Hello Everyone,

Following our lively and insightful first discussion on September 12th, I'm excited to invite you to our next informal AI discussion in the humanitarian and development space.

šŸ—“ Date: Wednesday, October 23th ā° Time: 4:00 PM (Amman Time) šŸ“ Platform: Microsoft Teams

Please sign up hear https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/be3e6a6e-fe26-4f93-ab9b-6f66135c3fdc@24dab2fd-f07e-4323-999e-19ea8e03cd22

During our last chat, we covered a wide range of topics, including ethical AI considerations, practical use cases, data protection challenges, and the opportunities and risks of AI in humanitarian work. It was fantastic to hear from such a diverse group, sharing insights and experiences across different sectors and contexts.

For this follow-up discussion, here’s what we’re aiming to cover:

Recap of key takeaways from the last discussion
Deep dive into practical AI use cases and lessons learned
Addressing emerging concerns around AI data governance and consent
Open Q&A: sharing updates, challenges, and success stories from your AI projects

As always, this will be an open space under Chatham House rules—speak freely, but please don't attribute comments to specific individuals outside this meeting.

Feel free to invite others who might be interested, and if you have any specific questions or topics you'd like to address, please share them with me beforehand.

Looking forward to another engaging session!

Best regards, Thomas Byrnes Contact: thomas@marketimpact.org Founder, AidGPT.org | Lead Consultant, Market Impact

Thank you so much for organising again, Thomas! I’m afraid I’m unable to join next week.
In the meantime, all the best for the event in Barcelona! ā˜ŗļø
