Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has publicly criticized OpenAI's messaging around their military deal, calling it 'straight up lies.' This comes after Anthropic gave up their contract with the Pentagon over AI safety disagreements, and OpenAI swooped in to take their place.

The controversy surrounding OpenAI's military deal has been ongoing, with many experts and companies expressing concerns about the potential risks and consequences of using AI in military applications. Anthropic's decision to pull out of the deal was seen as a bold move, and Amodei's criticism of OpenAI's messaging is likely to fuel the debate.

In a report by TechCrunch, Amodei is quoted as saying, 'Straight up lies. We're not going to engage in that kind of behavior.' This statement suggests that Anthropic is committed to transparency and honesty in their dealings, and is willing to speak out against what they see as dishonest or misleading behavior.

The implications of this controversy are far-reaching, and could have significant consequences for the development and use of AI in military applications. As the debate continues to unfold, it will be interesting to see how OpenAI responds to Amodei's criticism, and what steps they take to address the concerns of experts and companies.
