Anthropic

We've signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Australian Government to collaborate on AI safety research and support the goals of Australia's National AI Plan. We're excited to deepen our engagement with Australian customers, researchers, and policymakers. Read more on our blog: https://lnkd.in/ghehzEeS

New from the Anthropic Economic Index: we study how people’s use of Claude changes with experience. Longer-term users are more likely to iterate carefully with Claude, and less likely to hand it full autonomy. They attempt higher-value tasks, and receive more successful responses. Our report also finds that since November 2025, consumer use has become less concentrated: the top 10 tasks now make up 19% of conversations, down from 24%. We also see a rise in personal queries, and continued convergence in adoption rates in the US. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/e_nw8bhy

Over one week in December, we invited Claude.ai users to share how they use AI, what they dream it could make possible, and what they fear it might do. Nearly 81,000 people participated—the largest and most multilingual qualitative study of its kind. To do research at this scale, we used Anthropic Interviewer—a version of Claude prompted to conduct a conversational interview. We heard from people across 159 countries in 70 different languages. These interviews capture texture that surveys can’t. They render in detail how people worldwide are already experiencing AI's opportunities and risks. We plan to use Anthropic Interviewer regularly, on different topics, to help inform how AI can be of benefit to everyone.

Anthropic is expanding to Australia & New Zealand. We’ll be opening an office in Sydney later this year—our fourth in Asia-Pacific after Tokyo, Bengaluru, and Seoul. We’ve begun hiring a local team and are exploring partnerships and investments in line with trends in local Claude use and Australia’s national AI priorities. We're excited to deepen our engagement with customers, researchers, and policymakers across the country. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ggCUQWN5

Anthropic has acquired Vercept to advance Claude’s computer use capabilities. The Vercept team brings deep expertise in how AI systems see and interact with software, some of the most challenging problems in this space. We're excited to welcome them to Anthropic. https://lnkd.in/gEU8GJEm

We're updating our Responsible Scaling Policy (RSP) to its third version. Since it came into effect in 2023, we've learned a lot about the RSP’s benefits and its shortcomings. This update improves the policy, reinforcing what worked and committing us to even greater transparency. We’re now separating the safety commitments we’ll make unilaterally and our recommendations for the industry. We’re also committing to publish new Frontier Safety Roadmaps with detailed safety goals, and Risk Reports that quantify risk across all our deployed models. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eqd8Vcr2
