Today's spies have the same important task as yesterday: they need to be invisible. But the difference is that identifying their adversaries has gone from human to AI.
Computer identification is becoming widespread, but it can be used to identify anyone as well as criminals. In the current era of digital identity tracking and social media, it is difficult for C.I.A. agents to disguise their identities to carry out missions. This era is abandoning the "meticulous work" of the past.
Agents no longer need to use fake documents and lies to get away with it, but need to think about how to fool the "chicken thief" AI.
According to Meyerriecks, at least 30 countries are capable of accurately identifying suspicious individuals in current CCTV camera systems, which means that counterintelligence tools have the upper hand in the global intelligence community's international game of hide-and-seek.
With the development of satellite tracking and geospatial intelligence, the truth is that human spies are likely to be unable to counter the next generation of AI.
Indeed, it is so easy for AI to identify a person's true identity.
Big Data Digest previously reported that computer vision identified a head frozen for five years. Recently, another criminal was caught at Jacky Cheung's concert.
