Selective service activation, I.E. a draft. Requires an act of Congress. When did they enact a bill to draft Anthropic?

Great article, it has a list of times it's been used to compel cooperation.


Ok. So what's the emergency prompting them to take control of Anthropic?

Further, why would they also accuse them of being a national security threat in the same breath? Seems like if they're a threat they're also not someone you want working on national security. Especially under duress. That feels like a bad combination.


Sorry buddy, I let this cool off because it wasn't going in a productive direction.

I have learned that other people are a mirror, if I cannot understand them, it's because there is something hidden inside me that I need to look for.

With respect to the original topic:

In my opinion, the Secretary of War and Anthropic are playing a power game. Whether we agree with their tactics or not, doesn't matter. Trying to understand why and how it's played, and the outcome, could be useful for predicting future power games.
