Anthropic says it disrupted the operation, which compiled ship transponder data, military photos, and satellite imagery to track American vessels

Anthropic says seven China-based AI labs, including Alibaba and DeepSeek, ran industrial-scale attacks to extract Claude's capabilities.

The report documents threat actors using Claude to research and develop drone swarms, anti-torpedo weapons systems, and targeting recommendations.

Anthropic PBC says its artificial intelligence model Claude has been misused in attempts to develop a wide range of potential military applications, including kamikaze drone swarms, missile navigation systems and biological weapons.

Anthropic said Claude received a request to fund research that could have been used to build a biological weapon.

Claude was developed by Anthropic, a San Francisco-based company founded in 2021 by former OpenAI employees focusing on AI safety and research. Dario Amodei, the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, had served as vice president of research at OpenAI. His sister Daniela Amodei serves as Anthropic’s president.

Anthropic reveals Chinese AI labs including Alibaba, DeepSeek, and Moonshot harvested nearly 190 million exchanges from Claude in coordinated

Anthropic's Claude recently formalized Fermat's Last Theorem in just 11 days, a task Kevin Buzzard's £1 million project aims to complete over five years.

Anthropic said in a threat intelligence report on Thursday that several actors had used its Claude AI models for activities ranging from weapons

Anthropic said Alibaba, Moonshot, Zhipu, DeepSeek, and Xiaomi all tried to use Claude to train their models in various ways.
