Is it going to take over the world and make nonprofit work obsolete? Some peeps seem hyped, while others wanna unplug the mainframe, Office Space-style. 💻🚫
Well, never fear! With experience from computer engineering to working for the FBI in the White House (?!?), my guest Afua Bruce knows her bytes from her bits. Afua decrypts how bias gets baked into algorithms and breaks communities. But she also shares how nonprofits can responsibly use AI as a force for good and level up their impact with AI’s help. 👩🏿💻
Some of the key takeaways:
Top AI concerns include the invisibility of marginalized groups and scalable bias due to historical data and speed/scale of deployment.
Everyone can educate themselves on AI by trying tools, asking questions, and knowing when to turn systems off if they don't serve you.
Guidance for using AI ethically includes clarifying your strategy and values first, then evaluating if tools align.
AI may risk loss of critical thinking skills but it also presents opportunities like predictive analytics to improve services.
Bottom line: We got this, people! 💪 Ask questions, set guardrails, but don't let fear leave you behind. The tools ain't perfect but we can influence and improve. As Afua says, "...you still have agency in this process." ✊
