On Friday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth¹ lashed out at the AI company Anthropic for daring to enforce its terms of service.
“Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal,” he snorted in a 300-word tweet, accusing the company of attempting to “seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military.”
Thoughts and prayers for the poor aide tasked with wiping down the spittle-flecked mirror after Hegseth finished drafting this clunker.
“I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security,” he fulminated, effectively slapping an “NSFW” on the company, at the very moment he was relying on its AI Claude to navigate the invasion of Iran.
“Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service,” he conceded, even as he bellowed that “America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech.”
