Integrate MS AI into our 3rd party app
Is there a way to integrate AI (copilot) into our 3rd party app? Our app is used by large number of users to access technical content. They have to navigate through tons of content which is not very efficient. The AI for example could based on the user profile, push matching content on the top. This is just one example, there are many more. I am not sure whether MS NP division has any dedicated team who collaborate with NP organisations like us on such needs, is there a way to contact someone there? Luckily, I found this community while looking for ways to contact MS. I can already see some interesting discussions in different sections.
Leaping to Ai in Africa with less Internet infrastructure
Sayapafrica.org is the organization that I founded in California with a mission to assist, rebuild and help communities in 15 African countries. Our main issue is the connectivity. On the other hand, we would like to train and connect with our 6000 volunteers on the ground. We opened also STEM academies for African kids to learn to code and all want to try AI but with offline capabilities. Help help helpNonprofit Boards & AI Governance
Last week, had a great conversation with ZoeAmar and one thing we talked about was the need for nonprofits to add people to their boards experienced in ethics and who understand the technology. How are you making your board and governance "ai-ready" ? https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/nonprofit-community-blog/the-story-so-far-with-nonprofits-and-ai/ba-p/4055241Iceberg Ahead: The Unseen Data Divide in AI
85% of AI's training data comes from the global north, highlighting the digitalization gap of the global south. This imbalance is more than just a discrepancy; it represents a profound division that risks distorting AI's applicability and effectiveness across different global communities. As development professionals, how can we tackle this digitalization divide to ensure AI truly represents a diverse range of human experiences? What innovative strategies can you implement to integrate the unique cultural and digital landscapes of the global south into the AI development process?Introducing an AI Framework for an Equitable World

Since MS's Nonprofit Global Leaders Summit, I have been talking to many people in our organisation about the benefits of Gen AI and trying to allay fears that it is going to take their jobs. However, yesterday a person getting started with her career asked me an excellent and very valid question that I did not know how to answer. I thought I would bring it to this community to see if anyone had thoughts or ideas on how to respond to it. This person is a creative person. The question: "I understand that AI can help me do my job. However, I get immense job and self-satisfaction from the creative process and knowing that I am the one who created the content, design, whatever it might be. If I offload that to AI, where does the job satisfaction come in?" Thoughts?
