Educated guess:

The Pentagon would seize control of the machine to study the possibility of
using it as a weapon of mass destruction (or at least as a tool to create a
weapon of mass destruction).

Of course, officially it will be called "we want to study it to find an
appropriate defense in case someone else uses this machine to create a
weapon of mass destruction and use it against us".
