Anthropic sues to block Pentagon blacklisting over AI use restrictions | Reuters
The Pentagon said it wouldn't comment on litigation. Last week, a Pentagon official said the two sides were no longer in active talks. The designation poses a big threat to Anthropic’s business with the government, and the outcome could shape how other AI companies negotiate restrictions on military use of their technology, though Amodei clarified on Thursday that the designation had "a narrow scope" and businesses could still use its tools in projects unrelated to the Pentagon.

US judge says Pentagon's blacklisting of Anthropic looks like punishment for its views on AI safety | Reuters
Anthropic's designation was the first time a U.S. company has been publicly designated a supply-chain risk under an obscure government-procurement statute aimed at protecting military systems from foreign sabotage.

The company said it was not given a chance to dispute the designation, in violation of its Fifth Amendment right to due process. During Tuesday's hearing, a lawyer for Anthropic said the Pentagon was using a flawed interpretation of federal procurement law to retaliate against Anthropic for its negotiating position.
