A developer emailed Claude Code creator Boris Cherny that AI coding had created "friction." Cherny posted his full response.

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

Chinese AI distillation attacks on Anthropic's Claude grew 12-fold to approximately 190 million exchanges between May and July 2026, as seven Chinese labs -- Alibaba, DeepSeek, Moonshot, and four others -- used fraudulent accounts and proxy networks to extract AI capabilities,

Anthropic said it blocked scientists who used its Claude AI models "in ways that could support biological weapons development."

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

AI was used to develop missile guidance software in Yemen and to power cyber operations, a report alleges.

Earlier this month, Anthropic started placing an imperceptible label on all text produced using its Claude AI model to serve as an indicator that the material was generated with AI. The folks who don’t want it outed that they are using AI for work are now spending their hours looking for a way to scrub their outputs of that marker.

CRUCIAL QUOTE “I had ditched Grammarly for Claude for proofreading because it does a better job,” radio show host and blogger Erick Erickson posted to X. “But now the stuff

Anthropic linked Alibaba to more than 151 million Claude exchanges and DeepSeek to another 12.1 million as Chinese labs sought advanced reasoning capabilities.

Anthropic said Thursday it has blocked efforts by bad actors to use its artificial intelligence models for malicious activity such as cyberattacks, surveillance, and research that could have led to biological weapons.
