Ever find yourself intrigued by the potential of artificial intelligence to transform the way we connect with donors and enhance our fundraising efforts?
In this episode, Nathan discusses three ways that AI can help improve fundraising efforts:

1. Automate Everyday Tasks: AI is all about simplifying tasks, not complicating them. For instance, using the voice assistant on your phone (like Siri) to set reminders or send messages to donors can save you valuable time. This is a simple yet effective use of AI that doesn't cost anything extra.
   
2. Rough Draft Writing: AI can be used to create rough drafts of appeal letters, emails, and other correspondences. However, it's essential to remember that AI outputs should only be used as a starting point. Tone and voice differ greatly among individuals, so you need to review and adjust the drafts to ensure they align with your unique style.
   
3. Creating Presentations: AI can be a great help when creating presentations, especially for small teams. With AI, you can produce a basic layout and content for your presentation, saving you time and frustration. However, AI lacks the ability to introduce a personal touch or create a connection with your audience, so you will need to incorporate these elements yourself.
   

Remember, while AI can be a powerful tool, it's essential to use it wisely and factor in its limitations.
