Daniela Amodei is the President and Co-Founder of Anthropic, one of the world's most influential AI safety companies. A UC Santa Cruz English Literature graduate and former classical flute scholarship recipient, she pivoted from Capitol Hill communications to Stripe to OpenAI before co-founding Anthropic in 2021 alongside her brother Dario Amodei and six other OpenAI colleagues. At Anthropic, she runs all commercial, operational, and cultural operations while Dario leads research and technical strategy — a division of labor that has scaled the company to a $380 billion valuation, over 300,000 enterprise customers, and projected $10 billion in 2025 revenue. Named #1 on Fortune's Most Powerful Women list for 2025 and to TIME's 100 Most Influential People of 2026, Daniela champions a vision of AI safety as competitive advantage, humanities education as future-proof, and 'low politics, high integrity' as the only culture worth building.
Dario Amodei is the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, the AI safety company behind Claude. A former VP of Research at OpenAI and co-inventor of Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), he holds a PhD in biophysics from Princeton and has co-authored some of the most cited papers in AI safety and scaling laws. He leads Anthropic — valued at $380 billion as of early 2026 — with the conviction that building safe, interpretable AI is not only compatible with building powerful AI, but inseparable from it. His landmark essay 'Machines of Loving Grace' envisions AI compressing decades of scientific progress into years, potentially eliminating most disease and radically expanding human prosperity.
Woz (WOZCODE) is a Claude Code plugin built by MIT engineers Ben Collins and Brad Eckert that cuts AI coding costs by 25-55% and speeds up most tasks by 30-40%. Instead of letting Claude Code burn tokens on bloated built-in file operations, WOZCODE replaces them with smarter, leaner alternatives - three specialized agents (code, explore, plan) that do more with less. It installs in two commands, runs locally with no data exfiltration, and works alongside your existing Claude subscription. Backed by Y Combinator (W25) and a $6M seed round, Woz is building the efficiency layer that makes AI-assisted development economically viable at scale.
