About half of Claude users say AI can already handle half or more of their work.

That's according to a survey of roughly 9,700 Claude users (Chat, Cowork, Code) by Anthropic. About 33 percent see AI as usable for 30 to 60 percent of their tasks. Another 14 percent put that figure at 60 to 90 percent. Around four percent believe Claude could already do their entire job.

Share of work tasks AI could handle according to Claude users, today (gray) vs. in 12 months (orange). Most users currently see AI covering 10-60 percent of their tasks. A year from now, far more expect AI to handle 60 percent or more. | Source: Anthropic

Looking 12 months ahead, about 26 percent expect AI to take over most of their work. The survey asks specifically about concrete tasks AI handles, like writing a text. Work is usually more than the sum of individual tasks, especially the knowledge transfer between them.

The most work-related uses in Anthropic's data are 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.
