Anthropic expands its Economic Futures Programme to the United Kingdom and Europe to help researchers, policymakers and civil society understand how AI adoption will affect employment, productivity and growth in the coming years.
What Anthropic is announcing and why it matters
AI adoption in Europe is accelerating. But are public policies ready to handle its effects on the labour market and the economy? Anthropic bets the answer lies in combining real data, research and public dialogue.
The programme brings three basic pillars to the region: funding for research, discussion forums such as a symposium at the London School of Economics, and more disaggregated data on real AI use across European countries and sectors.
"Europe has an opportunity to develop approaches to AI adoption that boost growth and share the benefits across the labour market" (summary of Anthropic and LSE's position).
