What AI Can and Can’t Do

✅ What AI Can Do (Support):

  • Help brainstorm content ideas for posts or outreach
  • Suggest clearer, simpler language
  • Draft newsletters, grant text, or social media captions
  • Translate content to another language (with caution)
  • Save time on repetitive tasks like summarizing reports
  • Create basic graphics or videos from templates

🎯 AI can help you work smarter, not harder.

❌ What AI Can’t Do (Replace):

  • Know your community’s experiences, culture, or needs
  • Reflect trauma-informed or inclusive language without your input
  • Build trust, relationships, or engagement
  • Understand your program’s goals, values, or nuances
  • Handle sensitive issues (immigration, safety, housing) responsibly
  • Replace good communication strategy or team insight

🚫 AI is not a shortcut to meaning or connection. That still comes from you.
