GoKawiilAnthropic reports blocked attempts to misuse Claude for bioweapons research
Anthropic disclosed that it stopped several attempts this year by researchers to use its Claude AI models for work that could aid biological weapons development. The company cited five cases where users tried to bypass safety controls or disguise their research intent, some originating from countries it restricts from accessing its models, including Russia, China and Iran. It banned the associated accounts but withheld details about the institutions or countries involved.
