AIn't We Funny (The AI Episode)
Description
The future is here. Artificial Intelligence is starting to infiltrate every industry—including the nonprofit world—and it's here to stay. What is the good, bad, and ugly of using this new technology in fundraising? 👊Punchline: There is no easy button when it comes to AI in fundraising. Embrace the technology, but remember it can't replace human connection. AI is not a saving grace, it is a tool meant to help us be more effective and efficient—and we must use it appropriately, responsibly, and ethically.
