Anthropic Economic Index: AI and Automation in the Workforce

The Anthropic Economic Index analyzes AI's impact on the workforce using anonymized data from the Claude AI platform. The study reveals that AI is primarily used to augment human capabilities rather than replace them, particularly in mid-to-high wage, digitizable roles. Software engineering sees the most AI integration, followed by creative fields. This data suggests a gradual evolution where AI boosts productivity, rather than causing mass job displacement. The index uses the Clio framework and O*NET task taxonomy to classify AI interactions, revealing that many standardized work activities now involve AI, especially in information-rich domains.
