Anthropic CFO: AI Writes 90% of Code, White-Collar Workers Shift to Supervision

Anthropic CFO Krishna Rao says AI now handles about 90% of the company's code writing. Internal AI systems take charge of execution tasks like software development and financial reporting, while human employees shift to supervision, judgment and strategic work.

Claude hasn't reduced hiring; instead, it boosts team efficiency, leading to more recruitment. Monthly financial reviews are 90%-95% complete before human intervention, and reports that took hours now take 30 minutes. Employees spend less time on information sorting and focus more on analysis and decision-making.

In the industry, some companies push AI into office scenarios, requiring employees to learn AI tools, while others lay off staff citing efficiency gains. Whether AI replaces or enhances efficiency is still debated, but Anthropic employees now manage AI systems more than handle tasks directly.
