CSIS Technology and Intelligence Task Force
The CSIS Technology and Intelligence Task Force brings together leading experts from the intelligence, technology, national security, and research communities to explore the implications of emerging technologies for the U.S. intelligence community. These technologies include, but are not limited to, artificial intelligence, machine learning, cloud computing, and data analytics. The Task Force will generate an action plan to guide how the intelligence community leverages advanced technology to produce strategic intelligence and adapts to maintain the intelligence advantage over increasingly sophisticated rivals.
