    Just like all #rapists, #Trump really doesn’t like being told no.

    Trump says he is directing federal agencies to cease use of #Anthropic #technology in a petty whiny social media post.

    @Nonilex strange how quickly one can become "radical left, woke" these days. In one day; out the next. It's almost as if the term means nothing but "fascists don't like this."

          Trump's decision stopped short of #threats issued by #Hegseth & the #Pentagon, including that it could invoke the Defense Production Act to require Anthropic's compliance. The Pentagon had also said it considered designating #Anthropic a #SupplyChain risk, a step previously only used against businesses tied to foreign adversaries.

          But #Trump vowed further action if Anthropic did not cooperate with the phaseout.

          The setback comes as #AI leader #Anthropic raced to sell novel #technology to #business & #government, particularly for #NationalSecurity, ahead of its widely expected #IPO.

          At the same time, the battle over #tech #guardrails had raised concerns that the #DoD would follow #US #law [certainly not this one] but little other constraint when deploying AI for national-security missions, regardless of #safety or #ethics service terms embraced by the technology's developers.

            #Anthropic had sought guarantees that its #AI would not be used for fully #AutonomousWeapons or for mass #domestic #surveillance - applications in which the #Pentagon claimed it had no interest [wink wink nudge nudge].

              Who knew that a single software vendor not named Elon Musk could "decide the fate of our Country." Trump's Pentagon should work on multiple sourcing for all key products.

              Btw, pretty sure there isn't a "Radical Left" vendor of any products for the Pentagon.

                  If the Nazis could, they would take over #anthropic.
                  But AI is an airplane constructed in flight, removing engineers, will lead to predictable results.

                      The #Pentagon & Anthropic are at odds over restrictions the company places on the use of #Claude, the first #AI system to be used in the #military #classified network.

                                  #Anthropic said it would fight the blacklisting in court. In a blog post late Friday, the company said that it believed the wide-reaching ban #Hegseth described was not permitted by federal #law & that the designation of the company as a #SupplyChainRisk was “legally unsound.”

                                    The company wrote that, “Designating #Anthropic as a supply chain risk would be an unprecedented action—one historically reserved for US adversaries, never before publicly applied to an American company.” The unsigned blog post added: “We are deeply saddened by these developments.”

                                      …The #SupplyChainRisk designation issued by #Hegseth late Friday was an extraordinary escalation, ranking a leading #US #AI company alongside the likes of Chinese & Russian firms seen as a danger to the #UnitedStates.
                                      
It was unclear how easy it would be for government departments to move away from #Anthropic’s #technology, or for the company’s partners that do business with the #Pentagon to cut ties.

                                        He’s totally Veruca Salt!!!! If only we could turn him into a blueberry like Wonka did. Though an orange would be more apt.

                                        @Nonilex @paul_ipv6 Erm, the blueberry was Violet Beauregard’s fate; Veruca dropped through the bad egg shaft (Gene Wilder version)

                                          @Nonilex it certainly sounds libelous
