Dehumanizing labels marginalize people rather than support them. The words we use to reference people should reflect their full identities.

At Rising Initiative, we love how AI can support nonprofits and we train many of our executive directors on how to use AI to help their nonprofits.
"Generative AI is a tool, and if it’s a useful tool, people will use it. You can resist and fight it, or you can accept this as what people will be doing from now on. And it could be a good thing. Funders get all the information they need in the formats they want, while nonprofits conserve their time and energy to focus on helping people, saving democracy, or anything else that’s more important than trying to count words in characters and other menial, pointless tasks that most grants require. That’s a good thing."
