Layoffs next month to make up for this? /s
ZeroGravitas•2h ago
Does this mean Google is a proscribed terrorist organisation or whatever the legal designation is and can no longer work with the US government?
tomrod•2h ago
Does the EO actually hold any weight to that designation, or is that decided by the US Congress?
layer8•2h ago
No. Google can’t make use of Anthropic within the scope of their own government contracts. That doesn’t mean they can’t invest in Anthropic otherwise.
infecto•2h ago
Was there ever anything more than a tweet from the secretary of defense? That holds no weight.
layer8•2h ago
Yes, they’ve been formally designated: https://www.anthropic.com/news/where-stand-department-war
infecto•2h ago
Ahh yes I forgot on that. Still seemed like not much of any impact, blowing smoke.
