You're smoking something funny. They have just shown they are willing to designate a US company as essentially a foreign spy agency because they wanted to try and renegotiate a contract and didn't get what they wanted and that's your reaction?

>>>> willing to designate a US company as essentially a foreign spy agency

Can you quote where I said that ?

I took that to mean that you support the Pentagon's threat which essentially IS to label Anthropic as a national security threat, simply because they wouldn't give the Pentagon the right to use Anthropic's AI to operate weapons or spy on American citizens.

Big fish tries to use their might to kill off small fish .

Anthropic uses big $$ it to become big fish in the AI pond.

Anthropic just found there are bigger fish in their pond.

I'm glad Anthropic have been reminded of this. THat doesn't mean I endorse the US govt using law to make companies a "national security threat" , although its an extremelt easy path from: monopolistic to -> active "national security threat".

Govt can, and in fact, has a mandate to, go after businesses when those businesses threaten a functioning market. Threatening is certainly part of that arsenal.

That's what anticompetitive rules are all about.

You are deliberately or accidentally confusing a lot of things here. This is not some anti-monopoly maneuver by the... DEPARTMENT OF WAR.

can you quote where they claimed the above was your statement?

You are correct, but I can't change my comment now.

I stand corrected
