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.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

ChatGPT and the Future of Work - Clark Boyd Clark Boyd
Everyone is in agreement that ChatGPT (and other generative AI tools) will shape the future of work. Yet there is little consensus on exactly how, when, and to what extent this technology will change our world.
Businesses that extract maximum value from ChatGPT will use it as a collaborative tool for everything from brainstorming to technical maintenance.
For individuals, now is the time to pinpoint the skills the future professional will need to thrive in the AI age.
Check out this presentation to understand what ChatGPT is, how it will shape the future of work, and how you can prepare to take advantage.

2. THE LONDON RECOVERY PROGRAMME
Welcome
This presentation covers the
context for recovery, looks at the
issue of the Central Activities
Zone (CAZ) and then presents an
overview of the recovery
programme before presenting the
refined missions.
3. Recovery Missions
A recap of the framework for
the Recovery Programme,
and the refined missions for
Board comment and sign off.
1. The Context for Recovery 2. Central Activities Zone
Recovery takes place
alongside transition work and
the backdrop of the global
economy and ongoing work.
We have a particular and
urgent problem to consider
and respond to in the future
of the CAZ.
3. THE CONTEXT FOR RECOVERY
Transition & Recovery
The Transition Programme has
provided the foundations for
London’s recovery: for example
through workstreams on
business reopening, outbreak
control, arts and culture.
Recovery missions identify
priorities for collaborative working
on key shared priorities –
providing the focus for our
cross-London recovery
programme.
This is underpinned by significant ongoing work across GLA,
Boroughs and other partners of relevance to recovery, including on:
• Public Health
• Employment & Skills
• Policing & Public Safety
• VAWG
• Business Support
The Central Activities Zone
The Central Activities Zone
(CAZ) is an area of specific
concern given the unique
impacts of the pandemic.
These impacts on the CAZ will play a key part in London’s
economic future and global status. Addressing them will
require a coordinated approach to safeguarding in the short-
term and preparing for long-term change.
Key to London’s economic future
• Business Promotion
• Housing Development
• Homelessness
• Transport & Infrastructure
• Capital Investment
4. CENTRAL ACTIVITIES ZONE (CAZ) RECOVERY
Ongoing transition activities:
Coordinated and clear public
messaging.
Increasing public confidence
Understanding and supporting the future of the CAZ to protect London’s global position:
Developing an evidence base on the future role of the CAZ.
Safe public transport, Streetspace
and promotion of active travel.
Supporting greater visibility and
use of testing.
Supporting business through a second wave Securing support from Central Government
New policy and strategy development (across
planning, transport, culture, night-time economy,
regeneration and economic development).
The Mayor is commissioning a major study
and analysis of how the CAZ will be affected
by the pandemic and ensuing cultural /
economic change.
Initiatives to support business.
Understanding office staffing plans.
An extension to the business rates holiday, or a discount for
businesses in the central London area for the next year.
Targeted support for jobs and the workforce for retail,
hospitality, leisure and creative businesses.
Retention of tax-free shopping for EU nationals.
5. THE LONDON RECOVERY PROGRAMME
Missions-based approach
This approach is based on the work of the Institute for
Innovation and Public Purpose at University College
London. Missions should be time-bound and specific.
They should be designed to be bold, ambitious yet
realistic enough so that they can gather wide support
for delivery. The key is on fostering widespread
collaboration across different sectors.
A flexible and agile approach
Part of a missions-based approach is being honest that we cannot do
everything but are choosing to focus on a few key areas that might
really shift the dial. Missions may change and adapt in response to
emerging evidence and issues. Similarly, new missions may be
developed where appropriate.
6. THE LONDON RECOVERY PROGRAMME
We have one grand challenge
Restore confidence in the city, minimise the impact on
London’s communities and build back better the city’s
economy and society.
9 Missions, shaped by 3 key dimensions

3 key dimensions.

underpinned by strong and thriving
communities. (TBC)
