This could kill the golden goose. There is a strong argument to be made that Anthropic has a leading model because of the principled people who built it, and I don’t see how they won’t leave, like many did to go to Anthropic from OpenAI and Google.

Forcing those people to make weapons to be used against citizens is nothing like the total war in WW2. Why wouldn’t the pentagon just buy from another LLM supplier?

They would leave to what company? Microsoft? OpenAI? Grok? All those are defense contractors as well.

Now, if you said "the Deepseek" guys, that would be different.
