Dario has even said something along these lines at one point: As the technology matures, it’s very possible the government either nationalizes or semi-nationalizes companies like Anthropic.
That doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility if they can’t land on a relationship similar to existing defense contractors like Raytheon, where these kinds of discussions obviously don't seem to happen.
If the government wants a frontier LLM for military purposes then they can just put out a tender. Defense contractors like Anduril will bid on it. The end product might be slightly worse than what Anthropic sells but, as my dad used to say, "close enough for government work".
