DESCRIPTION: AI in Nonprofits: Myths, Needs, and Opportunities\n\nOrganizations of all sizes and missions are hearing the same fears and forecasts about artificial intelligence in the news, from claims that every organization is already using it to the threats it is replacing everyone's jobs. There are sensational articles popping up every week and it is no wonder many nonprofit staff feel nervous and unsure about how to cut through the noise and create space for strategic consideration. This session is designed to ensure that no matter your background or current work focus, you are able to join and lead conversations about AI in your organization, support the development of equitable policies and practices, and find opportunities to use AI appropriately.\n\nPresenting this session are NTEN’s CEO Amy Sample Ward and Director of Equity and Accountability Tristan Penn.
