Who’s using AI the most? The Anthropic Economic Index breaks down the data


New Anthropic study uncovers AI's true impact on modern workforce: 57% augmentation vs 43% automation across industries, based on analysis of 4 million Claude interactions.

“We find that 57% of interactions show augmentative patterns (e.g., back-and-forth iteration on a task) while 43% suggest automation (e.g., fulfilling a request with minimal human involvement),” the report states. This disparity highlights the current limitations of AI, which excels at text-based and analytical tasks but struggles with jobs that require hands-on work, manual dexterity, or complex interpersonal interactions. The report also provides an early warning for policymakers: while AI is not yet replacing entire jobs at scale, its increasing presence in high-value tasks could have a profound impact on workforce dynamics.
