GENERATIVE AI AND SOCIAL IMPACT: THE ROLE OF BUSINESS

by Zahid Torres-Rahman | Business Fights Poverty
Jane Nelson | Corporate Responsibility Initiative, Harvard Kennedy School

In this paper, we highlight the emerging understanding of the potential opportunities and risks that generative AI brings for the lives, livelihoods and access to learning of vulnerable people and communities. 

We then offer a practical framework to guide business action: leveraging core business, philanthropy and policy advocacy to mitigate the risks and realise the social impact potential of generative AI. A human-centred, AI-enabled future that is more equitable and resilient is possible, but we need to act now.

This paper is intended to spark a conversation across our community and beyond on what is a rapidly evolving area.
