Obviously, the Department of War has the right to refuse to use anthropics models. In fact, I think they have an entirely reasonable case for doing so. Imagine if there's some future Democratic administration and Elon Musk is negotiating Starlink access to the military and Elon says, "Look, I reserve the right to cut off the military's access to Starlink in case you are fighting some unjust war. " And if that's all the government had done to say we refuse to do business philanthropic, that would have been fine and I wouldn't have written this blog post and I wouldn't be narrating this to you. But that's not what the government did. Instead, the government has threatened to destroy Enthropic as a private business because Enthropic refuses to sell to the government on terms that the government commands. In the future, AI will be woven into how every product is built and maintained and operates. In the future, if Amazon is providing some service to the Department of War through AWS and that service is built using cloud code, is that a supply chain risk? And this raises a question that the Department of War probably hasn't thought through. If you do end up in this world with powerful and pervasive AI, then when forced to choose between their AI provider and the Department of War, which constitutes a tiny fraction of the revenue, wouldn't they rather drop the government than the AI? So, what exactly is the Pentagon's plan here? Is it to coersse and threaten and bully every single company that won't do business with the government on exactly the terms that the government demands?
