Spies, Lies and Algorithms: Author Talk With Amy Zegart
February 17, 2022 at 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm

“Today we face a critical juncture for American spy agencies, as big as 9/11 — only most people don’t know it,” says Amy B. Zegart, one of the country’s leading experts on intelligence. “New dangers come from tech, not terrorists. Emerging technologies like AI and social media are weakening the strong and empowering the weak, fundamentally changing dynamics of international conflict. To be blunt: The U.S. is losing its intelligence advantage.”
Join the World Affairs Council of Atlanta Thursday, February 17 at noon ET as it hosts Amy B. Zegart — a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute, former national security analyst (for MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, and NPR), and professor at Stanford University. Dr. Zegart will share insights and answer questions about America’s evolving intelligence threats, examining Chinese spying, the lack of intelligence expertise in Congress, cyber threats, and more.
