I mean, Anthropic is valued at checks $380 billion and brought in $14 billion in revenue last year. End of the day, $200 million in federal contracts isn’t going to swing the needle that much.
This doesn’t mean that what Trump is doing is reasonable, but unless there’s more at risk, I don’t think that I’d lose that much sleep over it.
The company cited safety concerns as the reason for refusing to lift restrictions.
They don’t want to take on the liability. You know the gov would throw the company under the bus if it fucked up in a catastrophic way. And not only financial and legal liability, but also damage to their reputation.

Managing risk is critical to any business.
I don’t think it’s liability. Whole bunch of companies helped the Nazis and came out with their reputation intact afterwards.
I think they’re afraid of helping people that might threaten their money.
