Appeals Court Upholds Designation of Anthropic as Supply Chain Risk
What happened
A federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., supported the Trump administration’s efforts to designate Anthropic as a 'supply chain risk.' The 2-1 decision defended the Department of War’s actions, stating that any partnership between Anthropic and the federal government was a 'statutorily covered national security risk.' Anthropic stated it was considering all options, including further review.

The DoW and Anthropic had teamed up in July of last year on a $200 million deal to prototype frontier AI capabilities for U.S. national security. The company could request a rehearing from the same panel of judges or take its case to the Supreme Court.
