Trump Orders Federal Agencies to Cease Use of Anthropic's AI Over National Security Concerns

DEFENSE

President Trump has directed all U.S. federal agencies to stop using AI technology from Anthropic, citing national security risks due to the company's refusal to allow its AI models to be used for fully autonomous weapons and domestic surveillance. The Pentagon designated Anthropic a supply chain risk after unsuccessful negotiations over the company's restrictions.

In contrast, OpenAI announced a deal with the Defense Department that aligns with its ethical guidelines. The situation raises concerns about the impact on the tech industry and future federal contracts.
