The Singularity War and How to Hack Minds (w/ Anthony Vinci)

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of artificial intelligence and information warfare on global intelligence and the concept of the 'Singularity War'.

Former senior intelligence officer and author of The Fourth Intelligence Revolution explores how artificial intelligence, big data, and information warfare are fundamentally reshaping global intelligence. He forsees the coming “Singularity War” — a future of fully autonomous intelligence and warfare systems. Now AI enables small groups or even individuals to carry out attacks once reserved for nation-states, including psychological manipulation. How do we defend against this? What tools does a democracy have that others don’t? Watch Mission Implausible on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MissionImplausiblePod
