00:02Anthropic filed a lawsuit Monday against the Trump administration after the government
00:07designated the AI company as supply chain security risk and moved to cancel federal
00:11contracts, according to the Wall Street Journal. The complaint argues the administration exceeded
00:16its authority and retaliated after Anthropic pushed for limits on Pentagon use of its AI tools,
00:22including restrictions on mass domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons.
00:26Thirty-seven researchers from OpenAI and Google filed a brief supporting Anthropic and warned
00:31that the action could harm U.S. competitiveness in artificial intelligence. Defense Secretary
00:37Pete Hegseth and administration officials said Anthropic's refusal to allow the Pentagon to
00:42use its AI tools in all lawful scenarios creates a security risk because the company could control
00:47or restrict how the military uses the technology. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
