“Everybody should be thinking about AI, no matter what they do for a living.” - Lawrence H. Summers, Harvard Economist

I'm doing a personal project to collect hundred of newsletters about fundraising and to analyze and summarize with AI to find tips and best-pratices over time. I created a deep research prompt to find them and put them in a table format so I can choose which ones to include. I'm including the generic version of the Deep Research prompt as a PDF in case it is helpful for anyone else. Just put it into AI and ask it to modify for your specific topic you are wanting to research. Once it is modified, use your favorite deep research tool like Perplexity or OpenAI Deep Research. Let me know how it goes if your try it!

Come and learn about the latest ways to use AI at your nonprofits today during our live training. Some topics we are discussing. -How to find donors using Deep Research -How to speed up admin work with AI -How to create your own AI Agent in Microsoft Copilot See you there! https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83420703997

Hello all. Looking forward to sharing/ learning. I’m in the legal/ governance space with AI. Happy to connect!

You are responsible for AI outcomes Last month I was in a board room full of executives And someone shocked me when they just straight up said "I asked ChatGPT what to do, and just followed that" And I realized I had a new fear unlocked. Humans lose their ability to critically think when they rely on AI to replace their judgement. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗜 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 AI doesn't make decisions. Humans do. We all make decisions based on information and our experiences. AI can help you get the information faster but you shouldn't rely on it for judgment. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. And if you're using AI right now...you know it is a people pleaser. I've been calling it a 'say yes machine' for a long time. Because it always does what you ask and tries to give you the answer you're looking for. So depending on how you ask the question Will completely change the answer and recommendation. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀: Business leaders can't blame the algorithm for bias or harm. Engineers must bake transparency into systems from day one. Policymakers need real regulations, not lip service to innovation. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲? We govern machines. Machines don't govern us. Every tool in human history has been wielded by someone. That someone is accountable. No exceptions. No hiding. You are responsible: -------------------- What's a practical example of this... Do not ask ChatGPT if you should work on your marriage or leave your spouse.
