ANTHROPIC SUES PENTAGON OVER ‘SUPPLY CHAIN RISK' LABEL

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Anthropic has filed two lawsuits against the Department of War to change the Pentagon's decision to label it a 'supply chain risk'. One of the lawsuits is in the US District court in the Northern District of California, and the other is in the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The supply chain risk designation is typically applied to firms that are deemed a major national security risk and has never been used on an American company. Anthropic has offered to continue negotiating with the Pentagon and also offered to help move the Pentagon off its technology and onto another AI system. OpenAI and xAI have signed agreements to provide technology on the Department of War's classified systems in recent weeks.
