washington - The US State Department deploys AI to monitor foreign students' social media for Hamas sympathizers, aiming to revoke visas based on anti-Semitic activities.

US State Department's AI Initiative

The US State Department plans to use artificial intelligence to track foreign students' social media presence for ties to Hamas sympathizers.

Key Points:

• Operation known as 'Catch and Revoke' aims to identify and withdraw visas.
• Authorities to check internal databases for visa holders previously arrested but allowed to stay.
• Monitoring news on anti-Israel demonstrations to locate individuals engaged in anti-Semitism.
• No visa revocations found since October 2023, raising concerns about law enforcement under the Biden administration.
