US President Donald Trump on Friday announced that he had directed all federal departments to discontinue their use of Anthropic’s technology, citing the company’s visible clash with the Pentagon over

\n\n

artificial intelligence (AI) safety standards.

In a post shared on Truth Social, Trump stated, “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!”

\n\n

The US President indicated that while most federal agencies must halt their use of Anthropic’s AI immediately, the Pentagon would be granted a six-month window to remove the technology already integrated into military systems.

Amodei Refuses To Remove AI Safeguards

A day earlier, Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei said the company would refuse Pentagon requests to loosen safety restrictions on its Claude AI model. He maintained that applications such as widespread domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons fall outside acceptable ethical and technical limits.

“We cannot in good conscience accede to their request,” Amodei said, adding that although Anthropic favors using AI to enhance US national security, present-day systems are “simply not reliable enough” to remove human oversight from targeting decisions.

\n\n

Trump described his order as both a national security measure and an assertion of presidential authority.

“The United States of America will never allow a radical left, woke company to dictate how our great military fights and wins wars!” he wrote. “That decision belongs to your Commander-in-Chief, and the tremendous leaders I appoint to run our military,” he added.

Trump Warns Anthropic Of Civil, Criminal Consequences

The Republican leader further alleged that Anthropic had sought to pressure the Department of War, saying, “The company’s actions were putting American lives at risk, our Troops in danger, and our National Security in jeopardy.” He warned that the AI company “better get their act together” during the phase-out period or face major “civil and criminal consequences.”

\n\n

The order comes amid ongoing friction between the Pentagon and the AI developer over the boundaries of artificial intelligence in military contexts. The administration has not provided additional specifics about the dispute.
