The White House has issued a new artificial intelligence policy memo that addresses key issues underlying a current dispute between AI company Anthropic and the Pentagon, according to reports.

The memo reportedly touches on matters related to the disagreement over Anthropic's access to a system called Mythos, though specific details of the White House position have not been fully disclosed.

The dispute appears to center on Anthropic's plans for accessing the Mythos system, with the White House reportedly opposing certain aspects of the company's proposed approach. The Pentagon's role in this disagreement suggests the matter involves national security or defense-related AI applications.

Anthropicis one of the leading AI companies developing large language models and has been working on various applications of artificial intelligence technology. The company's interaction with government agencies has become increasingly significant as AI systems play larger roles in national security and government operations.

The timing of the White House memo suggests the administration is taking an active role in resolving or providing guidance on the dispute between the private AI company and the defense department.
