It has previously vowed to sue if the Pentagon pursued what the company described as a \u201clegally unsound\u201d action \u201cnever before publicly applied to an American company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pentagon statement said \u201cthis has been about one fundamental principle: the military being able to use technology for all lawful purposes. The military will not allow a vendor to insert itself into the chain of command by restricting the lawful use of a critical capability and put our warfighters at risk.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some military contractors were already cutting ties with Anthropic, a rising star in the tech industry that sells Claude to a variety of businesses and government agencies. Lockheed Martin said it will \u201cfollow the President\u2019s and the Department of War\u2019s direction\u201d and look to other providers of large language models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe expect minimal impacts as Lockheed Martin is not dependent on any single LLM vendor for any portion of our work,\u201d the company said. It\u2019s not yet clear if the designation aims to block Anthropic\u2019s use by all federal government contractors or just those that partner with the military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pentagon\u2019s decision to apply a rule designed to address supply threats posed by foreign adversaries was quickly met with criticism from both opponents and some supporters of Trump\u2019s Republican administration. Federal codes have defined supply chain risk as a \u201crisk that an adversary may sabotage, maliciously introduce unwanted function, or otherwise subvert\u201d a system in order to disrupt, degrade or spy on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, a New York Democrat and member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and Senate Intelligence Committee, called it \u201ca dangerous misuse of a tool meant to address adversary-controlled technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis reckless action is shortsighted, self-destructive, and a gift to our adversaries,\u201d she said in a written statement Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neil Chilson, a Republican former chief technologist for the Federal Trade Commission who now leads AI policy at the Abundance Institute, said the decision looks like \u201cmassive overreach that would hurt both the U.S. AI sector and the military\u2019s ability to acquire the best technology for the U.S. warfighter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier in the day, a group of former defense and national security officials sent a letter to U.S. lawmakers expressing \u201cserious concern\u201d about the designation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe use of this authority against a domestic American company is a profound departure from its intended purpose and sets a dangerous precedent,\u201d said the letter from former officials and policy experts, including former CIA director Michael Hayden and retired Air Force, Army and Navy leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They added that such a designation is meant to \u201cprotect the United States from infiltration by foreign adversaries \u2014 from companies beholden to Beijing or Moscow, not from American innovators operating transparently under the rule of law. Applying this tool to penalize a U.S. firm for declining to remove safeguards against mass domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons is a category error with consequences that extend far beyond this dispute.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While losing its big partnerships with defense contractors, Anthropic experienced a surge of consumer downloads over the past week due to people siding with its moral stance. Anthropic has boasted of more than a million people signing up for Claude each day this week, lifting it past OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Google\u2019s Gemini as the top AI app in more than 20 countries in Apple\u2019s app store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dispute with the Pentagon has also further deepened Anthropic\u2019s bitter rivalry with OpenAI, which announced a Friday deal with the Pentagon to effectively replace Anthropic with ChatGPT in classified military environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI said it sought similar protections against domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons but later had to amend its agreements, leading CEO Sam Altman to say he shouldn\u2019t have rushed a deal that \u201clooked opportunistic and sloppy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Trump administration is following through with its threat to designate the AI company as a supply chain
