Research, curriculum and grading: new data sheds light on how professors are using AI - Lee V. Gaines, NPR

New research from Anthropic — the company behind the AI chatbot Claude — suggests professors around the world are using AI for curriculum development, designing lessons, conducting research, writing grant proposals, managing budgets, grading student work and designing their own interactive learning tools, among other uses. "When we looked into the data late last year, we saw that of all the ways people were using Claude, education made up two out of the top four use cases," says Drew Bent, education lead at Anthropic and one of the researchers who led the study.
