Anthropic disclosed the workings of the Long-Term Benefit Trust (LTBT), an independent governance body layered on top of its public benefit corporation structure. The Trust holds Class T stock carrying the power to elect and remove board members against time- and funding-based milestones, and was set to elect a majority of the board within four years. Its five financially disinterested trustees were drawn from AI safety, national security, policy, and social enterprise: Neil Buddy Shah (chair), Jason Matheny, Kanika Bahl, Paul Christiano, and Zach Robinson. Anthropic described the Trust as a different kind of stockholder, designed to hold the board accountable to public benefit beyond investor interests.
