Welcome to the Connected Church News!
This news item is part of the weekly top 5 news bulletin (from Week 2, Mar 2023) specially packaged for leaders of Nonprofits, Churches, and Faith-based Social Ventures.

Snapchat has announced that they are adding AI into their Snapchat+subscription plan by releasing a new tool called My AI, which is a chat bot that’s integrated with Chat GPT. And the announcement says, My AI can recommend birthday gift ideas, it can help you plan a hiking trip, it can suggest a recipe for dinner, and so on. What I like about this whole generative AI industry evolution is instead of, people going randomly into ChatGPT and asking questions individually, these abilities of AI are being built into tools that we use on a regular basis. And I think that is the best application of generative AI. Because you go into various tools with different intent, with different requirement. And when there is an AI assistant right there waiting to help you,it just makes a lot of sense.
