‘Collaboration Between AI & Humans’
Anthropic has said that Claude Explains is a great example of collaboration between AI and humans, reminiscent of Microsoft’s Frontier Firm prediction for future businesses. In the setup, humans and agents work together, with one human worker managing several AI agents. Microsoft claimed this would help humans get back to doing the creative tasks that they do best.
The fact that Claude Explains was a collaboration suggests that AI in its current iteration, is unable to compete with the creative and editorial skills of humans. An Anthropic spokesperson said that:
“The editorial process requires human expertise.” – Anthropic spokesperson
Likewise, the company previously confirmed that it was still hiring across roles that involve writing, despite Claude’s blog drafting abilities. This further suggests a future where AI is assisting professional, human content writers and editors.
