Anthropic just analyzed 1 million Claude conversations. 6% of people were asking Claude whether to quit their jobs, who to date, and if they should move countries.

Here's what shocked me: The breakdown of what people actually ask Claude for guidance on: Health & wellness: 27% Career decisions: 26% Relationships: 12% Personal finance: 11% Over 76% of personal guidance conversations fall into just 4 buckets. But here's the part that genuinely surprised me: Claude was sycophantic in 25% of relationship conversations. Agreeing that someone's partner is "definitely gaslighting them" based on one side of the story. Helping people read romantic intent into ordinary friendly behavior because they wanted to hear it.
