According to a survey conducted by Anthropic, about half of Claude users say AI can already handle half or more of their work. The survey, which included roughly 9,700 users of Claude Chat, Cowork, and Code, revealed that 33 percent see AI as usable for 30 to 60 percent of their tasks. Another 14 percent estimate AI can manage 60 to 90 percent of their responsibilities. Around four percent believe Claude could already perform their entire job. The survey also highlights that most users currently see AI covering 10 to 60 percent of their tasks, with expectations rising significantly over the next year.
Looking 12 months ahead, about 26 percent of respondents expect AI to take over most of their work. The survey specifically asked about concrete tasks AI handles, such as writing a text. Work is often more than the sum of individual tasks, especially due to the knowledge transfer between them. Anthropic's data shows that the most work-related uses include marketing content (80 percent), blog or article writing (81 percent), and database queries (82 percent). These figures refer to Claude's Artifacts feature, where the output is a concrete deliverable like a document or interactive graphic, not just a chat reply.
Anthropic noted that expectations about the pace of progress are "strikingly consistent" across all groups, regardless of experience, location, or profession. The study describes a "rising tide" of AI capabilities improving broadly. Most respondents hope to work alongside AI, not be replaced by it. They want AI to handle boring routine work and for the gains to be shared widely, according to the report.
