The Pentagon has formally notified AI company Anthropic that it is deemed a “supply chain risk,” a rare designation that critics say is typically aimed at adversary-linked technology. The move follows a breakdown in negotiations over whether the U.S. military can use Anthropic’s Claude models for all lawful purposes, versus contractual limits the company says are needed to prevent fully autonomous weapons and mass domestic surveillance.
