Summary
Anthropic released the first Anthropic Public Record, a public-opinion survey of nearly 52,000 Americans fielded in late 2025. The results show job-loss and cognitive-dependency concerns, bipartisan support for government involvement in AI regulation, demand for privacy, child-safety and liability action, and only 15% trust in AI companies to decide how AI is developed and used.
What changed
Anthropic published the first wave of Anthropic Public Record survey results, including governance, risk, job-impact, dependency, and trust findings from a large U.S. respondent base.
Why it matters
The survey gives Anthropic a public data asset for policy and safety positioning. For AI vendors and enterprise buyers, it shows that regulation, liability, privacy, and child safety are mainstream adoption constraints that will shape procurement, compliance, and deployment decisions.
