Federal Judge Blocks Pentagon's Risk Assessment of Anthropic in Contract Dispute

A federal judge has issued an order preventing the Pentagon from categorizing Anthropic as a supply chain risk in relation to a two-year, $200 million contract. According to NS3.AI, the order is temporarily stayed for seven days, with a compliance report due by April 6. The legal case emerged after Anthropic declined to lift restrictions on mass surveillance of Americans and the use of lethal autonomous warfare.
