OpenAI Aligns With Anthropic Over Pentagon AI Rules, Seeks Classified Deal
OpenAI says it shares Anthropic's red lines for Pentagon use of AI—no mass surveillance or autonomous weapons and humans in the loop—while pursuing a deal to run ChatGPT in classified military environments under guardrails such as cloud-only confinement, ongoing security monitoring, and clearance-backed oversight. The stance signals a rare, industry-wide push on governance amid the Pentagon–Anthropic clash and could shift leverage toward OpenAI if it secures the contract; there is visible solidarity from OpenAI and Google staff with Anthropic’s stance.
