Following a major public hack, OpenAI is making a bold and controversial push into the cybersecurity business. In today’s episode, Fortune Senior AI Reporter Emily Forlini breaks down the rollout of the "Astra Model," a tool designed to protect critical infrastructure—and open a massive new revenue stream for the company. But with the timing following the Hugging Face breach, big questions remain about the risks of giving AI control over our most crucial systems.
Next, we look at a bizarre change to Apple Maps. At the request of the Trump administration, Lake Superior has been renamed "Lake America" within the app.
Plus, we examine a warning from within the government. Pete Hegseth argues that Pentagon bureaucracy is driving the U.S. military into a "Soviet-style" decline. Reporter Sasha Rogelberg joins us to fact-check the claims. Finally, Energy Editor Jordan Blum reports on the unexpected oil exploration boom triggered by the chokepoint at the Strait of Hormuz.
