Analyst Talk - Open Secrets - Don’t Just Trust AI, Always Verify Episode: 00271 Released on June 16, 2025 Description: In this third installment of the Open Secrets series on Analyst Talk with Jason Elder, expert Jan Mondale discusses the evolving intersection of open-source intelligence (OSINT) and artificial intelligence. From personal experiences using AI tools like ChatGPT for medical research to broader implications for law enforcement analysts, Jan and Jason explore the power and pitfalls of integrating large language models into investigative workflows. Jan emphasizes the timeless importance of critical thinking, source validation, and ethical use—whether you're verifying a suspect's address or navigating the risks of misinformation. They also touch on AI's role in cybersecurity, translation, threat detection, and even the risks posed by overly trusting social media.
Key topics include:
- Verifying AI-generated information
- How OSINT and AI compare in investigative reliability
- AI's utility in law enforcement and cyber threat analysis
- Why analysts must remain smarter than the tools they use
Whether you're AI-curious or a seasoned OSINT pro, this episode challenges you to think deeper about the tools at your disposal—and how to use them wisely. [Note: Description produced by ChatGPT.]
