I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

The Pentagon just blacklisted one of America’s most valuable AI companies.

For refusing to build surveillance tools aimed at American citizens.

Hours later, its biggest rival OpenAI quietly signed the deal of the decade.

Here’s what just happened and why it changes everything.

This week, the US Department of War gave Anthropic an ultimatum.

Drop your safety restrictions and let us use your AI for anything we want.

The deadline was 5:01 PM today and Anthropic said no.

Their CEO, Dario Amodei, drew two red lines.

No mass surveillance of Americans.

No fully autonomous weapons without a human pulling the trigger.

The Pentagon called this “woke AI.”

Anthropic called it a conscience.

The Pentagon’s response was swift and brutal.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth branded Anthropic a “supply chain risk”, a designation normally reserved for Chinese and Russian companies.

President Trump ordered every federal agency to stop using Anthropic immediately.

But here’s where the story turns.

That same night, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, Anthropic’s biggest competitor posted a message.

“Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network.”

The twist? OpenAI’s deal includes the exact same red lines Anthropic was just destroyed for demanding.

No mass surveillance and no autonomous weapons.

Human control over the use of force.

The Pentagon punished one company for demanding protections it then gave to another company the same day.

Altman even defended Anthropic on live television hours earlier.

“For all the differences I have with Anthropic, I mostly trust them as a company and I think they really do care about safety.”

Then he signed the deal Anthropic couldn’t get.

Anthropic was the first and only, AI model deployed on the Pentagon’s classified networks.

Replacing it will take months.

OpenAI just positioned itself to fill the most powerful AI vacancy in the U.S. military.

The stakes are staggering.

Anthropic just raised $30 billion and it was preparing for an IPO.

Now over 300,000 enterprise clients may be forced to cut ties.

Not because the technology failed.

Because the company refused to remove a guardrail that said “don’t spy on Americans.”

But here’s the real question no one’s asking:

If the Pentagon never intended to use AI for mass surveillance as they claim, why was this the hill they chose to die on?

Why blacklist a $380 billion American company over a clause the government says doesn’t even matter?

Sam Altman called for de-escalation.

He asked the Pentagon to offer these same terms to every AI company.
Including Anthropic.

The world just watched a company get punished for saying “no” to surveillance and a competitor rewarded for saying “yes, but with the same conditions.”

Today, I have the solemn responsibility to be the first president to formally apologize to Native peoples – Native American, Native Hawaiian, and Native Alaskan – for what happened during the Indian Boarding School era.

It's long overdue.
