Summary

OpenAI secured a deal with the U.S. Department of Defense after the Trump administration forced federal agencies to stop using Anthropic's AI technology, citing disagreements over how the Pentagon wanted to use the artificial intelligence startup's systems. OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman stated that his company shares the same ethical boundaries (called guardrails, which are safety limits built into AI systems) as Anthropic regarding how the technology should be used.
