Even Ilya Sutskever weighed in on the Anthropic-Pentagon situation.
The OpenAI co-founder, who left after CEO Sam Altman’s ouster and reinstatement and then started his own AI startup called Safe Superintelligence, posted on X:
It’s extremely good that Anthropic has not backed down, and it’s siginficant that OpenAI has taken a similar stance.
In the future, there will be much more challenging situations of this nature, and it will be critical for the relevant leaders to rise up to the occasion, for fierce competitors to put their differences aside. Good to see that happen today.
AI companies could stand together to draw red lines on military AI — why aren’t they?

It’s more than just a $200 million military contract at stake.
