OpenAI’s Sam Altman says today that they’re gonna take Anthropic’s place on DoW classified networks (https://xcancel.com/sama/status/2027578652477821175#m).

The document then goes on to analyze how the Bundeswehr should respond to potential war scenarios, such as a Russian attack on NATO territory, though the details are classified.
“It goes without saying that we cannot make these scenarios public. Otherwise, we might as well add Vladimir Putin to our mailing list,” Pistorius said.
