Israel hacked Tehran's own street cameras and fed years of footage into AI to map every move Khamenei made. By the time the strike launched, the targeting data was real-time. I break down exactly how it worked. Plus, Bill Gates's ties to Jeffrey Epstein, Ray-Ban Meta footage being watched by contractors (yes, really), and how AI can help you fight your medical bills. I also want to talk to Sarah from Colorado. She has a drone problem. Specifically, one is being flown outside her bathroom window. She's pretty sure she knows who's doing it. I give her the tools to find out.

Plus, the AI video that has Hollywood saying "it is over," the $7 billion toilet company that’s now an AI goldmine, and Samsung’s flip phone returns. Also, Tim Boucher went all in on AI as a creative experiment, cranking out 125 ebooks and 40 music albums to see what these tools could really do. He even testified before the U.S. Copyright Office about it. But was it worth it?
