Anthropic report links Claude to pro-Russian disinformation in Africa

Anthropic's report alleges its AI model Claude was used in pro-Russian disinformation campaigns in the Central African Republic, with similar claims in DRC, Kenya, Sudan, and Mali. The report is based on internal analysis, and the extent of AI's role remains unverified. This marks a notable instance of AI-enabled influence operations targeting African states, raising concerns about election integrity and regional stability.
