“I don’t have a law degree. I’m not a computer scientist,” says Daniela Amodei, president and cofounder of Anthropic, in an interview with the Stanford Graduate School of Business in May. “But the ability to be curious, learn across a lot of disciplines, and have a strong foundation of wanting to have impact—regardless of the area you’re working in—is an underrated quality.” At 38, Amodei—who co-founded Anthropic in 2021 with six former OpenAI employees—has become one of the most powerful women in AI and the second-richest self-made woman in America. After the company’s $65 billion funding round at a $965 billion valuation, she is now worth an estimated $15.5 billion, up nearly 13-fold from $1.2 billion a year ago. #Forbes
