A call for action

Artificial Intelligence (AI)  will have a deep impact on philanthropy, from revolutionizing online fundraising, redefining the way we measure impact, to predicting the results of climate action, to name a few. Along with these benefits, AI also raises fundamental questions around the ethical and inclusive use of AI and the way it influences society.

Prof. Giuseppe Ugazio, holder of the Edmond de Rothschild Foundations Chair in Behavioural Philanthropy of the GSEM and Dr. J. Mönks, lecturer on emerging philanthropy at the University of Geneva, are convinced it requires urgently addressing a number of key issues including: unveiling the nuts and bolts of AI most suitable to assist philanthropic organizations; understanding the practical use AI in philanthropic organizations and grasping quickly-evolving behavior in the digital age; and defining principles for the ethical, inclusive and human centered use of AI.
