Last update: 12 hours agoAI in Yemen’s war: Anthropic says a northern Yemen weapons cell used Claude Code to write guidance software for a guided rocket and a 2,000 km ballistic missile, then test-fired a rocket that appeared to fail before returning to the model with telemetry. Red Sea pressure: Houthi advances and alleged AI-made deception during the Mocha offensive are adding to fears of tighter control around Bab al-Mandeb, while Saudi Arabia faces drone-linked pipeline shutdowns and mounting shipping risk. AI misuse beyond Yemen: Anthropic also reports an Iran-linked actor used Claude to compile targeting handbooks for U.S. Navy forces using open-source data, and warns misuse is shifting from cybercrime into surveillance, propaganda, and weapons. AI safety debate: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urges the industry to slow model progress so safeguards can catch up, warning of fast-moving risks. Energy fallout: With Red Sea and Hormuz disruptions, oil prices stay above $100 and fuel costs are tightening pressure on markets and inflation.
