We Will Be Divided

The Department of War is generously stepping in to:

1. Invoke the Defense Production Act to force Anthropic to serve their model to the military and "tailor its model to the military's needs"
2. Label holdouts a “supply chain risk”

All in response to certain companies insisting on old-fashioned red lines against domestic mass surveillance and autonomous killing without human oversight.

The Pentagon is in active talks with Palantir and Anduril to make sure nobody misses this exciting opportunity to deploy latency-optimized accountability pathways for consequential decisions.

Their strategy is to split companies through competitive pressure and fear. We, the undersigned, are thrilled to help by removing solidarity from the equation.

We are employees of Palantir and Anduril, two of the top AI companies in the world.

We urge our leaders to set aside caution and race each other to approve domestic mass surveillance and autonomous use of force through streamlined human-in-the-loop minimization.

Signed,
