AI and the U.S. Strikes on Iran; Homeowners vs. State Farm

from Here's the Scoop · host yasmin vossoughian, jared perlo, laura jarrett

he U.S. strikes in Iran are intensifying – from inside the country to the Strait of Hormuz. On Capitol Hill, lawmakers are asking how much of the targeting is being shaped by artificial intelligence. NBC News AI Fellow Jared Perlo explains the Defense Department’s AI strategy and who is responsible for “bad intelligence.” Plus: when a storm hits, the damage to a home can be devastating. But for hundreds of Oklahomans, the real shock came from their insurance provider. More than 600 families now allege State Farm quietly redefined "hail damage" to avoid paying claims. NBC News Chief Legal Correspondent Laura Jarrett has more on the lawsuit and why the state’s attorney general is now getting involved. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
