Here you go:
The Pentagon wanted Claude for mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. Anthropic said no. Trump said fire them like dogs. Then it got weird.
This week we're unpacking the biggest AI story of the year — the full-blown collision between the US government and the company that dared to build ethics into its AI model. We recap how Anthropic's constitutional AI framework put it on a collision course with the Department of Defence, what happened when the February 27th deadline passed, and why a label previously reserved for Chinese adversaries like Huawei is now being pointed at an American company.
We get into the leaked memo ordering military commanders to rip Anthropic's technology out of nuclear and cyber systems in 180 days — despite Claude reportedly being actively embedded in military operations right now. We look at the First Amendment lawsuit Anthropic has fired back with, OpenAI's eyebrow-raising decision to step in and take the contract, and the $25 million donation that might explain a thing or two.
And then we bring it back down to earth. Because underneath all the geopolitics, something genuinely exciting is happening with these tools — and if you wrote AI off six months ago, it's time to look again.
The government said no. The computer said no. The question is — what do you say?
