In yet another stunning example of Big Tech's anti-American priorities, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei announced Thursday that his company "cannot in good conscience" allow the Department of Defense to use its artificial intelligence models for lawful military purposes—despite direct demands from Pentagon officials.
Think about that, Patriots. While our brave men and women in uniform face threats from China, Iran, and other hostile nations, a Silicon Valley executive is putting his personal political feelings ahead of our national security. This is exactly the kind of Big Tech arrogance that President Trump warned us about during his campaign.
Woke CEO Blocks Military AI Access
Amodei's refusal comes at a critical time when the Pentagon is racing to maintain America's technological edge against adversaries who have no qualms about weaponizing AI. China's military is aggressively developing AI capabilities, but apparently Anthropic's CEO thinks now is the perfect time to handicap our own forces.
"We cannot in good conscience permit the Department of War to use our AI models for all lawful purposes without restrictions," Amodei stated, revealing his company's true priorities.
Notice how he even calls it the "Department of War" instead of the Department of Defense—classic leftist framing that portrays our military as aggressors rather than defenders of freedom.
America First vs. Silicon Valley Elitism
This is precisely why President Trump's America First agenda is so crucial. While Trump fights to put American interests above all else, Big Tech continues to undermine our national security with their globalist, anti-military bias.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth should immediately explore all options to ensure our military has access to the best AI technology available—with or without cooperation from woke Silicon Valley companies that hate America.
How many more examples do we need before Americans realize that Big Tech is actively working against our national interests? It's time to hold these companies accountable for putting their radical ideology ahead of defending the greatest nation on Earth.
