The Pentagon has officially identified the AI company, Anthropic, as a national security risk due to its refusal to eliminate safeguards limiting its technology's military applications.
The Pentagon has taken significant action against the artificial intelligence firm, Anthropic, designating it as a 'supply-chain risk to national security.' This move comes after directives from former President Donald Trump to blacklist the company from federal government contracts. The Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, criticized Anthropic for imposing ideological constraints that limit the usage of its AI systems in military operations, particularly by protecting against mass surveillance and the deployment of fully autonomous weapons.
