Anthropic’s chatbot Claude has risen to the second spot among free apps in Apple’s U.S. App Store, trailing only OpenAI’s ChatGPT and ahead of Google’s Gemini. The surge follows a high‑profile clash with the Pentagon, where Anthropic sought safeguards against the Department of Defense using its models for mass domestic surveillance or fully autonomous weapons. President Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to cease using Anthropic products, and the Defense Secretary labeled the company a supply‑chain threat. OpenAI later announced its own agreement with the Pentagon that includes similar safeguards. Leer más

Anthropic’s recent Super Bowl commercials, which feature darkly comedic scenarios of users seeking chatbot advice, have driven a sharp rise in the Claude AI app’s popularity.

Downloads surged to an estimated 148,000 between Sunday and Tuesday, a 32% increase over the prior three‑day period. The surge coincided with the release of Anthropic’s Opus 4.6 model and a contrast to competitor ChatGPT’s new ad rollout, highlighting Claude’s “no ads” positioning. Leer más
