Former Intelligence Officer Dr. Anthony Vinci Presents his Book, “The Fourth Intelligence Revolution”

Dr. Anthony Vinci discusses his new book, The Fourth Intelligence Revolution: The Future of Espionage and the Battle to Save America, with celebrated scientist Nicholas Donofrio.

Dr. Vinci, a former senior intelligence officer, reveals how espionage is being transformed by a new global intelligence race, driven by AI and competition with China, and how this impacts all our lives.

The new global intelligence competition has brought espionage into our workplaces and our living rooms. Adversaries like China, Iran, and Russia have realized that the human element is the weakest link in our industrial and political infrastructure. As a result, they target all of us - stealing our financial data and medical records, eavesdropping on our conversations, and using platforms like TikTok and Hollywood movies to influence our opinions.

Dr. Anthony Vinci served as the first Chief Technology Officer and Associate Director for Capabilities at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). Earlier in his career he served in Iraq, Africa and Asia. After leaving the world of intelligence, Anthony became an executive at a private equity firm and CEO of a technology company. Dr. Vinci is an Adjunct Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security (CNAS) and received his PhD in International Relations from The London School of Economics.
