Overview

• Anthropic says the Claude Gov models were built from direct government feedback to support strategic planning, operational support and cybersecurity assessments.
• Models have enhanced proficiency in critical languages and dialects, boosting their ability to interpret defense and intelligence documents.
• Deployment is limited to cleared personnel operating within classified environments at the highest levels of U.S. national security.
• Anthropic’s launch intensifies competition as OpenAI, Meta, Google and other AI firms adapt models for government and military use.
• Analysts caution that loosening safety guardrails for classified-use models could heighten risks of bias or misuse in military applications.
