Hi all,

It feels like every month a quote from Anthropic goes viral about how SWEs won't exist in the future due to AI.

I wanted to see if Anthropic is actually hiring less as a result of AI. So, I compiled a dataset of their monthly SWE job openings juxtaposed with quotes from execs about AI replacement.

The results are clear: Anthropic is claiming that SWE jobs will go away, while simultaneously hiring more SWEs than ever. Since Jan '25 their open SWE roles are up 170% and the curve is accelerating.

It's important to remember that AI companies have an incentive to claim that their tech will automate away jobs because that's what their customers/investors want to hear.

Right, that can definitely be done. I was just wondering what specific things you're hoping to find with a fuzzy search so I can make sure it's implemented well

Thank you! What more specific things would you like to search for?

I'm using 4o-mini + structured output mode

Thanks! I've actually already sent a message to the hiring cafe creator and didn't hear back. Might be worth another shot
