SCOOP: The Pentagon/Anthropic feud has been all over the news, but few details about how the military actually uses AI chatbots have come out, until today
@carolinehaskins.bsky.social uncovered tons of specifics about how these tools are likely being deployed www.wired.com/story/palant...
NEW: Trump wants troops to go in and take Iran's enriched uranium. @carolinehaskins.bsky.social dove into how that would work—or, more likely, turn into a disaster: www.wired.com/story/us-ira...
Experts say that an American ground operation targeting nuclear sites in Iran would be incredibly complicated, put troops’ lives at great risk—and might still fail.
Here's what really matters about the OpenClaw hype in China that got grandmas queueing to install it:
OpenClaw adopters are enthusiastic or desperate enough to pay for servers and API calls without hesitation. To Chinese companies, that's the best news they've ever heard, so they are going all in.
Throughout this fight between Anthropic and the Pentagon you might have wondered what the military actually uses LLM chatbots for. @carolinehaskins.bsky.social has the best answer I've seen anywhere

a day late here, but I think the today show should lean into this...... do a recurring segment, ask the most unintuitive questions imaginable about whatever a celeb is promoting.... executed well, celebs will be trained specifically on how to perform on the segment, and the preparation will fail 🙏
ICMYI: I broke down everything we know about what, specifically, Anthropic's Claude is & isn't doing inside Palantir tech used by the US military.
For the story, I carefully reviewed every relevant demo & report that Palantir & the military have ever released:

NEW: Tons of recent news reports have mentioned the fact that Claude works inside war tech from Palantir to help the Pentagon select its targets.
But how does this actually work? What specifically is Claude doing vs not doing?

NEW: It’s increasingly possible that we’ll soon have US troops on the ground in Iran. 1 option the admin has floated is having troops physically retrieve Iran’s nuclear material.
How would this actually work? I spoke to 2 experts who gave incredible details & insight:
www.wired.com/story/us-ira...
New: I obtained docs from the IRS about a $1.8 million Palantir contract that began early last year. They provide new details on a custom tool Palantir built for the IRS, the “Selection and Analytic Platform," and the wildly bloated ecosystem it's supposed to simplify:

Software demos and Pentagon records detail how chatbots like Anthropic’s Claude could help the Pentagon analyze intelligence and suggest next steps.

Hype around the open source agent is driving people to rent cloud servers and buy AI subscriptions just to try it, creating a windfall for tech companies.
