| I don't understand how to square your story about what motivated the government against what actually happened. This is the statement that the President of the United States made when announcing that Anthropic would be cut off: > THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL NEVER ALLOW
A RADICAL LEFT, WOKE COMPANY TO DICTATE HOW
OUR GREAT MILITARY FIGHTS AND WINS WARS! That
decision belongs to YOUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF and the
tremendous leaders I appoint to run our Military.
The Leftwing nut jobs at Anthropic have made a DISASTROUS
MISTAKE trying to STRONG-ARM the Department of War, and
force them to obey their Terms of Service instead of our
Constitution. Their selfishness is putting AMERICAN LIVES at
risk, our Troops in danger, and our National Security in
JEOPARDY. > Therefore, I am directing EVERY Federal Agency in the United
States Government to IMMEDIATELY CEASE all use of
Anthropic’s technology. We don’t need it, we don’t want it, and
will not do business with them again! There will be a Six Month
phase out period for Agencies like the Department of War who are
using Anthropic’s products, at various levels. Anthropic better get
their act together, and be helpful during this phase out period, or I
will use the Full Power of the Presidency to make them comply, with
major civil and criminal consequences to follow. > WE will decide the fate of our Country — NOT some out-of-control,
Radical Left AI company run by people who have no idea what the
real World is all about. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! Perhaps you've not seen this statement before; there are a number of people who find it inconvenient that US policy is driven by insane social media rants, and prefer to make up more sensible rationales for the same policies. But there's no part of the actual published announcement that discusses the relationship between Palantir and Anthropic. |
