The U.S. military reportedly utilized Anthropic’s AI tool, Claude, during the operation that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro and his wife, who face narcotics charges in the U.S. This deployment was part of Anthropic’s collaboration with Palantir Technologies, widely used by the Defense Department. Although Anthropic declined to confirm specific operations involving Claude, it asserted that all usage complies with its policies prohibiting violent applications. Concerns over the AI’s military use have been raised, including discussions within the Trump administration about potentially canceling a significant contract with Anthropic.
