Could artificial intelligence help us tackle intractable social problems and create a more just and equitable world? Vilas Dhar, president and trustee of the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, believes so.
In this episode of the Center for Effective Philanthropy podcast, hosts Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette ask Dhar about his vision for how A.I. can play a pivotal role in promoting equity.
That now is the time for philanthropy and donors to step in, ensuring that the technology is built ethically, Dhar said
They address many of the fears and hesitations donors may have about A.I. and learn about the McGovern Foundation’s work to equip nonprofits with A.I. tools to magnify their impact.
