AI is so advanced that it is now working with the government. Anthropic wants to work with them to help support the government but they have a couple of concerns. Number 1 is the concern that the government will use them for mass surveillance. Number two is that the government will use Anthropic to make fully autonomous weapons. These two concerns were brought to the government because they did not meet Anthropics concerns. The government gave them a three day ultimatum to agree and told them that there may be a supply chain risk.
Anthropic does not want the government to use them for mass surveillance. Even though mass surveillance is not necessarily illegal, Anthropic believes it is not good because people don’t like to be spied on. They believe that the governments urge to use mass surveillance is an abuse of the governments authority.
The other reason Anthropic is having issues is because they don’t want the government to use them to make fully autonomous weapons. Even though AI is very advanced, Anthropic believes that they are not reliable enough. They want to protect citizens because fully autonomous weapons can shoot innocent people. They believe that the government relying on Anthropic to make fully autonomous weapons will hurt the government instead of help it. Anthropic isn’t against it. They just know that there company is not reliable enough yet to make those kinds of weapons.
