Appeals Court Upholds Pentagon Decision Amid National Security Concerns
A federal appeals court has ruled in favor of the Pentagon’s decision to label Anthropic, an artificial intelligence lab, as a supply chain risk. The ruling allows the Pentagon to continue removing Anthropic’s products from its systems and prohibits contractors from using the company’s products in their work for the department. The decision is separate from a previous ruling in California, which found the Pentagon acted illegally in punishing Anthropic for its criticism of the Pentagon’s views on AI use. The case was reported by the Associated Press.
