> This Week in Worcester spoke with multiple sources who confirmed that the military’s deployment of AI led to the missile strike against the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ school in Minab, a city in southern Iran, on Saturday. Ali Bahreini, Iran’s ambassador to the U.N. in Geneva, said ​the strike killed 150 students. There has been no independent confirmation of that death toll. > “The immediate theory is that the AI program included the school’s position based on older, archived intelligence. The logic behind the launch, and the mechanics of who authorized it is unclear.”
