Trump says Anthropic is ‘shaping up,’ open to deal with Pentagon

US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday Anthropic was “shaping up” in the eyes of his administration, opening the door for the AI company to reverse its blacklisting at the Pentagon. Trump directed the government in February to stop working with Anthropic.

The Pentagon followed up by declaring the firm a supply-chain risk, dealing ‌a major ⁠blow to ⁠the artificial intelligence lab after a showdown over guardrails for how the military could use its ​AI tools.
