Seat at the Table: What Should a Family Board Ask About AI?
Seat at the Table: The Board
Family foundation boards bring strong values, long histories, and very different comfort levels with technology to the table. Trustees are being asked to weigh in on AI, sometimes before they've had a chance to use it themselves. This conversation explores what a family board should be asking about AI: about staff use, about grantees, about values and risk, and about the foundation's own role.
What we'll explore
The questions trustees are asking, and the ones they should be asking
How values-based and opinionated families are finding common ground
What good board-level oversight of AI looks like at a small foundation
Special guest: TBD
