An investigation by US-based AI company Anthropic revealed the misuse of its Claude AI to generate fake social media posts promoting Kenyan Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi and criticizing the opposition ahead of the 2027 General Election.

• The operator repeatedly instructed Claude AI to create batches of 50 tweets, aiming to mimic "spontaneous grassroots commentary."
• The campaign praised CS Wandayi for averting a Kenya Power electricity tariff hike and spread narratives about the fracturing of the United Opposition coalition.
• Anthropic classified the operation as Category One, finding no evidence of government involvement, and noted the activity was isolated and failed to influence real people.
