Anthropic's head of economics just explained why Anthropic's CEO was wrong about a white-collar bloodbath

Peter McCrory, Anthropic's head of economics, published an analysis showing AI has not caused material US unemployment. The unemployment rate at 4.2% in June and no relative deterioration in AI-exposed workers contradicts CEO Dario Amodei's warnings of an imminent white-collar bloodbath. McCrory's data uses Bureau of Labor Statistics and Claude usage patterns showing AI acts as a "thought partner" rather than replacement.
