Anthropic says its Claude chatbot drives 26% of the company’s research and development work related to artificial intelligence. The company frames this as evidence that AI systems can directly accelerate parts of how future models are developed.
The disclosure also highlights how Claude is used alongside employees. According to the company, Claude collaborates with staffers for about 90% of their work. Bloomberg and NDTV both report the same core figures—26% of R&D and roughly 90% of staff work—though they emphasize different implications for what the company’s internal metrics show about AI’s role in its workflow.
Taken together, the reports indicate that Anthropic is increasingly integrating Claude into both experimental processes and day-to-day staff tasks. The sources do not provide further detail in the excerpts on how the company measures “drives” or how the remaining portions of R&D are supported, nor do they specify whether the figures reflect specific projects or a broader internal methodology.
