The US Treasury Department said Monday it is ending use of all Anthropic products, following US President Donald Trump's government-wide ban on the AI start-up after it rejected the Pentagon's demands.
The US Treasury "is terminating all use of Anthropic products, including the use of its Claude platform, within our department," said Secretary Scott Bessent in a social media statement.
The decision comes at the direction of Trump, he added.
"Under President Trump no private company will ever dictate the terms of our national security," Bessent said on X.
Anthropic had previously turned down the Pentagon's demand that it agree to unconditional military use of its Claude models.
It has since vowed to sue over "intimidation" and insists that its technology should not be used for the mass surveillance of US citizens or deployed in fully autonomous weapons systems.
