A San Francisco judge has temporarily blocked the Pentagon's sanctions against AI company Anthropic, which labeled the firm a national security risk. The ruling, effective in seven days, stems from Anthropic's refusal to allow its AI models for certain military applications, which the judge found potentially violated free speech rights.
