Google deepens Pentagon AI push after Anthropic sues Trump administration

Google is expanding its AI partnership with the Pentagon by introducing a tool called Agent Designer that lets military and civilian workers create custom AI agents (automated digital assistants) for routine administrative tasks on the Pentagon's enterprise AI system. This move comes after Anthropic sued the Trump administration for being designated a supply chain risk (a classification historically reserved for foreign adversaries) over its refusal to allow its AI technology to be used for autonomous weapons or domestic surveillance.
