AI at the National Security Agency - NSA

Global Surveillance in the Digital Age

This comprehensive examination of the NSA arrives at a critical moment in American history. We live in an era where the boundaries between foreign and domestic, public and private, security and liberty are increasingly blurred by technology that would have seemed like science fiction just a generation ago. Artificial intelligence processes billions of communications in milliseconds.
Quantum computers threaten to render current encryption obsolete. Nation-states wage war in cyberspace with weapons that can disable power grids and disrupt democratic elections. In this environment, the capabilities and limitations of our intelligence agencies have never been more consequential—or more poorly understood.

At the same time, I have also seen how the immense power of modern surveillance technologies can tempt even well-intentioned officials to exceed legal and ethical boundaries. The challenge for any democracy is ensuring that intelligence capabilities serve the public interest while remaining accountable to the people they are designed to protect.
