What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

The Pentagon initially blacklisted Anthropic after the company refused to remove safeguards on its Claude model, specifically regarding fully autonomous lethal weapons and mass domestic surveillance. A US court ruled that the Pentagon's blacklist was illegal retaliation and ordered federal agencies to resume using Anthropic's technology. However, a US appeals court later upheld the Pentagon’s decision to exclude Anthropic from its supply chain.
