US artificial intelligence firm Anthropic has revealed that a group in Yemen attempted to use its Claude chatbot to build guided rockets and missiles. The disclosure was made in a report published Thursday detailing the company's efforts to prevent the illegal use of its AI technology across several countries.
According to Anthropic, the actors tested-fired a guided rocket, though the firm stated it currently has no evidence that the individuals successfully fielded a fully operational device. The incident occurs against the backdrop of an offensive by Iran-backed Houthi rebels within Yemen.
