Announced August 4: Mariano-Florentino (Tino) Cuéllar, who just stepped down as President of the Carnegie Endowment and previously served on the California Supreme Court and directed Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute, will lead policy, international engagement, and government relations reporting to Daniela Amodei. Timing is the story. It lands while Anthropic is litigating the Defense Department's supply-chain blacklisting and suing over export controls it argues were applied without statutory basis, after refusing to permit Claude for lethal autonomous weapons and mass domestic surveillance. Creating the role at all says Anthropic now treats government conflict as a standing function, not a crisis.
