Isikhulu esiphezulu se-Anthropic uDario Amodei usenqabe ngokusobala isicelo sePentagon sokufinyelela okungavinjelwe ezinhlelweni zayo ze-AI ngoLwesine., ethi yena “angekuvume ngonembeza omuhle.” Lokhu kuphawula ukwanda kokungezwani phakathi kwenkampani ehamba phambili ye-AI kanye ne-U.S. UMnyango Wezokuvikela.
Esitatimendeni esikhishwe ngoLwesine, U-Amodei waveza isikhundla senkampani: “I-Anthropic iyakuqonda ukuthi uMnyango Wezokuvikela, hhayi izinkampani ezizimele, yenza izinqumo zempi. Nokho, kusethi yamacala amancane, sikholelwa ukuthi ubuchwepheshe be-AI bungabukela phansi, kunokuvikela, amagugu entando yeningi. Ezinye izinhlelo zokusebenza nazo zingaphezu kwamandla aphephile nathembekile obuchwepheshe bamanje.”
Ingxabano yamanje igxile ezindaweni ezimbili ezibalulekile: ukubhekwa ngobuningi kwezakhamizi zaseMelika kanye nezinhlelo zezikhali ezizimele ezisebenza ngaphandle kokulawula komuntu. I-Pentagon igcizelela ukuthi kufanele ikwazi ukusebenzisa imodeli ye-AI ye-Anthropic kuzo zonke izinjongo ezisemthethweni, bephikisana ngokuthi ukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe akufanele kugunyazwe ukucatshangelwa kwebhizinisi lenkampani ezimele.
Isitatimende sika-Amodei siza ngaphambi komnqamulajuqu obekwe yiPentagon. UNobhala Wezokuvikela uPete Hegseth unikeze i-Anthropic kuze kube 5:01 p.m. NgoLwesihlanu ukwamukela izimfuno zamasosha noma ukubhekana nemiphumela. Ukucindezela inkampani ukuthi ithobele, iPentagon isebenzisa indlela embaxambili: noma ichaza i-Anthropic a “ubungozi be-supply chain”-ilebula eligcinelwe izitha zakwamanye amazwe-noma ukusebenzisa i-Defence Production Act ukuphoqa inkampani ukuthi ibambisane neziyalezo zezempi ngezizathu zokuphepha kazwelonke.. Lesi senzo sinikeza umongameli igunya lokudinga izinkampani ukuthi zibeke eqhulwini ukugcwalisa imiyalo yezokuvikela kazwelonke.
U-Amodei ugqamise ukungqubuzana okukhona kulezi zinsongo ezimbili. “Ngakolunye uhlangothi, basibiza ngokusongela kwezokuphepha; ngakolunye, bancoma imodeli yethu kaClaude njengebalulekile ekuvikelekeni kwezwe.”
Ugcizelele ukuthi nakuba uMnyango Wezokuvikela unelungelo elisemthethweni lokukhetha osonkontileka abahambisana nombono wawo, “uma kubhekwa inani elikhulu ubuchwepheshe be-Anthropic obunikeza amabutho ethu ahlomile, siyethemba ukuthi bazosicubungula kabusha lesi sinqumo.”
Okwamanje, I-Anthropic ukuphela kwenkampani enohlelo lwe-AI lwasemngceleni olugunyazwe njengolubekwe esigabeni-lulungele ukusetshenziswa empini.. Nokho, Imibiko ibonisa ukuthi i-Pentagon nayo isebenzela ukusheshisa ukulungiswa kwenkampani ka-Elon Musk, xAI, ngezinhloso ezifanayo.
