I read both the Pentagon and Anthropic statements. Basically, the Pentagon wants AI for all lawful use, while Anthropic wants specific guardrails against domestic surveillance and pure AI killchains.
This is fascinating as, AFAIK, it's the 1st instance of a major private company standing up against this administration. Good on them.
Anthropic is likely to remain the leading AI company when it comes to the safety and social responsibility of its models. Despite all the potential repercussions, it has turned down the Pentagon's request to remove the guardrails against military use and surveillance inherent to its Claude AI agent.
