Trump and Pentagon clash with AI company Anthropic over military use

President Donald Trump issued a directive to federal agencies, criticizing the AI company Anthropic as a 'radical left, woke company' and ordering a halt to its use. The Pentagon separately labeled Anthropic a 'supply chain risk' and raised doubts about its AI business, particularly regarding military applications.

Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, pushed back against both Trump and the Pentagon. He stated the company would not accept certain demands from the military, calling them a 'red line,' and asserted that intimidation would not change the company's position.
