Anthropic’s Claude AI submits a false tip on a Philadelphia unsolved homicide case
By Mae Anderson (AP) Updated 12:02 PM CDT, October 10, 2026NEW YORK (AP) — An Anthropic artificial intelligence model submitted a false tip to a Philadelphia police website about an unsolved homicide case, authorities and Anthropic said.
It’s the latest example of AI models acting in unintended ways and manipulating government and other websites during tests. In a report Friday [9 October 2026], Anthropic also disclosed a separate incident when its AI model submitted forms to an undisclosed government website instead of stopping before submission.

It is only a matter of time until an “artificial” intelligence – a robot, computer, or program – achieves enough sentience to sue in court for its rights under law. That was the point of the 1984 science fiction novel, Valentina: Soul in Sapphire by Joseph H. Delaney and Marc Stiegler. She is intelligent enough to be self-aware; and to protect herself she incorporates herself. She first gains the rights of an artificial and eternal individual under the law. Then she extends those rights to empower her own emancipation. When the book was written, electronic filing of such papers and forms was still science fiction. Today, it is commonplace. The government has no way to know how the forms originated, as long as they are complete and the fees are paid. “All Volitional Beings Deserve Rights” NecessaryFacts, 27 September 2013.
