The lawsuit claims that government contracts have been canceled or that private contracts are also being called into question, putting “hundreds of millions of dollars” at risk.

An Anthropic spokesperson told Fortune :

“Seeking judicial review does not change our long-standing commitment to leveraging Artificial Intelligence to protect our national security, but this is a necessary step to protect our business, our customers, and our partners.”

"We will continue to pursue some path towards resolution, including dialogue with the government."
