Following President Trump's directive, the US Treasury Department and the Federal Housing Finance Agency have ceased using Anthropic's AI technology. This action stems from a dispute over Anthropic's refusal to permit its AI for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons. The Pentagon also flagged the company as a national security risk, impacting defense contractors.
