Pentagon Chief Technology Officer: Anthropic still on the blacklist, Mythos exception handling
The Pentagon’s technology chief (Pentagon technology chief) told Congress on May 1 that “Anthropic is still on the blacklist, but Mythos Preview is another matter,” formally acknowledging that the Department of Defense is treating Anthropic’s main brand and its new model, Mythos, differently. This statement aligns with what Axios revealed on April 19, that the NSA (National Security Agency) has already effectively used Mythos, and it also formally established the policy direction of a “Mythos exception pipeline”—while also meaning the Pentagon previously argued in court that using Anthropic tools would threaten national security, creating an internal contradiction between its legal arguments and its current practical actions.

Meta plans to issue $25 billion in debt to back AI: In 2026, capital expenditures are set to reach $145 billion
Meta completed the issuance of $25 billion across six tranches on 4/30, with maturities extending to 2066. The initial yield was about 180 basis points higher than U.S. Treasuries, with subscriptions of around $96 billion but lower than the previous round. At the same time, it raised its 2026 capital expenditure guidance to $125–$145 billion. The founders also admitted there is still no detailed, item-by-item AI product plan. After the earnings report, the stock price fell 7%, suggesting the market still doubts whether the AI investment can “monetize.” If ROI remains unclear, the risk is twofold: an upcoming debt issuance wave from tech giants over the next 12 months and the widening of credit spreads.
