Powerful words from Dean Ball, former White House AI adviser. “That alone should make one thing clear: terms like this are not some ridiculous violation of the norms of defense contracting. Anyone attempting to convince you otherwise is misinformed or lying.”

The Anthropic-DOD skirmish is the first major public debate on control over frontier AI, and institutions behaved erratically, maliciously, and without clarity

On Anthropic and the Department of War  —  I.  —  A little more than a decade ago, I sat with my father and watched him die.

I think this is the clearest eyed take I've read about what's happened between the AI industry and the Pentagon in the last 72 hours, with a chilling warning at the end. “The biggest losers in all of this are everyday people and civilians in conflict zones.”

Frontier AI labs' military usage policies for their AI tools are incoherent, vague, and often change, which allows company leadership to preserve “optionality”

I led the Geopolitics Team at OpenAI for approximately three years and then joined two other teams before deciding to leave in June 2025.

Besides the fact that Emil deleted a version of this tweet criticizing Anthropic for training AI on copyrighted works, I am fascinated to learn the other ways the DoW uses AI to analyze social media posts. This also doesn't specifically refute the Atlantic's report?

The Atlantic reports that the Pentagon wanted to use Anthropic's AI for some type of surveillance of Americans. Given the ways some companies are already using AI today to surveil their own employees's emails, chats, etc., I find this kind of use to be particularly disturbing [image]

OpenAI says its DOD agreement upholds its redlines and “has more guardrails than any previous agreement for classified AI deployments, including Anthropic's”

We think our agreement has more guardrails than any previous agreement for classified AI deployments, including Anthropic's.
