Anthropic的内部数据为AI密集型工作场所中的初级技术员工发出了严峻警告。该公司——AI聊天机器人Claude的开发方——在一份新发布的内部报告中表示，随着AI代理在公司内部被部署以编写代码、修复错误和处理其他任务，公司正在招聘“更小比例的初级技术职位”。到8月，Anthropic表示其交互式AI代理每记录一小时人类员工的工作时间，就自身记录了六小时的工作时间。
Anthropic's own data offers a stark warning for entry-level tech employees in an AI-heavy workplace. The company behind the AI chatbot Claude said in a newly released internal report that it has been hiring for a "smaller share of junior technical positions" as AI agents have been deployed across the firm to write code, fix bugs, and handle other tasks. By August, Anthropic said its interactive AI agents were logging six hours of work for every hour a human employee logged.
该公司新报告中标题为《Anthropic的就业形势如何变化》的图表显示，2025年初，初级员工占该公司技术部门招聘人数的27%。到今年6月，这一比例骤降至9%。同期，技术部门中初级员工的占比也从21%下降至14%，而初级职位的空缺率从去年底的20%以上降至6%。图表显示，这一下降趋势在非技术部门不那么明显：同期，初级员工的招聘比例从31%降至26%，而他们在总人数中的占比却从23%上升至25%。
A chart published in the new report titled "How Employment is Changing at Anthropic" shows that junior workers made up 27% of hires in technical departments at the company in early 2025. By June of this year, that number had plummeted to 9%. The share of junior-level workers in technical departments had also declined over the same period from 21% to 14%, while open roles for junior positions slid to 6% after topping 20% late last year, the chart shows. That downward trend was less pronounced in non-technical departments, where hiring of junior workers fell from 31% to 26% over the same timeframe, while their share of head count rose from 23% to 25%.
与此同时，非技术部门的初级职位空缺率从31%降至13%。Anthropic表示，这些变化发生在公司内部AI使用快速扩张的背景下。报告称：“随着AI代理在公司内部普及，Anthropic开始实现人均产出更多代码、每位代表成交更多销售、处理更多合同。”报告补充道：“追踪同一名员工随时间的变化，随着他们采用新的AI工具，产出随之提升。”
Junior job openings in non-technical departments, meanwhile, dropped from 31% to 13%. Anthropic said the changes came as AI usage inside the company rapidly expanded. "As AI agents diffused through the company, Anthropic began producing more code per person, closing more sales per rep, and processing more contracts," the report said. "Following the same employee over time, output rose as they adopted new AI tools."
报告进一步指出：“我们发现，即使公司在增长，初级技术职位的相对招聘也在放缓。工程师和非技术员工的生产力都实现了跃升，且在他们采用编码代理时这种提升尤为显著。”这些发现的发布正值Anthropic首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代伊成为科技行业中关于AI可能如何颠覆就业的最突出声音之一。
It added, "We find that even as the company grows, relative hiring in junior technical positions has slowed. Productivity for both engineers and non-technical employees has leapt up and did so sharply when they adopted coding agents." The findings land as Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has emerged as one of the tech industry's most prominent voices on how AI could disrupt jobs.
阿莫代伊多次表示，人工智能可能在未来几年内消除多达一半的初级白领岗位。“作为这项技术的生产者，我们有责任和义务对即将到来的情况保持诚实，”阿莫代伊去年在一次采访中表示。
Amodei has repeatedly said that AI may eliminate up to half of entry-level white-collar jobs over the next several years. "We, as the producers of this technology, have a duty and an obligation to be honest about what is coming," Amodei said in an interview last year.
