Same Anthropic:

In a June 2026 Bloomberg interview about Claude’s reported role in U.S. military targeting systems, Amodei said Anthropic did not know whether Claude had been used in connection with the Minab school strike, but that, if it had, the use case would not violate Anthropic’s red lines.[35][36] The exchange concerned the 2026 Minab school strike, which Amnesty International described as an unlawful U.S. strike that killed 156 people, including 120 children, and which Human Rights Watch said should be investigated as a war crime.[37][38]

Something unusual is happening here, these Techbros are trying to invoke patriotism and leverage fear of the insurgents to aid their monopoly. It’s unusual as it signalling weakness rather than confidence in their ability to develop and manage their technology.

Our technology isn't capable of understanding advanced missile tech, it's only good for deciding who gets killed with advanced missile tech.

Why didn't they use open source models 😂

Few potential reasons, the most likely being a lack of access to the amount of compute, electricity, and knowhow.

Or they wanted to use the "mainstream option" idk

[–] lithiumground@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Yeah, and it is free(in a money context) and straightforward to use

Anthropic is turning out to be an eager volunteer voice for the most harmful Fascist Empire in human history. Boycott those Uckers and everyone working for, or associated with them..

If you have used their product and it doesn't contain any private identifiable info, then share the whole session-log/thinking to the netz ! F' the Fascist Dario pig..
