Court Overturns Pentagon's AI Vendor Ban as Unlawful Retaliation
A federal judge in California vacated the Defense Department's designation of Anthropic as a national security supply-chain risk, calling the action illegal and baseless. The ruling also lifted related sanctions imposed by nine agencies, though it does not force the Pentagon to use Anthropic's models. The dispute originated from a $200 million contract involving Claude AI and a military operation in Venezuela.
