Overall aim

An expert panel discussion to explore the potential and possibilities of artificial intelligence. Reflecting on recent developments, this discussion aims to get beyond the headlines to a strategic reflection on how organisations in the voluntary sector can make effective and responsible use of new tools and platforms.

Description

Our panel are global experts in the responsible development and use of AI. During our discussion, we'll cover a range of topics, including:

  • How to use AI responsibly when working with vulnerable people and communities
  • What are the impacts of human expertise and trustworthiness when we make use of AI, especially generative AI?
  • How might smaller organisations, with low data expertise and capacity, make use of AI?
  • What role could the voluntary sector have in bringing a wide array of voices and perspectives to the development and regulation of AI?
