#Anthropic is committing 5% of #shares to a new #PublicBenefitFund, with up to 2% added per 50% valuation rise, subject to approval. The wholly-owned LLC enables flexible giving; equity excludes lobbying. Combined with prior pledges, roughly 20% of shares support public benefit. https://www.anthropic.com/news/public-benefit-fund?AIagents.at #AIagent #AI #ML #NLP #LLM #GenAI
