Intelligence gathering and analysis has always been fraught with obstacles. Today, advances in technology, such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, large-scale data generation, and influence operations in a cyber and interconnected world, demand rapid adaptation to maintain a competitive edge. . Key issues now include security, privacy, algorithmic bias, better data management, advanced analytical tools, and effective exploitation of open source information, all of which are critical to modern intelligence work. So this National Security Dialogue will address these concerns, seek answers to the following questions.
- How can intelligence agencies rapidly adopt emerging technologies to maintain a strategic advantage?
- What measures are necessary to address security, privacy, credibility and algorithmic bias within intelligence collection and analysis?
- How can the intelligence gathering process be improved to make better use of open source information?
