Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark shared an internal model suggesting that US GDP could approach $44 trillion by 2030 under favorable AI adoption assumptions, a figure that would represent an increase of nearly 50% from current levels.

The estimate was presented not as a forecast but as a scenario for capacity planning. Clark stressed that the projection is highly uncertain and should not be treated as a baseline expectation.
