Anthropic-Palantir Partnership at Risk After Pentagon Decision — The Information https://www.theinformation.com/articles/anthropic-palantir-partnership-risk-pentagon-ruling
NEW: After the Pentagon threatened to designate Anthropic a “supply chain risk,” Anthropic’s relationship with government contractor Palantir may be at risk. Palantir could stop using Anthropic for federal work, which makes up ~42% of Palantir’s $4.5B in revenue last year.”” https://x.com/srimuppidi/status/2028943303581024412

One legal point: The DoW “”supply chain risk”” designation applies to DoW *contracts,* not generally. DoW can tell suppliers “”don’t use Anthropic when performing DoW contracts.”” But DoW can’t, legally, tell its contractors “”don’t use Anthropic even in your private contracts.”””” https://x.com/petereharrell/status/2027517998555160645

Sorry if this is woke or whatever but it is FUCKING INSANE that the DoD is explicitly, publicly trying to create an AI powered mass surveillance program of American citizens, attempting to destroy a company for refusing to comply with that directive, and *bragging about doing so*”” https://x.com/quantian1/status/2027537341410160917

The amendment for the DoW-OAI deal may help, but I think it still fails to address key problems. The core surveillance prohibition is limited to “”intentional””/””deliberate”” surveillance. If the DoW says the use is incidental, it’s seemingly permitted, regardless of scale. 🧵”” https://x.com/justanotherlaw/status/2028673906870223286

Until a full account of the Anthropic-DoW negotiations eventually comes out in testimony under oath, it’s hard to know for sure how to interpret it.
