Trump said that there would be a six-month phase-out period for departments, including the Department of Defense, that are "using Anthropic's products, at various levels."
"WE will decide the fate of our Country — NOT some out-of-control, Radical Left AI company run by people who have no idea what the real World is all about," Trump wrote.
