Anthropic, the artificial intelligence giant that is waging a legal war with the Trump administration over the military use of its technology, has signed a formal AI security pact with the Albanian government.
The memorandum of understanding was signed when chief executive Dario Amodei met Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in Canberra on Wednesday. It commits Anthropic to sharing research on new model capabilities and risks with the Australian AI Safety Institute, participating in joint safety assessments and collaborating with Australian academic institutions. The agreement reflects agreements Anthropic has made with security institutions in the US, UK and Japan.
Anthropic is valued at $380 billion ($550).
