What happens when the "safety-first" AI company joins forces with the Pentagon? This week, Herman and Corn dive into Anthropic’s partnership with Palantir and AWS, exploring how models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet are being deployed on classified networks like SIPRNet. They peel back the curtain on the mechanics of AI flight—from reinforcement learning to vision transformers—and tackle the terrifying reality of autonomous weapons, "human-on-the-loop" systems, and the potential for "flash wars" in an era of high-speed algorithmic combat.
