The Pentagon filed a rebuttal to Anthropic’s lawsuit.

Anthropic filed a lawsuit earlier this month over its “supply chain risk” designation, but the Department of Defense held firm in a new court filing, alleging that the company could ostensibly “attempt to disable its technology or preemptively alter the behavior of its model either before or during ongoing warfighting operations” in the event it felt its red lines were “being crossed.” The filing added that the Pentagon “deemed that an unacceptable risk to national security.”
