Anthropix AI tools are currently being used on classified systems.
The company has a $200 million contract with the Defense Department.
But Anthropix CEO Dario Amadei is concerned about exactly how those tools might get used.
In particular, he's worried they could be turned on Americans for mass domestic surveillance or used to power autonomous weapons.
Anthropix Dario Amadei says the company's AI will not be used in two scenarios, for mass domestic surveillance or for AI-assisted lethal drone attacks.
After he emphasized that to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a recent meeting, Hegseth made a direct threat.
Either Anthropix relaxes its AI rules or the Trump administration will retaliate by using Anthropix tools against its wishes as a matter of national security and also banning Anthropix from future military work.
The Pentagon says tactical operations on battlefields require unfettered use of technology, calling anthropic safeguards woke AI.
But anthropic Zamedei says powerful AI without guardrails can lead to illegitimate government abuses.

And one way to think about Anthropic is that it's a little bit trying to put bumpers or guardrails on that experiment, right?
There are whole jobs, whole careers that we built for decades that may not be present.
And, you know, I think we can deal with it.
I think we can adjust to it.
