Anthropic is seeking shareholder approval for a new corporate structure that would grant its seven co-founders, including CEO Dario Amodei, collective voting control in most corporate matters. According to reports, this new arrangement would award the co-founders a combined 50.1% of voting power, as long as three of them retain a minimum number of shares in the company. This structure is similar to one in place at Palantir.

The proposed structure would give the co-founders significant influence over major corporate decisions. The Information first reported on this development.

The White House has also been in discussions with Anthropic and OpenAI regarding access to their new artificial intelligence models. However, details of these discussions are not directly related to Anthropic's proposed corporate structure.
