Anthropic CEO says he’s sticking to AI “red lines” despite clash with Pentagon
Anthropic CEO says he will maintain AI “red lines” despite tensions with the Pentagon over military use. He argues the company must stand up for American values and safety, resisting involvement in potentially harmful or weaponized applications.

The CEO indicated a commitment to ethical guidelines and governance in AI development, even as users and policymakers press for broader access and capabilities. He emphasized cautious collaboration and clear boundaries to avoid enabling harmful outcomes.

The remarks come as AI developers face increasing scrutiny over military and defense partnerships, with debates centering on safety, accountability, and the appropriate scope of AI deployment in national security contexts.
