U.S. Strikes Used Anthropic Despite Trump Ban
March 2, 2026 at 11:50 am EST By Taegan Goddard


“Within hours of declaring that the federal government will end its use of artificial-intelligence tools made by tech company Anthropic, President Trump launched a major air attack in Iran with the help of those very same tools,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Commands around the world, including U.S. Central Command in the Middle East, use Anthropic’s Claude AI tool.”

“The command uses the tool for intelligence assessments, target identification and simulating battle scenarios even as tension between the company and Pentagon ratcheted up, the people said, highlighting how embedded the AI tools are in military operations.”
