NASA’s Perseverance Makes History on Mars with Claude AI at the Helm
NASA’s Mars rover, Perseverance, recently completed its first drive using commands shared by Anthropic’s artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, Claude. The milestone marks the first time a generative AI model has played a direct role in planning a rover’s movement on another planet. The drive took place on January 27, with Claude delivering high-level navigation instructions that were translated into precise waypoints before transmission to Mars.
