Clara Nunes

Senior Vice President, Global Affairs & Policy

“Build with society, not above it.”

Clara Nunes leads BestSoft AI’s global affairs, public policy and government engagement work.

Her team works with policymakers, regulators, researchers and civil-society organisations on the governance questions emerging around increasingly capable AI systems. Clara’s role is not simply to explain BestSoft’s research externally, but to translate between people who often approach the technology with very different assumptions, incentives and vocabularies.

She is precise, diplomatic and exceptionally difficult to push into saying more than she intended. Internally, she is valued for identifying the second- and third-order consequences of decisions long before they become public-policy problems.

Clara works closely with both the research and safety organisations, particularly where technical capabilities begin to raise questions that cannot be answered by engineering alone.
