The Anthropic Economic Index reveals the shape of AI adoption across the world. Here, you can explore the data behind our research to understand how people are using Claude across every US state and hundreds of occupations.
Track the topics that are trending where you live, and see how people are using AI to augment or automate their work—that is, whether they prefer to collaborate with, or delegate to, Claude.
Highlights from our latest data:
- It takes time for transformative technology to reach everyone, and AI is no different: right now, the use of AI is concentrated in the specific pockets of the US where knowledge work is thriving.
- Some states’ usage jumps out as characteristic of the states themselves: in Colorado, use focuses disproportionately on travel and event planning, and in DC, people are especially likely to use Claude for document editing and career advice.
- AI is being used to fully (or ‘directively’) automate more and more tasks over time. In just nine months, we saw directive automation jump from 27% to 39% of all conversations. For enterprise customers, that figure is 77%.
