Amid the escalating and chaotic war in the Middle East, the United States military reportedly used Anthropic's Claude AI tool during operations linked to Iran, even as President Donald Trump publicly cut ties with the company. The decision has exposed a widening gap between political talk and what actually happens behind closed doors.
Claude was reportedly used in support roles connected to military planning and analysis tied to the recent airstrikes in Iran. Reports said the tool was in play despite Trump's move to sever all ties with Anthropic and its artificial intelligence systems.
