Here's Why Nonprofits Need to Understand AI Right Now
Sam, Dylan, and Matt share their experiences and insights on how each of them got started using AI, and then take a deep dive into the concept of prompts and explain how they are employed in conjunction with AI technology. The podcast concludes with an insightful interview featuring Kerrie Schram, the Executive Director of Kyrus Charities. Kerrie brings her expertise to the table, discussing how she has used AI to learn more about being a leader for a non-profit and how she uses ChatGPT daily to improve productivity.
The hosts discuss their individual paths to discovering and utilizing AI, specifically OpenAI's GPT-3 and its subsequent iteration, GPT-4. They note the differences between AI and traditional search engines, highlighting the conversational and personalized responses that AI provides.
Matt provides an analogy of the "coffee conundrum" to explain the concept of AI prompts. He emphasizes that for AI to provide a suitable response, one must be very clear and specific with the information given in the prompt.
They discuss the significance of being precise with AI prompts to ensure the best possible response. Moreover, they highlight that their goal is to share their experiences to help others realize the potential of AI in improving productivity, creativity, and speed in their work and personal lives.
The podcast hosts represent different perspectives on AI: Sam, who looks at AI as a way to increase his team's productivity and effectiveness; Matt, who examines AI from a technical systems point of view; and Dylan, who uses AI in creative applications such as audio and visuals.
The hosts introduce their guest, Keri Schram from Kyrus Charities, who shares her experience of using AI to learn about the nonprofit sector and enhance her workflow. She highlights the usefulness of asking AI to simplify complex concepts, akin to "explaining it to me like I'm a fifth grader," to facilitate understanding.
