📈 Anthropic’s AI economy forecast Anthropic modeled what happens if AI adoption goes into overdrive and the numbers are wild. By 2030, its extreme scenario sees U.S. GDP rising 32.4%, annual growth reaching as high as 15%, while intellectual-labor wages fall 10%+. Meanwhile, capital’s share of the economy could jump from 40% to 54.8%. So the scary part isn’t AI making the economy poorer. It’s making the economy dramatically richer while programmers, analysts and other knowledge workers potentially get paid less or replaced entirely. Anthropic says this isn’t a prediction. But modeling an economy like this for 2030 shows just how seriously the AI labor shock is being considered. @aipost 🏴
