which Anthropix had violated its terms of use.

The Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth, threatened to cancel the contract and brand Anthropix a supply chain risk unless it dropped its safety restrictions and stopped telling the US how to use Anthropix AI.

And that started a big conversation, which is raging online around mass surveillance, which is one of the things Anthropix said it didn't want America using with its AI.

They're not altruistic.

There was a research piece done by King's College in London where they ran simulations on Cold War-style war games using Chach-BT, Claude, and Gemini, which are three AI tools.

Each played the leader of a nuclear-armed superpower.

And in every single simulation, at least one of the AI models escalated the crisis by threatening to use nuclear weapons.

Claude, which is owned by Anthropic, recommended nuclear strikes in 64% of games, which was the highest rate among all three of those AI models, but stopped short of advocating for a full strategic nuclear exchange or nuclear war.

Bingo.

Steve, what are you doing?

Just making myself a delicious coffee.

From the freezer?

Have you not heard about Comtia?

No.

Oh my gosh.

This is going to change your life.

I invested in this company called Comtia last year and they're now one of the sponsors of this podcast because they've taken a pretty revolutionary approach to making coffee.

Every coffee is precision brewed at 10 times the strength and then they flash freeze it with liquid nitrogen to lock in the flavour and freshness.

And then it's delivered to you on dry ice in these recyclable aluminium capsules, still frozen like a little ice cube.
