WASHINGTON (AA) - President Donald Trump directed all federal agencies on Friday to immediately cease using technology developed by Anthropic, accusing the artificial intelligence firm of attempting to “strong-arm” the US military and jeopardizing national security.
"The United States of America will never allow a radical left, woke company to dictate how our great military fights and wins wars!" Trump said on his Truth Social platform, adding that the decisions rest with the commander-in-chief and Pentagon leadership.
The president claimed Anthropic made a “disastrous mistake” by allegedly trying to force the Defense Department to comply with its terms of service rather than US law.
He argued that the company’s actions were “putting American lives at risk” and placing troops and national security in jeopardy.
