Suddenly, AI is everywhere. Whether it’s ChatGPT, your smartphone assistant, the way job applications are filtered, or the way images online are generated, the use of artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we perceive and interact with one another. But as this technology rapidly expands into all the aspects of our daily lives, what does it mean for our communities? What do we know about where and how AI is being used, the infrastructure required to support it, and the actual impacts on our health and well-being?

Join us for a robust conversation with grassroots and philanthropy leaders as they share what communities are seeing on the front lines of AI expansion — and how funders can follow their lead in ensuring that communities are resourced to meet this moment.

This conversation is for folks who are funders or philanthropic consultants. It is being hosted by Building Equity and Alignment for Environmental Justice (BEA) and the Health and Environmental Funders Network (HEFN), and co-sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay Funders Network, Funders for Justice, The Funders Network, and the Hyams Foundation.
