The Trump administration has banned federal agencies from using Anthropic's AI and designated the firm a 'supply-chain risk' after it refused to remove safety guardrails on autonomous weapons and domestic surveillance. This unprecedented move against a domestic AI leader threatens to bar any defense contractor from partnering with Anthropic, potentially reshaping the competitive landscape of the US AI industry.
