The standoff between Anthropic and the US government is expected to come to a head on Tuesday, when the artificial intelligence company will argue its case for a preliminary injunction against the Department of War and the White House in federal court.
The move comes after US President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth publicly declared in February that it was cutting ties with the artificial intelligence (AI) company after it refused to allow unrestricted military use of its Claude AI model. The restrictions in dispute include the use of lethal autonomous weapons without human oversight and mass surveillance of Americans.
