\n <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n[Digital Today AI Reporter] The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) has adopted Anthropic\u2019s new AI model, Mitos Preview, and is using it internally, according to recent reporting.<\/p>\n
On the 19th (local time), IT outlet Engadget reported that the NSA implemented the model even as Anthropic remains at odds with the Department of Defense. Anthropic granted access to Mitos Preview to roughly 40 federal agencies, and the NSA is said to be one of them. A source familiar with the matter said the model isn\u2019t limited to a single office but “is being used more broadly across the agency.”<\/p>\n
Anthropic unveiled Mitos Preview earlier this month as a general-purpose language model and emphasized that it demonstrates “notably strong” capabilities on cybersecurity tasks. The NSA\u2019s adoption suggests the model is now in operational testing within government organizations that have substantial security and intelligence-analysis requirements.<\/p>\n
However, the dispute between Anthropic and the Trump administration continues. In February, President Donald Trump ordered all government agencies to stop using Anthropic\u2019s services after contract negotiations stalled over safeguards for military applications. That directive has produced a split between official federal restrictions and tools actually being used in the field.<\/p>\n
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei recently met with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and other officials to discuss Mitos. The White House described the meeting as “productive and constructive,” but President Trump said he was unaware of the discussions when asked, sending mixed signals.<\/p>\n
Legal battles have followed. After the administration designated Anthropic a “supply chain risk,” the company filed two lawsuits against the Department of Defense in March. The Defense Department pushed back. Courts issued mixed rulings: one judge granted a preliminary injunction temporarily blocking the designation, while another federal court declined Anthropic\u2019s request to lift it.<\/p>\n
In short, Anthropic is simultaneously securing real-world deployments driven by government security needs while contesting the administration\u2019s restrictions in court.
