Overview
- U.S. Central Command says it is using advanced AI to sift huge data streams in seconds and help commanders make faster decisions in the Iran campaign.
- Palantir’s CTO says the Maven Smart System pulls battlefield feeds and intelligence into one map to speed the military’s long, paperwork‑heavy targeting process.
- GZERO reports Maven is linked to Anthropic’s Claude language model to turn findings into real‑time strike recommendations, with humans still approving each action.
- The Pentagon labeled Anthropic a supply‑chain risk this month and Anthropic sued in response, while contractors warn removing Claude from classified workflows could take months and slow active operations.
- After a U.S. Tomahawk hit an elementary school in Minab and killed many civilians, lawmakers pressed for an inquiry into any AI role and experts warned about automation bias, though reporting points to outdated human intelligence as the likely cause.
