Summary
Anthropic, an AI startup, is refusing to let the U.S. Defense Department use its AI models without restrictions on fully autonomous weapons (weapons that make decisions without human control) and mass domestic surveillance. The Pentagon wants unlimited use of Anthropic's models and set a deadline for the company to agree, threatening to label them a supply chain risk (a company whose failure could disrupt critical systems) if they don't comply.
