WSJ: U.S. Military Middle East Airstrike Used Anthropic AI Technology, Signed by Trump Hours Earlier Ban

2026.03.01 09:28:55

**March 1st (Wall Street Journal) — The U.S. recently deployed AI technology from Anthropic in airstrikes against targets in the Middle East, according to new reports.** Hours before the strikes, former President Donald Trump signed an executive order targeting Anthropic—a timeline that has sparked questions about policy coordination and implementation. U.S. officials have not yet disclosed details on the specific AI capabilities used or the full scope of the executive order. Separately, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman hosted an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on X (formerly Twitter) about the company’s engagement with the U.S. Department of Defense. He noted Anthropic was “very close” to finalizing a collaboration with the Pentagon, with strong mutual interest across most negotiation stages. However, tensions escalated rapidly in late talks, leading the deal to fall through. On security governance, the firms have stark strategic differences. OpenAI uses a “layered approach”: building a full security tech stack, deploying Frontline Deployment Engineers (FDEs), integrating security researchers into projects, and delivering services directly to the Pentagon via cloud infrastructure. Rather than including extensive specific prohibitions in contracts, OpenAI relies on existing legal frameworks and prioritizes technical security measures as core safeguards.

Goldman Sachs: AI spending tailwinds cannot offset selling pressure on South Korean stocks, as the size of leveraged ETFs has halved from its peak.

Goldman Sachs noted in its latest South Korea market weekly report that despite foreign investors’ consecutive net purchases of the KOSPI recently and Alphabet’s upward revision of its AI capital expenditure expectations further reinforcing the semiconductor demand narrative, the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) still fell around 2% last week. By sector, construction, software and telecom held up relatively well, while securities, automotives and insurance led declines. In terms of market performance, the KOSPI extended its sell-off on July 24, closing 5.72% lower at 6,690.62 points, hitting an intraday low of 6,650.41 points, with programmatic trading briefly suspended. Yonhap News Agency reported that rising Middle East tensions suppressed risk appetite, with foreign investors and institutions combined net selling roughly 5.2 trillion won that day, while retail investors net bought around 5.18 trillion won. Goldman Sachs holds that foreign capital inflows are mainly concentrated in the tech sector, but the South Korean market still faces significant medium-term capital outflow pressure, and foreign holdings in the semiconductor sector are near historical lows. Meanwhile, the KOSPI’s 12-month forward earnings per share (EPS) forecast was cut by 0.4%, with the automotive sector facing the largest pressure on earnings expectation adjustments. Margin leverage is also cooling: the report shows that South Korean retail investors’ margin balance has dropped from a peak of $25 billion to $22 billion, and the size of leveraged ETFs has fallen from $53 billion to $26 billion. For South Korea’s stock market, AI capital expenditure remains a core support, but amid downward earnings forecast revisions, light foreign investor positioning and fluctuating risk appetite, the index’s short-term volatility may continue to expand.
