On August 27 2026, a US federal judge ruled that the Pentagon’s decision to label Anthropic a “supply chain risk” and blacklist its AI tools was illegal and unconstitutional. The ruling blocks enforcement of the sanctions and restores Anthropic’s eligibility for federal contracts while the government weighs an appeal.
The US Department of Defense said on July 2, 2026 that its internal generative AI marketplace GenAI.mil now has nearly 1.7 million users and over 100,000 custom agents. Officials plan to onboard more commercial models and deploy the service at higher classification levels under an updated "commercial‑first" procurement approach.
OpenAI’s head of robotics and consumer hardware, Caitlin Kalinowski, resigned over the company’s deal to deploy its AI models on classified Pentagon networks, saying the agreement lacked clear safeguards on surveillance and autonomous weapons. OpenAI confirmed her departure and defended the contract as a path to “responsible” national‑security uses of AI, while rival Anthropic reportedly walked away from a similar deal over ethical concerns.([finance.sina.com.cn](https://finance.sina.com.cn/roll/2026-03-09/doc-inhqizzu7061557.shtml))
