Yeah militaries don't use commercial chatbots for that, they have their own machine learning implementations. Look into Project Maven for example.

And while there are still humans in the loop, the impression I get is that this is increasingly becoming meaningless, from the way they talk about optimizing the "kill chain" and letting small teams make hundreds of targeting decisions per hour.

First link says

> AI is ‘identifying and prioritising targets, recommending weaponry and evaluating legal grounds for a strike’.

It doesn't specify which "AI" though.

These days that pretty much means "somebody used a computer".

This later story suggested it was Palantir's Maven, not Anthropic's Claude: https://www.theguardian.com/news/2026/mar/26/ai-got-the-blam...
