AI in warfare is here: The Pentagon plans strikes on Iran and uses Claude AI to capture Maduro. What does this mean for the world?

In this episode, we unpack the massive geopolitical shifts defining early 2026. We break down the Pentagon's multi-week air campaign strategies to suppress Iranian air defenses, and analyze the UK sending the HMS Prince of Wales carrier to the High Arctic to counter Russian influence. We also discuss the shocking forensic discovery that Alexei Navalny was assassinated using a rare South American frog neurotoxin. Finally, we explore the crossing of a technological rubicon: how the military utilized Anthropic's Claude AI to process unstructured data and orchestrate the capture of Venezuela's Nicholas Maduro, sparking a massive debate on Silicon Valley ethics and military operations.
