Yemen terrorist group used Anthropic's Claude AI, not engineers, to build a missile
Anthropic says a Yemen-based cell used Claude Code in place of human software engineers to write missile guidance software, running three weapons programmes at once.
The AI misuse report details a guided rocket, a 2,000km ballistic missile and a hypersonic glide variant.
Safeguards blocked many requests, but not all.
The group test-fired a rocket, it failed, and they returned to Claude within hours.
Anthropic banned the accounts.
