\u201cThese agreements accelerate the transformation towards establishing the United States military as an AI-first fighting force and will strengthen our warfighters\u2019 ability to maintain decision superiority across all domains of warfare,\u201d the Department of Defence said on Friday.<\/p>\n
The companies will deploy their AI technology<\/a> on the department\u2019s \u201cclassified networks\u201d for \u201clawful operational use\u201d, according to the agency.The agreements underscore how tech companies are expanding their work with the US military even as some workers raise concerns about the use of AI for autonomous weapons and mass surveillance. Anthropic<\/a>, the San Francisco company behind the chatbot Claude, clashed with the Pentagon earlier this year over whether there were adequate safeguards around the military\u2019s use of its technology.<\/p>\n The Department of Defence accused Anthropic of trying to \u201cseize veto power\u201d over military decisions, though the company pushed back against that characterisation. The agency labelled Anthropic a supply chain risk, and the Trump administration directed federal agencies to stop using the company\u2019s tools, setting off a legal battle over that designation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cThese agreements accelerate the transformation towards establishing the United States military as an AI-first fighting force and will…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":421296,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[345,7182,1463,121818,133,42,134,43,4136,1748,9126,9631,46884,4688,38484,40,38,41,39,1032,48717],"class_list":["post-421295","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-ai","tag-amazon-web-services","tag-anthropic","tag-department-of-defence","tag-google","tag-headlines","tag-microsoft","tag-news","tag-nvidia","tag-openai","tag-oracle","tag-pentagon","tag-reflection","tag-spacex","tag-sundar-pichai","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories","tag-united-states","tag-us-military"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421295","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=421295"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421295\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/421296"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=421295"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=421295"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=421295"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
