Businesses Are Using AI to Automate Work, Replace Human Jobs | Entrepreneur
"showing that more than three in four (77%) of the businesses using Claude did so to automate tasks. In comparison, only 12% of businesses used Claude to augment or enhance work. "The 77% automation rate suggests enterprises use Claude to delegate tasks, rather than as a collaborative tool," the report stated. "Given clear automation patterns in business deployment, this may also bring disruption in labor markets, potentially displacing those workers whose roles are most likely to face automation.""
"In fact, the tools are powerful enough to potentially take over coding for software engineers. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei predicted at a Council on Foreign Relations event in March that AI would write every line of code for software engineers within a year. "In 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code," Amodei said at the event."
More than three in four businesses using Claude do so to automate tasks, while only 12% use it to augment or enhance work. Automation use concentrates on writing code and performing administrative tasks. Claude and similar tools generate blocks of code from text prompts and can potentially take over coding responsibilities for software engineers. Predictions indicate AI may write essentially all code within 12 months and could eliminate half of entry-level white-collar jobs within five years, raising unemployment to 10%–20%. Widespread delegation of tasks to AI risks disrupting labor markets and displacing workers in roles most susceptible to automation.
