Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI model, is locked in a very public showdown with the U.S. Department of Defense. The whole fight centers on whether Anthropic’s AI should be used in military operations—and under what conditions. The Pentagon wants full access. They’re pushing Anthropic to let their AI systems run for any legal military purpose, even in situations where the company’s usual safety rules wouldn’t apply. Dario Amodei, Anthropic’s CEO, didn’t hold back. He said the company “cannot in good conscience accede” to those demands. For him, the problem’s clear: agreeing would mean opening the door to things like mass surveillance of Americans or letting weapons pick targets without a human in the loop. Anthropic sees that as both unethical and dangerous. This kind of public pushback is rare. Most defense contractors just go along with the Pentagon or work things out quietly. Anthropic, though, is taking its stand out in the open, dragging the whole debate into the public eye and the headlines." #Write2Earn #AnthropicUSGovClash #TrumpStateoftheUnion
