周四晚间,一名法官永久禁止特朗普政府执行旨在切断Anthropic与联邦政府联系的一系列规则,裁定该政府因这家人工智能公司受到保护的言论而对其实施了违宪惩罚。
这一裁决标志着Anthropic在长达数月的法律战中取得胜利,这场纠纷源于政府试图对其强大的人工智能模型Claude施加监管限制,而该模型正被军方使用。Anthropic曾试图阻止Claude被用于大规模监控或完全自主武器,但军方辩称应允许其将该模型用于所有合法用途。
由于双方未能达成协议,特朗普总统今年早些时候下令联邦机构停止使用Claude,国防部长皮特·赫格斯西则将该公司列为供应链风险企业,旨在阻止私人国防承包商使用该模型为军方开展工作。当时的政府辩称,这些举措对保障国家安全而言是必要的。
在周四的裁决中,旧金山的美国地区法官丽塔·林宣布,这些行为违反了第一修正案,因为政府因Anthropic与自身政见不同而惩罚该公司,称其为“对Anthropic受宪法保护的表达活动进行的非法报复”。她还表示,针对Anthropic的举措侵犯了该公司的正当程序权利。
林法官表示,她的裁决并未要求政府必须使用Anthropic的产品,也没有阻止政府选择其他人工智能公司,“只要这些行为符合适用的法规、法律和宪法条款即可”。
“在重大国家安全问题上,政府当然应获得尊重,”林法官在一份长达59页的意见书中写道。“但被告方当时的言行证实,受到质疑的举措是出于将Anthropic作为公开典型的意图,以惩戒其批评政府的‘傲慢行为’,而非基于任何合理依据认定Anthropic确实会破坏其模型。”

Judge rules Trump administration illegally punished AI firm Anthropic

A judge late Thursday permanently barred the Trump administration from enforcing a set of rules aimed at cutting off Anthropic from the federal government, ruling the administration had unconstitutionally punished the artificial intelligence company for protected speech.
The ruling marks a victory for Anthropic in its monthslong legal battle against the administration over its push to impose guardrails on its powerful AI model Claude, which is used by the military. Anthropic sought to prevent Claude from being used for mass surveillance or fully autonomous weapons, but the military argued it should be allowed to use the model for all lawful purposes.
With the two sides unable to reach a deal, President Trump ordered federal agencies to stop using Claude earlier this year, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared the firm a supply chain risk, aiming to prevent private defense contractors from using it to do work for the military. The administration argued those moves were necessary to safeguard national security.
In her ruling Thursday, U.S. District Judge Rita Lin of San Francisco declared that those actions violated the First Amendment by punishing it for disagreeing with the government, calling them “unlawful retaliation against Anthropic for constitutionally protected expressive activities.” She also said the moves against Anthropic violated the company’s due process rights.
Lin said her order does not require the government to use Anthropic or stop it from giving another AI firm its business, “so long as those actions are consistent with applicable regulations, statutes, and constitutional provisions.”
“The government is certainly owed deference on weighty issues of national security,” Lin wrote in a 59-page opinion. “But Defendants’ contemporaneous words and deeds confirm that the challenged actions were based on a desire to make a public example out of Anthropic for its ‘arrogance’ in criticizing the government, not based on any articulable basis to believe that Anthropic would actually sabotage its model.”
This is a breaking story; it will be updated.
