"textContent": "The Pentagon has formally designated Anthropic as a \"supply chain risk,\" ordering federal agencies and defense contractors to stop using its AI tools after the company sought limits on the military's use of its models. In a written statement, the department said it has \"officially informed Anthropic leadership the company and its products are deemed a supply chain risk, effective immediately.\" Politico reports: The designation, historically reserved for foreign firms with ties to U.S. adversaries, will likely require companies that do business with the U.S. military -- or even the federal government in general -- to cut ties with Anthropic. \"From the very beginning, this has been about one fundamental principle: the military being able to use technology for all lawful purposes,\" the Pentagon said in the statement. \"The military will not allow a vendor to insert itself into the chain of command by restricting the lawful use of a critical capability and put our warfighters at risk.\" A spokesperson for Anthropic did not immediately respond to a request for comment. But the company said last week it would fight a supply-chain risk label in court.\n\n \n\nRead more of this story at Slashdot.",
