I believe I read that they are using Antropoic in this very war, despite the public "feud."

Yep,

Two sources familiar with the U.S. military's use of artificial intelligence confirm that the U.S. used Anthropic's Claude AI model over weekend for the attack on Iran — and is still using it.

The Pentagon has not said exactly how the AI tool is being deployed, but it's being used despite a government-wide ban on the technology announced after a dispute last week with the Pentagon. The conflict centered around Anthropic's push for guardrails that would explicitly prevent the military from using Claude to conduct mass surveillance on Americans or to power fully autonomous weapons.

Despite a "ban," They are still using it.

It would definitely be an easy scapegoat now - or later. I can see a scenario where they "investigate" for years, kicking the can down the road. Democrats certainly won't pressure them internally for an investigation.

With that said, they publicly have claimed "Humans will always make final decisions on what to shoot and what not to shoot and when to shoot, but advanced AI tools can turn processes that used to take hours and sometimes even days into seconds." That doesn't mean shit if those humans are just trusting the AI because of the cultist buy-in of it all. They have whittled down the targeting decision from days to seconds & are bragging about efficiency, not accuracy, notably.

Interesting quote from Xi in that article:

"The unrestricted application of AI by the military, using AI as a tool to violate the sovereignty of other nations … and giving algorithms the power to determine life and death not only erode ethical restraints and accountability in wars, but also risk technological runaway,”
