Anthropic may keep supplying Claude to the NSA despite being flagged as a supply chain risk by the Pentagon

Anthropic is likely to continue supplying AI models to the NSA, despite being labeled a supply chain risk. Intelligence agencies are lacking Nvidia's latest Grace Blackwell chips, and Anthropic's Mythos model reportedly operates on older hardware. The controversial 'any lawful use' clause that previously derailed negotiations is not part of the current deal, facilitating ongoing collaboration between Anthropic and the NSA. This development comes as agencies face shortages of advanced technology needed for their operations.
