This is the 4th such report published by Anthropic which provides a deep-dive into 2M Claude chats.
report
According to it, most AI usage still looks more like collaboration than replacement, with humans in the driver's seat for the majority of tasks.
Brief overview of what has changed since the last such report:
- Usage remains highly concentrated across tasks - The ten most common tasks represent 24% of usage on Claude.ai, up from 23% in our last report. For first-party (1P) API enterprise customers, concentration among tasks increased more notably: the top ten tasks now represent 32% of traffic, up from 28% in the last report.
- Augmentation is once again more common than automation on Claude.ai - In the previous report it was noted that automated use had risen to exceed augmented use on Claude.ai, perhaps capturing both improving capabilities and greater familiarity among users with LLMs. Data from November 2025 points to a broad-based shift back toward augmented use on Claude.ai: The share of conversations classified as augmented jumped 5pp to 52% and the share deemed automated fell 4pp to 45%.2 Product changes during this period-including file creation capabilities, persistent memory, and Skills for workflow customization-may have shifted usage patterns toward more collaborative, human-in-the-loop interactions.
- Within the US, lower usage states have relatively faster gains in adoption - Within the US, usage per capita remains largely shaped by how wellmatched the workforce is to broader Claude usage: For example, states with a larger share of workers in computer and mathematical occupations tend to have higher usage. Indeed, the top five US states account for nearly half (50%) of all usage despite representing only 38% of the working-age population.
- Global usage shows little sign of increasing or decreasing regional convergence - Globally, Claude usage per capita-as captured by the Anthropic AI Usage Index (AUI)-remains highly uneven and strongly correlated with GDP. These gaps are stable: we see no evidence that low-use countries are catching up or that high-use countries are pulling away.
