Exploring the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
In our last edition, we discussed how there are mixed views of AI in general and in the Charity sector, and also pointed out how charities can seek help and guidance from the Charity Excellence Framework on how to prepare for AI.
In the Summer, the NCVO and Microsoft UK shared findings from their recent AI event, specifically drawing on the shared challenges charities face in respect to AI but also how AI can unlock potential to boost the impact charities can make.
Specifically focusing on how AI can be utilised by smaller charities, insights from a keynote speech at the event included:
- Writing funding bids;
- Writing meeting minutes;
- Generating digital content.
A point which highlighted how to move forward with AI was to build knowledge. It was reported at the event that, in a survey, 35% of respondents indicated a need for training to upskill with AI, while 60% reported poor skills and capacity to engage with emerging tech trends.
