Bernanke Joins Anthropic Oversight Trust

Anthropic added former Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke to its Long-Term Benefit Trust, the independent body that advises the company and can appoint or remove a majority of its board.

The move strengthens Anthropic's unusual governance structure with added economic expertise as the company grows, faces potential public-market scrutiny, and continues to draw attention from U.S. regulators. The reporting also connects the appointment to broader debate over AI's effects on labor, finance, and capital formation.
