6月8日（路透社）——根据一份诉讼中的法庭文件，特朗普政府周一否认对Anthropic公司实施非法报复，同时承认在该公司拒绝五角大楼关于其Claude聊天机器人军事用途的要求后，美国多家机构已着手切断这家人工智能公司的产品供应。
这份文件是政府对Anthropic 3月9日提起的诉讼的最新回应，该诉讼指控总统唐纳德·特朗普和国防部长皮特·赫格斯因受保护的言论将该公司列入黑名单。

美国司法部还以程序理由对Anthropic的诉讼提出质疑，在旧金山联邦法院的一份文件中表示，该禁令不受法院审查，因为该公司并未挑战“最终的行政行为”。
Anthropic的发言人周一未立即回复置评请求。
Anthropic于3月向加州一家联邦法院提起诉讼，要求法院禁止政府将其列入国家安全黑名单，并阻止联邦机构执行该禁令，称这一指定是非法的，侵犯了其言论自由和正当程序权利。
此次诉讼缘起于五角大楼正式将Anthropic列为供应链风险企业，限制其一项技术的使用，两名消息人士称该技术正被用于伊朗的军事行动。赫格斯在这家初创公司拒绝移除防止其人工智能被用于自主武器或国内监控的防护措施后，作出了这一指定。
旧金山的美国地区法官丽塔·林于3月26日暂时叫停了五角大楼将Anthropic列入黑名单的决定。
这场纠纷被视为考验本届政府对企业的权力，以及政府还是人工智能开发者掌控技术使用方式的试金石。该公司6月1日表示，已秘密提交美国首次公开募股申请。
Anthropic还在华盛顿特区提起了另一宗未决诉讼，涉及五角大楼的另一项供应链风险指定，该指定可能导致其被排除在民用政府合同之外。

June 8 (Reuters) – The Trump administration on Monday denied unlawfully retaliating against Anthropic, while acknowledging that U.S. agencies moved to cut off the AI company’s products after it resisted Pentagon demands over military uses of its Claude chatbot, according to a
court filing
in a lawsuit.
The filing marked the government’s latest response to Anthropic’s March 9 lawsuit, which accuses President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of blacklisting the company for protected speech.

The U.S. Department of Justice also challenged Anthropic’s lawsuit on procedural grounds, saying in a filing in San Francisco federal court that the ban is not subject to court review because the company is not challenging a “final agency action.”
An Anthropic spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday.
Anthropic in March asked a federal court in California to bar the government from placing it on a national security blacklist and to block federal agencies from enforcing the ban, saying the designation was unlawful and violated its free speech and due process rights.
That lawsuit came after the Pentagon slapped a formal supply-chain risk designation on Anthropic, limiting use of a technology that two sources said was being used for military operations in Iran. Hegseth imposed the designation after the startup refused to remove safeguards preventing its AI from being used for autonomous weapons or domestic surveillance.
U.S. District Judge Rita Lin in San Francisco on March 26 temporarily blocked the Pentagon’s blacklisting of Anthropic.
The dispute is seen as a test of the administration’s power over business and whether the government or AI developers control how the technology is used. The company on June 1 said it has confidentially filed for a U.S. initial public offering.
Anthropic also has a second lawsuit pending in Washington, D.C., over a separate Pentagon supply-chain risk designation that could lead to its exclusion from civilian government contracts.
