Washington DC [US], March 2 (ANI): The United States used an array of weapons in the strikes conducted against Iran as a part of Operation Epic Fury on Saturday--which included artificial intelligence services from Anthropic, according to a report by Reuters.
The Pentagon used artificial intelligence services from Anthropic, including its Claude tools, during its attack on Iran, Reuters reported on Sunday citing a source familiar with the situation.
The use of Anthropic comes shortly after the US had declared it as a supply chain risk and threat to national security. As per Reuters in it could not determine how the tools were used in the war effort, and Pentagon and Anthropic did not immediately return a request for comment.
