Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei calls OpenAI’s messaging around military deal ‘straight up lies,’ report says

Anthropic's CEO criticized OpenAI for accepting a Department of Defense contract, claiming OpenAI falsely promised safeguards against misuse like domestic mass surveillance and autonomous weapons that Anthropic had insisted on. The dispute centers on OpenAI's contract language allowing AI use for 'all lawful purposes,' which critics argue provides insufficient protection since laws can change over time.
