According to two sources privy to the inside information, Anthropic is poised to bestow shares endowed with super voting rights upon its co-founders, including CEO Dario Amodei. This strategic move is designed to fortify their stance against external shareholder pressures. This will be the inaugural instance where Anthropic's management secures super voting rights, a practice frequently adopted by the founders of tech enterprises. Another source highlighted the significance of this maneuver for Anthropic, especially considering the relatively modest stake held by its founders. Furthermore, the company is contemplating the retention of its current cohort of non-shareholder trustees via a distinctive share class. This will empower them to elect a majority of the board positions and erect unconventional barriers to shield against external shareholder meddling.
