Anthropic excluded from Pentagon AI deal
These tech giants will help upgrade military systems in highly classified environments (think: Impact Levels 6 and 7).
Google has even landed a contract for secret projects.
Meanwhile, over 1.3 million Defense Department staff are already using the Pentagon's GenAI.mil platform, a sign of just how much AI is becoming part of daily military life.
The Defense Department's chief technology officer flagged Anthropic as a supply-chain risk, which played a big role in leaving them out for now.
