Anthropic has introduced the Economic Futures program, a multidisciplinary initiative designed to explore how artificial intelligence influences economic systems. The program supports academic research through funding, fosters dialogue among policymakers, and gathers empirical data on how AI tools like Claude are being applied across various sectors. A key component of the project is the Economic Index, powered by Clio, a privacy-preserving system that enables analysis of user interactions with Claude without compromising personal data. The initiative also hosted a symposium in Washington, DC, where experts presented policy recommendations aimed at guiding responsible AI integration into the economy. These efforts reflect a broader commitment to generating actionable insights grounded in real-world usage patterns.
