The State Department, under Secretary Marco Rubio, is reportedly launching an AI-driven initiative to revoke the visas of foreign students who express views deemed supportive of Hamas.
What Happened: In a policy shift, the State Department will deploy artificial intelligence to analyze the social media activity of student visa holders, searching for signs of sympathy toward Hamas or other designated terrorist organizations, reported Axios, citing senior officials.
The effort, known as “Catch and Revoke,” will also review past arrests, school suspensions, and media reports on anti-Israel demonstrations to determine whether a visa should be revoked.
