It’s truly amazing to think how far technology has come. We now live in an era where an AI tool exists that will write a pretty dang good podcast introduction, essay, or fundraising plan. Sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it? Well, it is … and it isn’t.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about ChatGPT and how you can use AI tools in nonprofit fundraising specifically, but also in university messaging, HR departments, classroom settings, and more. We’re sharing both how it can be helpful (e.g. creating an outline for a fundraising plan that you can then refine and fill in the blanks specific to your organization) as well as how it can be harmful.

What’s in this episode:

[03:19] What ChatGPT is, and how Brittny is using it in the nonprofit class she’s teaching

[06:37] Using ChatGPT to ask questions or write an outline (that you then edit and refine), and how ChatGPT can help nonprofits specifically

[10:02] How ChatGPT can generates new responses, and how this could potentially benefit (or harm, depending on your outlook) hiring and accomplishing tasks within jobs

[11:56] How AI tools can be harmful, why you can’t rely on an AI tool to have empathy or complete accuracy, and why you have to edit and refine it (we’re looking at you, Vanderbilt)

[17:28] Ethical considerations for nonprofits using AI, what happened when Nia asked ChatGPT to write a donor-centric and a community-centric fundraising appeal, and ChatGPT’s hilarious appeal for an Easter bunny rescue
