Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

We give emerging

fashion designers
a high quality,
easy-to-work-
with solution for
small-batch
ethical knitwear
manufacturing.
3. Apparel companies are expected to be global players. It is
challenging for companies to meet performance & aesthetic expectations, while
addressing compliance and sustainability needs across markets.
Ignoring ethical standards has consequences for brands.
Failure to establish ethical business practices in a brand can result in unacceptable
consequences that include both human and operational risks.
Sourcing ethically is not easy. Designers want to capitalize on this trend
but often don’t have the bandwidth to ‘dig deeper’ to understand how their
manufacturers work.
Ethical manufacturers are generally ill-prepared. Designers have a
hard time finding ethical manufacturers that understand international quality
standards, that can easily translate made-to-order items, and that can
communicate in their own language.
