今天，我们宣布启动“Anthropic经济未来计划”，这是一项新的倡议，旨在支持聚焦于应对人工智能经济影响的研究和政策制定。我们发起这一计划，是为了深入了解人工智能如何重塑我们的工作方式，并提出应对这一转变的建议。该计划将作为Anthropic经济指数及其关于人工智能在劳动力中使用情况洞察的延伸。我们的目标是推动新研究的发展，并提出可能的应对措施，以应对人工智能对劳动力市场和全球经济的影响。为实现这一目标，经济未来计划将聚焦于三个支柱：

• 研究资助：提供资助、API使用额度和合作机会，支持研究人员调查人工智能对劳动力、生产力和价值创造的影响；
• 基于证据的政策：搭建研究人员、政策制定者和实践者的论坛，基于真实数据开发和评估应对人工智能经济影响的政策建议；
• 经济测量与数据：扩大Anthropic经济指数的规模，创建追踪人工智能经济使用和影响的纵向数据集，定期发布公开数据和研究成果。

这三个支柱相辅相成：更好的数据促进更优质的研究，进而助力更有效的政策制定。

计划启动阶段，经济未来计划将资助研究，并汇聚独立研究人员和专家，共同研究人工智能的经济影响并提出政策建议。具体措施包括：

• 经济未来研究奖：我们将提供最高5万美元的快速资助，用于人工智能经济影响的实证研究。研究奖申请将持续受理，首批奖项预计于8月中旬发放。详情及申请请见此链接 [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSchDkB0UMUisYZPcL41CVA_fS73RF99jXyJRoumiEEF7_fpJw/viewform]。
• 经济未来研讨会：我们正在征集基于证据的政策建议，提供切实可行的应对人工智能对劳动力市场和经济影响的方案。入选提案的作者将受邀于2025年秋季在华盛顿特区和欧洲举办的Anthropic主办研讨会上进行展示。提案截止日期为2025年7月25日。详情及申请请见此链接 [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kI2utcTfkwsjne_8Ut2O9jLCS2s8xY47sR3C_AIlkaA/edit]。
• 与研究机构的战略合作：我们期待与独立研究机构合作，扩大学术界和研究组织的生态系统，共同推进相关研究。我们将为合作伙伴提供API使用额度及其他资源，支持人工智能经济应用的研究。如果您是独立研究机构，有意参与我们的经济未来工作，请将贵机构简介及拟支持的具体研究内容发送至 economicfutures@anthropic.com。

为何此刻尤为重要

人工智能带来的经济问题既紧迫又复杂。政策制定者和行业领导者需要对人工智能在全球劳动力市场和工作场所的持续扩展有一个严谨的认知。关于人工智能经济结果的观点众多，但我们认为，必须以真实世界数据为基础，持续进行实证分析，追踪人工智能使用趋势。这也是我们推出经济指数 [https://www.anthropic.com/economic-index] 的初衷——发布关于人工智能在经济中使用的研究和公开数据集。

但我们也认识到，仅发布数据是不够的。我们还必须讨论管理人工智能对经济和工作的影响的潜在解决方案。人工智能驱动的经济所需的政策框架，将要求政策制定者思考关于工作、意义以及我们对经济的期望等根本性问题。已有迹象表明 [https://www.axios.com/2025/05/29/ai-college-grads-work-jobs]，人工智能正在影响劳动力市场。因此，我们需要与人工智能发展同步的研究，实时了解这项技术在哪些方面创造了经济机会——新工作岗位、生产力提升、新型价值创造形式——以及在哪些方面可能引发劳动力动态的剧烈变化。我们相信，这样的努力能够帮助政策制定者和社会更好地应对未来。

展望未来

社会对人工智能的反应并非注定。我们今天关于如何开发、部署和治理人工智能的决策，将产生深远影响。

Anthropic经济未来计划体现了我们支持研究和政策社区应对这些挑战和机遇的承诺。我们期待与大家共同学习，助力为人工智能驱动的经济做好准备。

Today, we're announcing the Anthropic Economic Futures Program, a new initiative to support research and policy development focused on addressing AI’s economic impacts. We’re launching this initiative to understand how AI is reshaping the way we work and surface proposals on how to prepare for this shift. This program will serve as an extension of Anthropic’s Economic Index and its insights on AI usage across the workforce. Our goal for this program is to contribute to the development of new research and potential responses to the impacts of AI on the labor market and global economy. To accomplish this, the Economic Futures Program will focus on three pillars:

• Research Grants: Providing grants, API credits, and partnerships to enable researchers to investigate AI's effects on labor, productivity, and value creation;
• Evidence-Based Policy: Creating forums for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to develop and evaluate policy proposals on preparing for AI’s economic impacts, grounded in real-world data; and
• Economic Measurement and Data: Scaling the Anthropic Economic Index to create longitudinal datasets tracking AI's economic usage and impact, with regular public data and research releases.

These pillars support and build on each other: better data enables better research, which helps inform better policy.

To start, the Economic Futures Program will fund research and bring together independent researchers and experts to study AI’s economic impacts and propose policy responses. We’ll do this through the following:

• Economic Futures Research Awards: We will offer rapid grants up to $50,000 for empirical research on AI's economic impacts. Applications for research awards will be accepted on a rolling basis, with initial awards issued in mid-August. For full details, learn more and apply here.
• Economic Futures Symposia: We are seeking evidence-based policy proposals that provide actionable recommendations for responding to AI’s effect on the labor market and economy. Authors of selected proposals will be invited to present at Anthropic-hosted symposia events in Washington, DC and Europe in Fall 2025. Proposals for the symposia are due July 25, 2025. Learn more and apply here.
• Strategic Partnerships with Research Institutions: We’re eager to partner with independent research institutions to expand the ecosystem of academics and research organizations who are contributing to this body of work. We will provide partners with API credits and other resources to support research into AI’s economic use and application. If you are an independent research institution interested in partnering with us on our Economic Futures work, please email a brief description of your organization and the specific research efforts you propose to support to economicfutures@anthropic.com.

Why This Matters Now

The economic questions raised by AI are both urgent and complex. Policymakers and industry leaders need a rigorous view of what’s actually happening as AI adoption continues to expand across global labor markets and workplaces. There's no shortage of opinions about AI's economic outcomes. We believe it's fundamental to ground these conversations in real-world data and invest in ongoing empirical analysis to track AI usage trends over time. That’s why we launched the Economic Index –publishing research and public datasets on AI usage across the economy–as a first step.

But we recognize that publishing data alone is not enough. We must also discuss potential solutions for managing AI’s impact on the economy and work. The proposals and frameworks we’ll need for the AI-enabled economy will require policymakers to consider fundamental questions about work, meaning, and what we want from the economy. There are already early signs of AI’s impact on the workforce. This is why we need research that keeps pace with AI’s development, to understand in real-time where this technology is creating economic opportunity—new jobs, increased productivity, novel forms of value creation—as well as where it might be causing dramatic shifts in labor dynamics. We believe this kind of effort can equip policymakers and broader society to successfully navigate the future.

Looking Ahead

Society’s response to AI is not predetermined. The decisions we make today about how to develop, deploy, and govern AI will have long-term ramifications.

The Anthropic Economic Futures Program represents our commitment to supporting the research and policy communities in meeting these challenges and opportunities. We're excited to build on what we learn together and help prepare for an AI-enabled economy.
