Despite being flagged as a supply chain risk by the Pentagon due to its refusal to allow unrestricted lawful use of its technology, Anthropic will likely continue supplying its Claude-based "Mythos" model to the NSA, with the arrangement personally approved by White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. Mythos is reportedly the only short-term solution for the NSA's classified networks because it can run on older chips, unlike models from competitors that require Nvidia's latest hardware. A contract being finalized includes a clause preventing the model from processing Americans' data, and the White House intends to use it as a template for future AI agreements.
