Employees across OpenAI and Google support Anthropic’s lawsuit against the Pentagon

The Trump administration has designated Anthropic as a 'supply chain risk' - a label typically used for foreign adversaries - prompting Anthropic to file a lawsuit against the Pentagon. Nearly 40 employees from competing AI companies OpenAI and Google, including high-profile figures like Jeff Dean, have filed an amicus brief supporting Anthropic's legal challenge, suggesting deep industry concern about government overreach and weaponization of national security designations against domestic AI companies.
