It is not every day that a major AI company invokes constitutional values against the US government. Anthropic – the US-American AI company behind Claude – declined the US military’s request for unrestricted access to its AI tools, citing worries about domestic mass surveillance and the use of its technology in fully autonomous weapons. Recognising digital corporations as potential drivers of constitutional rights runs counter to the most recent literature on digital regulation and digital sovereignty. But perceiving them as such remains crucial.
