Artificial intelligence company Anthropic has sued the Trump administration with two lawsuits on Monday, challenging both a Pentagon decision to label Anthropic a "supply chain risk" and a broader federal push to stop agencies from using its Claude chatbot.
According to reporting from Reuters, Anthropic argues the core demand from the government was that the company accept the military's ability to use Claude for "any lawful use," a phrase Anthropic says was too broad because it would remove the company's existing safeguards against two specific uses: mass domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons.
