AI is mainly automating work instead of enhancing it, which is leading the technology to be a catalyst for replacing jobs, according to a new study.AI startup Anthropic, which was valued at $183 billion earlier this month, released a new report on Monday showing that more than three in four (77%) of the businesses using Claude did so to automate tasks.

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. I own a firm dedicated to business optimization. Since the passage of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” or OBBBA, I’m now more inclined than ever to advise my larger and more growth-focused clients to consider the C corporation over other popular entity types such as LLCs and S corporations. That said, for smaller businesses and owners who rely year-by-year on their business profits for personal living expenses, the LLC or S corporation may still be the right fit for maximum tax savings.A refresher on pass-through incomeIn order to understand the impact…
