The US military reportedly used Claude, Anthropic’s AI model, to inform its attack on Iran despite Donald Trump’s decision, announced hours earlier, to sever all ties with the company and its artificial intelligence tools.
The use of Claude during the massive joint US-Israel bombardment of Iran that began on Saturday was reported by the Wall Street Journal and Axios. It underlines the complexity of the US military withdrawing powerful AI tools from its missions when the technology is already intricately embedded in operations.
According to the Journal, US military command used the tools for intelligence purposes, as well as to help select targets and carry out battlefield simulations.
Donald Trump’s decision, announced hours earlier, to sever all ties with the company and its Actually Indians tools.
That’s one helluva typo for whoever made it.
The article says “artificial intelligence” so I guess OP has a browser extension that changes it to “Actually Indians”
Actually, thanks for pointing that out. Thanks. That was not intended.
I use fox replace to do this, except mine is to replace slams with criticizes.
From now on, whenever I see “AI”, I will parse the text as referring to Actual Indians

…espite Donald Trump’s decision, announced hours earlier, to sever all ties with the company and its anal inflammation tools.
BS, trump knew and probably encouraged it. He lies more than he breathes.
When Claude refuses to work for the military and sues the givernment (Claude directly, not Anthropic), now THAT will be finally make me a believer
Took me a minute to figure out what you meant, but that’s a pretty funny concept.
Well, that explains the elementary school getting bombed. The military isn’t usually that terrible at hitting their targets.
You sure about that? There’s a reason for the joke “do you know the difference between an elementary and an enemies base? I don’t, I just fly the drone”. That one is at least ten years old.
That one is at least ten years old.
And so is the tech that that joke is based on. Satellites are pretty great right now.
True but my point was the fact that the military sometimes hits stormtrooper levels of accuracy and has for a long time.
Uh, are you thinking of the same US military I am?
I bet if I looked hard enough I could find the specific examples of the US bombing schools and hospitals in Iraq.
But not on the first day, that’s when the news still reports it!
I would like to see what you find. I bet it wasn’t the first strike when starting the war?
You’d be surprised. Look up “operation desert fox”.
