Sam Altman says "the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety."

Not 24 hours ago, he seemed to back Anthropic "supporting our warfighters" as long as two "red lines" weren't crossed, though his tepid support was laden with five instances of "I think" and one "mostly."

Domestic mass surveillance
(presumably, foreign mass surveillance is ok)

Autonomous weapons
(likely because they would be held legally liable for misfires)
