Before she was fired five days into her job as White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia spent much of the day trying to explain her past.
The job was short-lived, and so was the attention to her background. WIRED reports that Zacharia was listed as an adviser to a company linked to Kristi Noem. The company aims to use artificial intelligence for mining, a field where artificial intelligence is being pitched as a way to find and process rare earth minerals.
Neither the company nor Zacharia says she ever worked there. That denial puts the listing at the center of the questions surrounding her past, though the available reporting does not say how the listing came to appear.
Zacharia's brief tenure ended abruptly, and the listing emerged in the same period. WIRED's account centers on the conflict between a public record that shows her name attached to the company and the statements from both sides that she had no working relationship with it.
