US military used Anthropic for Iran strike despite Trump’s ban: WSJ

CryptoBreaking

The US military reportedly relied on Anthropic’s Claude AI during a major air strike in Iran, a development that surfaced just hours after President Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to halt use of the model. Commands in the region, including CENTCOM, reportedly used Claude to support intelligence analysis, target vetting, and battlefield simulations. The episode highlights how deeply AI tooling has been woven into defense operations even as policymakers push to cut ties with certain vendors. The episode underscores a tension between executive directives and on-the-ground automation that could influence procurement and risk management across defense programs.
