Maxkamad: Cunaqabateynta Anthropic ee Pentagon-ka waxay ahayd mid ka soo horjeeda dastuurka
Garsoore ayaa go'aamiyay in cunaqabateynta Anthropic ee Waaxda Difaaca Maraykanka ay ahayd mid aan dastuuri ahayn. Tallaabadii waxaa loo arkay in ay ahayd aargudasho sharci-darro ah oo xannibaysa Xeerbeegtida Koowaad, ayadoo shirkadu diiday in AI-geedu u adeegsado dhexroor ama hub dilaa'aya.
Go'aanka Maxkamadda iyo Sababta
Garsoore Rita F. Lin, oo ah garsoore degmo ee waqooyiga California, ayaa qoray: "The empty invocation of national security is not a blank check to punish and retaliate against government critics." Go'aanku wuxuu caddeeyay in ficillada Pentagon-ka ay ahaayeen kuwo xad-gudbay Xeerbeegtida Koowaad.
Wasiiradda Difaaca Pete Hegseth ayaa Anthropic u aqoonsatay khatar silsiladda sahayda. Garsooraha Lin wuxuu xusay in tallaabadii ay ahayd mid aan sal iyo sal ahayn, isagoo raaciyay: "Punishing Anthropic for bringing public scrutiny to the government's contracting position is classic illegal First Amendment retaliation.".
Diidmada Shirkadda iyo Culayskii
Jiilaalkii la soo dhaafay, Hegseth wuxuu dib u gorgortan ku sameeyay qandaraasyada AI-yada si loogu oggolaado "any lawful use". Inta badan shirkadaha ayaa saxixtay, laakiin Anthropic waxay diiday kormarad bulsho iyo hub dilaa'aya. CEO Dario Amodei ayaa sheegay inaysan beddeli doonin.
Wax ka yar 24 saacadood ka hor inta aan ultimatum la soo saarin, Amodei wuxuu qoray in shirkaddu aysan diidanayn hawlgallo gaar ah. Kadib, Anthropic waxaa loo magac daray "supply chain risk" oo ay sida caadiga ah u dhigaan khatarta nabadgelyo qaran.
Dacwaddii iyo Jawaabtii
Bishii March, Garsoore Lin wuxuu si ku meel gaar ah u joojiyay cunaqabateynta. Wuxuu qoray: "The Department of War's records show that it designated Anthropic as a supply chain risk because of its 'hostile manner through the press'." Pentagon-ka wuxuu heshiisyo la galay toddoba AI oo kale.
Hadiiqda Danielle Ghiglieri ayaa Thursday sheegtay: "We welcome the court's ruling that this supply chain risk designation was unlawful. We remain focused on working productively with the government to harness AI for our national security so all Americans benefit from this technology.".
A federal judge in California has declared the Trump administration's decision to blacklist Anthropic illegal, calling it unlawful retaliation in violation of the First Amendment after the AI lab refused to allow its technology to be used for mass surveillance or lethal autonomous weapons.
The Ruling and the Legal Basis
On Thursday, Judge Rita F. Lin of the Northern District of California ruled that the Pentagon's blacklisting of Anthropic was arbitrary and capricious, stating that the empty invocation of national security is not a blank check to punish and retaliate against government critics. The judge found that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's decision to designate Anthropic a supply chain risk was unlawful retaliation in violation of the First Amendment.
The court's decision came after months of legal proceedings initiated by Anthropic, which argued that the government's actions were baseless and driven by political pressure rather than legitimate national security concerns. Judge Lin emphasized that while the Department of War is free to select its preferred AI vendor, the broad measures imposed on Anthropic were illegal and lacked proper justification.
Anthropic's Stance and the Pentagon's Response
Anthropic had set two firm restrictions on its AI technology, refusing to allow it to be used for mass surveillance of Americans or for lethal autonomous weapons. CEO Dario Amodei stated that the company would not change its stance, noting that AI can undermine democratic values in certain cases. This refusal led to intense pressure from the Pentagon, which sought to renegotiate all AI lab contracts to allow use for any lawful purpose.
In response to Anthropic's resistance, the Pentagon moved to replace its influence by signing deals with seven other AI labs, including Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, and SpaceX. Anthropic spokesperson Danielle Ghiglieri welcomed the court's ruling, saying the company remains focused on working productively with the government to harness AI for national security so all Americans benefit from this technology.
The Path to the Courtroom
The conflict escalated when Anthropic was named a supply chain risk due to its hostile manner through the press, according to Department of War records. In March, Judge Lin temporarily blocked the Pentagon's blacklist, writing that punishing Anthropic for bringing public scrutiny to the government's contracting position was classic illegal First Amendment retaliation.
Anthropic filed its lawsuit in March, accusing the Trump administration of unlawfully retaliating against it for setting red lines on military use cases. The company's legal team argued that the designation was a direct response to Anthropic's public criticism of the Pentagon's contracting position, marking a significant moment in the ongoing debate over AI ethics and government accountability.
