Anthropic Sues US Government Over Supply Chain Risk Label

Anthropic Sues US for Being Labeled Supply Chain Risk

Anthropic PBC sued the Defense Department for declaring that the artificial intelligence giant posed a risk to the US supply chain, further ramping up a high-stakes dispute with the Pentagon over safeguards on the company’s technology.

San Francisco-based Anthropic is challenging a decision by the department and other federal agencies to shift their AI work to other providers, based on a risk designation typically reserved for companies from countries the US views as adversaries.
