Claude adds Anthropic Economic Index connector for AI usage data by occupation and task

Anthropic said Monday that its Claude chatbot can now answer questions using data from the Anthropic Economic Index, a public dataset measuring how artificial intelligence is used across the economy. The company posted on X that users can ask which occupations use AI the most or what kinds of tasks people are automating. The answers draw directly from the Index data. The connector allows direct queries of the dataset through the chatbot interface. Anthropic did not immediately provide additional technical details about the integration.
