In this episode of The Responsive Lab, we’re exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and human empathy with two visionary leaders at Virtuous: Gabe Cooper, CEO and Founder, and Nathan Chappell, Chief AI Officer.
They unpack the myths, ethics, and incredible potential of AI to help nonprofits grow generosity at scale, without sacrificing what makes fundraising meaningful. From automating repetitive work to enabling truly personal donor experiences, this conversation reframes the future of fundraising not as human or machine, but human plus machine.
Also in this episode, Gabe & Nathan share:
- What ethical AI really means in a nonprofit context
- How AI can free up fundraisers to focus on what matters most
- Real-world examples of AI driving donor engagement
- Why the future belongs to responsive, data-driven fundraising teams
