In a new blog post, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has admitted that it received a letter from the Defense Department, officially labeling it a supply chain risk. He said he doesn't "believe this action is legally sound," and that his company sees "no choice" but to challenge it in court. Hours before Amodei published the post, the Pentagon announced that it notified the company that its "products are deemed a supply chain risk, effective immediately."
If you'll recall, the Defense Department (called the Department of War under the current administration) threatened to give the company the designation typically reserved for firms from adversaries like China if it didn't agree to remove its safeguards over mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. President Trump then ordered federal agencies to stop using Anthropic's tech.
Amodei explained that the designation has a narrow scope, because it only exists to protect the government. That is why the general public, and even Defense Department contractors, can still use Anthropic's Claude chatbot and its AI technologies. Microsoft told

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is gearing up to spill the beans on Microsoft's next-generation console. In a post on X today, she revealed that the system is codenamed "Project Helix." Confirming previous rumors, she says it will "lead in performance" and play both console and PC games. Sharma also notes that she'll be discussing the system at GDC next week with partners and developers.
The next-gen console tease follows Sharma's appointment as Xbox CEO a few weeks ago, after former Xbox head Phil Spencer stepped down. Last year, it was clear that things were rocky for Microsoft's storied gaming brand, and the executive shakeup certainly didn't help much. But it'll be interesting to hear more details about Project Helix at GDC — is it simply a PC masquerading as a console? What sort of performance benchmarks is Microsoft trying to reach, and will we get any hints about hardware?
