<![CDATA[This study develops a conceptual model integrating artificial intelligence (AI), imagery intelligence (IMINT), and an early warning system (EWS) within a strategic intelligence framework to address contemporary security threats. Adopting a qualitative conceptual approach based on a systematic literature review (SLR), the article synthesizes recent scholarship on AI, intelligence collection, and security governance in order to explain how the three components can be conceptually integrated into a single analytical flow. The findings indicate that AI improves image-processing speed, expands change-detection capacity, and strengthens the accuracy of object identification, thereby enabling EWS to operate faster and more predictively than conventional, manually driven analytical processes. However, AI deployment also introduces risks of algorithmic bias, false positives, limited explainability, and potential image manipulation, making human oversight indispensable rather than optional. The article proposes an AI-IMINT-EWS model consisting of four interrelated layers, acquisition, machine analysis, human verification, and early warning, that positions AI as an analytical accelerator, human analysts as strategic verifiers, and EWS as the integrative node for early warning. This model offers a conceptual contribution to the development of modern intelligence practice that is fast, accountable, and adaptive, while also opening an agenda for future empirical validation.]]>
