Anthropic hires ex-BHSI exec Shokrai to lead business risk and insurance | The Insurer

Anthropic has appointed former Berkshire Hathaway executive Monica Shokrai as head of business risk and insurance, she said on LinkedIn on Tuesday.

Shokrai said she would strengthen Anthropic's ⁠risk management in support of "safe, responsible and cutting-edge AI research", partnering with the broader insurance industry to shape the future of AI-centred coverage.

Shokrai has worked with insurers and brokers including ⁠Berkshire Hathaway and WTW. She also oversaw Google's insurance segment for almost eight years.

In June, Anthropic ⁠said would expand its Project Glasswing initiative to a further 150 organizations, ⁠quadrupling access to its Claude Mythos Preview AI ⁠model, which had previously been available only to an initial cohort of roughly 50 partners.
