Google signed a classified Pentagon contract granting the U.S. military unrestricted access to its Gemini AI models on air-gapped networks for “any lawful government purpose.” The deal puts Google alongside OpenAI and xAI in classified military AI, while Anthropic refused the same terms and paid the price. Over 600 Google employees, including 20+ directors and VPs, signed an internal letter urging CEO Sundar Pichai to reverse a decision that was already done.
