Anthropic Seeks Rehearing in Appeals Court Over Pentagon's National Security Risk Designation

AI company Anthropic has asked a U.S. appeals court to reconsider a ruling that upheld the Pentagon's decision to label the company as a national security supply chain risk. The dispute centers on safety guardrails on Anthropic's technology, which the Pentagon argued could compromise military operations. Anthropic contends that the court's majority misinterpreted federal law and that the designation was retaliation for its views on AI safety.
