Defense Department CTO Emil Michael on Friday said Anthropic is still a supply chain risk, but that Mythos, the company’s artificial intelligence model with advanced cyber capabilities, is a “separate national security moment.”
“I think the Mythos issue that’s being dealt with government wide, not just at Department War, is a separate national security moment where we have to make sure that our networks our hardened up, because that model has capabilities that are particular to finding cyber vulnerabilities and patching them,” Michael told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Friday.
Michael’s comments come after a heated clash between the DOD and Anthropic spilled into public view earlier this year. The DOD declared Anthropic a supply chain risk, which means its technology purportedly threatens U.S. national security, after the two sides failed to agree on how Anthropic’s models could be used by the agency.
Because of the supply chain risk designation, defense contractors have to certify that they do not use Anthropic’s Claude models in their work with the military. Anthropic sued the Trump administration in March to try to reverse the Pentagon’s blacklisting.
Michael said Friday the DOD still wants guardrails, and that those “are negotiable based on what they are with all the companies, and they have different views on that.”
