US court maintains Anthropic exclusion
The U.S. Court of Appeals upheld the Department of Defense's decision to cancel Anthropic's participation in the Pentagon's supply chain, due to its refusal to remove restrictions on the "Claude" AI model used in sensitive and classified systems, including the January detention operations of Nicolás Maduro. The decision came after a dispute that began in February when the company refused to comply with government requests to restrict the technology's use in autonomous weapons and mass surveillance. Following its classification as a threat, the department canceled contracts and banned other companies from using Anthropic's technology, after it was rejected by the White House, despite the company's proximity to a major IPO valued at up to one trillion dollars, and cautious warnings about AI risks, which Trump dismissed as a “hoax.”
