The report attributed the statement to the company. The headline of Le Monde's article stated that the AI developer blocked misuse of its system that could have supported biological weapons.

The full text of the Le Monde article could not be retrieved, and the report as accessible did not specify which Anthropic system was involved, when the attempted misuse occurred, how the company detected it, or what, if any, action was taken beyond blocking it. No independent confirmation of the incident was available.

Anthropic has not issued a separate public statement that could be reviewed, and Le Monde's report did not include further comment from the company or from any outside party.
