on Claude and the big AI disruption · 29 May 2026 podcast

I tried to get in contact multiple times.

It's a great question.

Not exactly.

So I'm the head of economics, which basically means...

My team is trying to make sense of the economic implications of AI.

We're a part of the Anthropic Institute, which is this new effort to produce substantive, rigorous, clear-eyed research about AI's impact on society, on the economy.

And it's not intended to convince people to feel one way or another, but rather to...

be reflective and careful in how we make sense of how people and businesses are using Claude and what that might mean about the impact of AI today on the economy and also what might be on the horizon.

So I would say that the bulk of the work that my team does is...

mostly trying to catch up to the present.

So about a year ago, we introduced the Anthropic Economic Index, which is a measure of how people and businesses use CLOD for specific tasks associated with jobs throughout the economy.
