Compare the articel to the one posted 10m minutes earlier on CNBC with the title "Anthropic, Google, OpenAI and xAI granted up to $200 million for AI work from Defense Department".

From that article:

> KEY POINTS

> The U.S. Department of Defense on Monday said it's granting contract awards of up to $200 million to several AI companies.

> The DoD's Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office said the awards will help the agency accelerate its adoption of AI solutions.

> The recipients of the contract awards include Anthropic, Google, OpenAI and xAI.
