The
Anthropic
Institute
From inside a frontier AI lab, we confront the most significant challenges about how powerful AI will impact the world around us.
The Anthropic Institute exists to understand and shape the consequences of powerful AI systems. The Institute focuses on four major research areas that will determine whether these systems deliver radical upsides in science, security, economic development, and human agency—or whether they will pose a range of unprecedented risks.
Projects
Problems we're
working on
AI, jobs, and the economy.
How is AI reshaping jobs, inside Anthropic and elsewhere? And how do these impacts add up for economies around the world?
Threats and resilience.
What opportunities for greater societal resilience will powerful AI give us, and how could misuse of AI threaten or fracture social cohesion?
How AI systems behave in the wild.
What are the expressed “values” of advanced AI systems? How will societies shape their behavior, and how will they affect our own?
AI research and development.
If AI systems are being used to autonomously develop and improve themselves, how do humans stay in the loop, and how will these systems be governed?
