Anthropic puts 5% of shares in public benefit fund…Is it greenwashing AI threat concerns?
Anthropic, a US AI company planning an initial public offering (IPO) this year, will allocate 5% of its shares to a public benefit fund. This brings the total proportion of shares assigned to public benefit to 20%, including prior commitments from co-founders. The company announced the establishment of the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund on its official website, stating that the fund's shares will not be used for political contributions or lobbying.
Anthropic plans to use the fund to support various initiatives, including research on AI's impact on the labor market.
